TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For
the Quarterly Period Ended June 30, 2017
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General
The
accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q for quarterly
reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Operating results for the three months ended
June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018. For
further information, refer to the financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.
Organization
WNC
Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 9 (the
“Partnership”) is a California Limited Partnership
formed under the laws of the State of California on July 17, 2001
and commenced operations on August 3, 2001. The Partnership was
formed to acquire limited partnership interests in other limited
partnerships ("Local Limited Partnerships") which own multi-family
housing complexes (“Housing Complexes”) that are
eligible for Federal low income housing tax credits (“Low
Income Housing Tax Credits”). The local general partners (the
“Local General Partners”) of each Local Limited
Partnership retain responsibility for maintaining, operating and
managing the Housing Complex. Each Local Limited Partnership is
governed by its agreement of limited partnership (the “Local
Limited Partnership Agreement”).
The
general partner of the Partnership is WNC & Associates, Inc.
(“Associates” or the “General Partner”).
The chairman and the president of Associates own all of the
outstanding stock of Associates. The business of the Partnership is
conducted primarily through the General Partner, as the Partnership
has no employees of its own.
The
Partnership shall continue in full force and effect until December
31, 2062, unless terminated prior to that date, pursuant to the
partnership agreement or law.
The
financial statements include only activity relating to the business
of the Partnership, and do not give effect to any assets that the
partners may have outside of their interests in the Partnership, or
to any obligations, including income taxes, of the
partners.
The
partnership agreement authorized the sale of up to 25,000 units of
limited partnership interest (“Partnership Units”) at
$1,000 per Partnership Unit. The offering of Partnership Units
concluded in July 1994, at which time 15,325 Partnership Units
representing subscriptions in the amount of $15,316,125, net of
dealer discounts of $7,350 and volume discount of $1,525, had been
sold. The General Partner has a 0.1% interest in operating profits
and losses, taxable income and losses, cash available for
distribution from the Partnership and Low Income Housing Tax
Credits of the Partnership. The investors (the “Limited
Partners”) in the Partnership will be allocated the remaining
99.9% of these items in proportion to their respective investments.
As of June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, a total of 15,255 and
15,289 Partnership Units, respectively, remain
outstanding.

For

(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES,
continued
The
proceeds from the disposition of any of the Housing Complexes will
be used first to pay debts and other obligations per the respective
Local Limited Partnership Agreement. Any remaining proceeds will
then be paid to the Partnership. The sale of a Housing Complex may
be subject to other restrictions and obligations. Accordingly,
there can be no assurance that a Local Limited Partnership will be
able to sell its Housing Complex. Even if it does so, there can be
no assurance that any significant amounts of cash will be
distributed to the Partnership. Should such distributions occur,
the Limited Partners will be entitled to receive distributions from
the proceeds remaining after payment of Partnership obligations and
funding reserves, equal to their capital contributions and their
return on investment (as defined in the Partnership Agreement). The
General Partner would then be entitled to receive proceeds equal to
its capital contributions from the remainder. Any additional sale
or refinancing proceeds will be distributed 90% to the Limited
Partners (in proportion to their respective investments) and 10% to
the General Partner.
Risks and Uncertainties
An
investment in the Partnership and the Partnership’s
investments in Local Limited Partnerships and their Housing
Complexes are subject to risks. These risks may impact the tax
benefits of an investment in the Partnership, and the amount of
proceeds available for distribution to the Limited Partners, if
any, on liquidation of the Partnership’s investments. Some of
those risks include the following:
The Low
Income Housing Tax Credits rules are extremely complicated.
Noncompliance with these rules results in the loss of future Low
Income Housing Tax Credits and the fractional recapture of Low
Income Housing Tax Credits already taken. In most cases the annual
amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits that an individual can use
is limited to the tax liability due on the person’s last
$25,000 of taxable income. The Local Limited Partnerships may be
unable to sell the Housing Complexes at a price which would result
in the Partnership realizing cash distributions or proceeds from
the transaction. Accordingly, the Partnership may be unable to
distribute any cash to its Limited Partners. Low Income Housing Tax
Credits may be the only benefit from an investment in the
Partnership.
The
Partnership has invested in a limited number of Local Limited
Partnerships. Such limited diversity means that the results of
operation of each single Housing Complex will have a greater impact
on the Partnership. With limited diversity, poor performance of one
Housing Complex could impair the Partnership’s ability to
satisfy its investment objectives. Each Housing Complex is subject
to mortgage indebtedness. If a Local Limited Partnership failed to
pay its mortgage, it could lose its Housing Complex in foreclosure.
If foreclosure were to occur during the first 15 years (the
“Compliance Period”), the loss of any remaining future
Low Income Housing Tax Credits, a fractional recapture of prior Low
Income Housing Tax Credits, and a loss of the Partnership’s
investment in the Housing Complex would occur. The Partnership is a
limited partner or a non-managing member of each Local Limited
Partnership. Accordingly, the Partnership will have very limited
rights with respect to management of the Local Limited
Partnerships. The Partnership will rely totally on the Local
General Partners. Neither the Partnership’s investments in
Local Limited Partnerships, nor the Local Limited
Partnerships’ investments in Housing Complexes, are readily
marketable. To the extent the Housing Complexes receive government
financing or operating subsidies, they may be subject to one or
more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining tenants for
the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases;
limitations on cash distributions; limitations on sales or
refinancing of Housing Complexes; limitations on transfers of
interests in Local Limited Partnerships; limitations on removal of
Local General Partners; limitations on subsidy programs; and
possible changes in applicable regulations. Uninsured casualties
could result in loss of property and Low Income Housing Tax Credits
and recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits previously taken.
The value of real estate is subject to risks from fluctuating
economic conditions, including employment rates, inflation, tax,
environmental, land use and zoning policies, supply and demand of
similar properties, and neighborhood conditions, among
others.

NOTES
TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
For

(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES,
continued
The
ability of Limited Partners to claim tax losses from the
Partnership is limited. The IRS may audit the Partnership or a
Local Limited Partnership and challenge the tax treatment of tax
items. The amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits and tax losses
allocable to the limited partners could be reduced if the IRS were
successful in such a challenge. The alternative minimum tax could
reduce tax benefits from an investment in the Partnership. Changes
in tax laws could also impact the tax benefits from an investment
in the Partnership and/or the value of the Housing
Complexes.
The
Partnership currently has insufficient working capital to fund its
operations. Associates has agreed to continue providing advances
sufficient enough to fund the operations and working capital
requirements of the Partnership through August 31,
2018.
Anticipated
future and existing cash resources of the Partnership are not
sufficient to pay existing liabilities of the Partnership. However,
substantially all of the existing liabilities of the Partnership
are payable to the General Partner and/or its affiliates. Though
the amounts payable to the General Partner and/or its affiliates
are contractually currently payable, the Partnership anticipates
that the General Partner and/or its affiliates will not require the
payment of these contractual obligations until capital reserves are
in excess of the aggregate of then existing contractual obligations
and then anticipated future foreseeable obligations of the
Partnership. The Partnership would be adversely affected should the
General Partner and/or its affiliates demand current payment of the
existing contractual obligations and or suspend services for this
or any other reason.
No
trading market for the Partnership Units exists or is expected to
develop. Limited Partners may be unable to sell their Partnership
Units