Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

The following report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Forward-looking statements are statements that predict or describe future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. All of our projections in this quarterly report are forward-looking statements. You can generally identify forward-looking statements as statements containing the words "believe," "expect," "will," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "project," "assume" or other similar expressions. You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements because the matters they describe are subject to known (and unknown) risks, uncertainties and other unpredictable factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our forward-looking statements are based on the limited information currently available to us and speak only as of the date on which this report was filed with the SEC. Our continued internet posting or subsequent distribution of this dated report does not imply continued affirmation of the forward-looking statements included in it. We undertake no obligation, and we expressly disclaim any obligation, to issue any updates to our forward-looking statements, even if subsequent events cause our expectations to change regarding the matters discussed in those statements. Future events are inherently uncertain. Moreover, it is particularly difficult to predict business activity levels at the Resort with any certainty. Accordingly, our projections in this quarterly report are subject to particularly high uncertainty. Our projections should not be regarded as legal promises, representations or warranties of any kind whatsoever. Over time, our actual results, performance or achievements will likely differ from the anticipated results, performance or achievements that are expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, and such differences might be significant and harmful to your interests.

SALAMANDER INNISBROOK, LLC

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of business

 

On July 16, 2007, Salamander Innisbrook, LLC (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), together with its affiliates, Salamander Innisbrook Securities, LLC, and Salamander Innisbrook Condominium, LLC (collectively, the “Buyer”) completed the purchase of the Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club (the “Resort”) and all of the equity interest in Golf Host Securities, Inc.

 

We assumed control and operation of the Rental Pool Lease Operations (the “Rental Pool”) which is a securitized pool of condominiums owned by participating condominium owners (the “Participating Owners”) and rented as hotel rooms to guests of the Resort; an average of 446 owners or 556 hotel rooms participate at any given time. The Rental Pool obligated the Company to make quarterly distributions of a percentage of room revenues under the Amended and Restated Innisbrook Rental Pool Master Lease Agreement, dated January 1, 2004 (the “Master Lease” or “MLA”). Other resort facilities include four 18-hole golf courses, four restaurants, three convention facilities, a health spa, fitness center, tennis and recreation facilities, themed water park and five swimming pools.

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying interim condensed financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and  the instructions of Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, consequently, do not include all disclosures normally provided in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Accordingly, these condensed financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

In the opinion of management, the condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.   These results are not necessarily indicative of results for any other period or for a full year.  It is important to note that the Company’s business is seasonal.

 

As a destination golf resort, open year round, the Resort’s performance is sensitive to weather conditions and seasonality as well as general trends in the economy, with any economic downturn adversely affecting operating results. Our operations are seasonal with the highest volume of revenue generated in the first two quarters of each calendar year. 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.

 

Note 2. Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable consist of the following as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

 

   March 31, 2012   December 31, 2011 
   (Unaudited)     
         
Trade accounts receivable  $3,418,119   $1,591,984 
Less allowance for bad debts   (117,958)   (111,083)
Other receivables   348,903    502,111 
   $3,649,064   $1,983,012

Note 3. Property, Buildings and Equipment

 

Property, buildings and equipment consist of the following as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

 

   March 31, 2012   December 31, 2011 
   (Unaudited)     
         
Land and land improvements  $16,645,171   $16,645,171 
Buildings   24,961,772    24,961,772 
Furniture, fixtures and equipment   7,952,997    7,952,997 
Construction in progress   58,680    37,685 
    49,618,620    49,597,625 
Less accumulated depreciation   (9,611,881)   (9,046,325)
   $40,006,739   $40,551,300 

 

Note 4. Intangibles

 

Intangible assets represent the value of the following contractual relationships acquired in connection with the acquisition of the Resort. The intangible assets are being amortized over the specific term or benefit period of each related contract.

 

       March 31,   December 31, 
Intangible Assets   Amortization Period   2012   2011 
       (Unaudited)     
             
Water Contract   None since renewable in perpetuity   $2,030,000   $2,030,000 
Rental Pool   77.5 months    9,481,717    9,481,717 
Trade Name   None since renewable in perpetuity    2,300,000    2,300,000 
        13,811,717    13,811,717 
Less accumulated amortization       (7,604,963)   (7,336,855)
       $6,206,754   $6,474,862 

 

Note 5. Long-term Obligations

 

Leases - Leases, which transfer substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership of property, are classified as capital leases. Assets and liabilities are recorded at amounts equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments at the beginning of the lease term. Interest expense relating to the lease liabilities is recorded to affect constant rates of interest over the terms of the leases.

 

Leases, which do not transfer substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership of property, are classified as operating leases, and the related rentals are charged to expense as incurred.

 

Master Lease Refurbishment Program – On July 16, 2007, the Company assumed a liability to certain condominium owners under the refurbishment program committed to in the Rental Pool Master Lease Agreement (“MLA”). The liability of $29,111 represents the Company’s obligation to pay certain Rental Pool participants an amount equal to 25% of the cost to refurbish their respective units. Principal and interest payments are due quarterly for the five year repayment period of the program.

 

Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Contingencies

 

In the normal course of our operations, we are subject to claims and lawsuits. Our former insurance carrier has requested reimbursement of monies from us that they paid in 2010 to settle certain claims asserted against us. We believe the request for reimbursement has no basis and, through our legal counsel, have denied the insurance carrier’s request for reimbursement and we intend to fully defend our position. The outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time. We believe this matter will not have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations, and accordingly, there have been no adjustments to the accompanying condensed financial statements as of March 31, 2012 for the effects of this matter.

 

8
 

 

PGA Tour Event

 

Innisbrook Resort has been the site of a PGA TOUR event since 1990. The annual event typically takes place in March, our peak demand month. Transitions Optical, presenting sponsor of the PGA TOUR event for the past three years, did not exercise its option as sponsor beyond the March 2012 event. Because the Innisbrook Resort event is so highly regarded by the United States and foreign-based PGA TOUR players (strength of the Copperhead Golf Course, superior accommodations, place in the PGA TOUR’s “Florida Swing” schedule), those associated with the event are confident that a viable sponsor will be in place well in advance of the 2013 event. It should be noted that the combined resources of the PGA TOUR, the Copperheads and Salamander Hotels and Resorts/Innisbrook Resort have been deployed in a concerted effort to secure a new partner. We fully expect to continue to be the site of a PGA TOUR event for many years to come. Because the PGA TOUR event is held during our peak demand month, we do not anticipate any adverse financial impact in the unlikely event that the PGA TOUR event is not held at Innisbrook Resort in future years.

 

Note 7. Related Party Transactions

 

We paid management fees to an affiliate of $384,051 and $358,115 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expense.

 

At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the amounts due (to)/from affiliates were $(7,472) and $84,003 respectively, which are due on demand.

RENTAL POOL LEASE OPERATIONS

 

The operation of the Rental Pool is tied closely to the Resort Operation. The MLA provides for quarterly distribution of a percentage of the Company room revenues to participating condominium owners (“Participants”). Because the participants share a percentage of the Company’s room revenue, the condominium units allowing Rental Pool participation are deemed securities. However, there is no market for these securities other than the normal real estate market. Since the security is real estate, no dividends have been paid or will be. However, Participants are entitled to a contractual distribution paid quarterly, as defined in the lease agreements, for the Company’s right to use the Participants’ condominium units in resort operations.

1. Rental Pool Lease Operations

 

Organization and Operations

 

The Company follows accounting policies that require estimates that are based on assumptions and judgment, which affect revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingencies in our financial statements. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from these estimates due to different conditions.

 

The Rental Pool operation is highly dependent upon the operations of the Resort, and likewise, the Resort is also dependent upon the continued participation of condominium owners in the Rental Pool. Additionally, the Rental Pool and Resort are both impacted by the general economic conditions related to the destination resort industry.

 

The Rental Pool consists of condominiums at the Resort which are leased by the Company from their owners and used as hotel accommodations for the Resort. The Company has assumed the Master Lease Agreement (“MLA”) from the predecessor owner which provides that on an annual basis each Participant may elect to participate in the Rental Pool for the following year by signing an Annual Lease Agreement (“ALA”). Any condominium unit owner who does not sign the ALA is not permitted to participate in the Rental Pool for the following year. Under the MLA, 40% of the Adjusted Gross Revenues, as defined in the MLA, are distributed to the Rental Pool Participants and the remaining 60% is retained by the Company.

 

The Lessors’ Advisory Committee (“LAC”) consists of nine Participants who are elected by the Participants to advise the Company of Rental Pool Matters and to negotiate amendments to the lease agreement, the Annual Lease Agreement (“ALA”) and the MLA.

 

The Rental Pool consists of two funds: the Distribution Fund and the Maintenance Escrow Fund. The Distribution Fund balance sheet primarily reflects amounts receivable from the Company for the Rental Pool distribution payable to Participants and amounts due to the Maintenance Escrow Fund. The operations of the Distribution Funds reflect Participants’ earnings in the Rental Pool. The Maintenance Escrow Fund reflects the accounting for certain escrowed assets of the Participants and, therefore, has no operations. It consists primarily of amounts escrowed by Participants or due to the Distribution Fund to meet escrow requirements, fund the carpet care reserve and maintain the interior of the units.

 

In addition, the MLA provided to the Participants who refurbished units entering the Rental Pool during 2005, the Company assumed the obligation to reimburse the Participants an amount up to 25% of the actual unit refurbishment costs, plus interest at a rate of 2.5% per annum.

 

The Resort has initiated a Phase One Turnkey Refurbishment Program of condominiums that participated in the Phase One Turnkey Refurbishment Program in 2000. The improvement of furnishings, soft goods and fixtures plus other upgrades in bathrooms and living areas will bring these rooms to the overall quality level of more recent phases of room renovations. This project, when combined with the $26 million investment Salamander has made to modernize the Resort and the Innisbrook Condominium Association’s lobby and hallway renovation program, will provide an even greater number of quality accommodations for all overnight clientele thereby continuing to enhance Innisbrook’s growing reputation as one of the finest resorts in Florida.

 

Maintenance Escrow Fund Accounts

 

The MLA generally provides that 90% of the occupancy fees earned by each Participant are ultimately deposited in that Participant’s Maintenance Escrow Fund account. The occupancy fee percentage deposited into the Fund was reduced to 40% in 2012 as was agreed to and amended by the 2012 Annual Lease Agreement. The account provides funds for payment of amounts that are due from all Participants for maintenance and refurbishment services for or related to their condominium unit. In the event that a Participant’s balance falls below the amount necessary to pay for maintenance and replacements in the Participants unit, the Participant is required to restore the escrow balance to a defined minimum level. The MLA requires specific fund balances be maintained, by unit type, size and age of refurbishment.

The LAC, subject to the restriction in the MLA, invests the Maintenance Escrow Fund on behalf of the Participants. Income earned on the investments of the Maintenance Escrow Funds is allocated proportionately to the respective Maintenance Escrow Fund accounts and paid quarterly through the Distribution Fund. The funds are held in certificates of deposits.

 

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

 

General

 

We operate Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club (the “Resort”) in Innisbrook, Florida, which contains 1,216 condominium units of which all have been sold to third parties or to affiliates of the Company. A large number of the condominium units, 556, 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 is owner-occupied. Other resort property owned by the Company and its affiliates include golf courses, restaurants, tennis courts, a spa and fitness center, swimming pools, conference center facilities as well as administrative offices.

 

Results of Operations

 

The Resort is a destination golf resort that appeals to group and transient guests within all market segments. The Resort provides condominium accommodations, food and beverage dining locations (three restaurants, room service, banquet and/or catering options) and recreational entertainment to members, business meetings, group guests, leisure guests and their families. The Resort offers room-only rates, golf packages, and family vacation packages.

 

As a destination golf resort, open year round, the Resort’s performance is sensitive to weather conditions and seasonality as well as general trends in the economy, with any economic downturn adversely affecting operating results. The Company’s operations are seasonal with the highest volume of revenue generated in the first two quarters of each calendar year. 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.

For the first quarter of 2012, Innisbrook revenues continued to improve over the previous year. Top line revenues of $12,795,604 exceeded 2011 by $858,438 or 7.2%. Due to a more directed sales effort our Golf Package and Meeting Group segments grew 22.4% and 4%, respectively, over the prior period.

 

Costs and Expenses were up for the three month period year over year but were down as a relative percentage of overall revenue. Net Income of $1,771,272 was up when compared to the prior year Net Income of $1,170,027, an increase of $601,245 or 51.4%, indicating that expenditures continued to be well maintained at the Resort.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Future operating costs and planned expenditures for capital additions and improvements are expected to be adequately funded by cash generated by the Resort’s operations, funding from our sole member or affiliates’ current cash reserves.

 

Our revenue is not considered to be dependent on any individual or small group of customers, the loss of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions and select accounting policies that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These accounting policies have been described on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, and there have been no material changes in the three ended March 31, 2012.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB that are adopted by the company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the company’s financial statements upon adoption.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act (defined below)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

In addition, our management with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have determined that no change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during or subsequent to the quarter ended March 31, 2012 that has materially affected, or is (as that term is defined in Rules 13(a)-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
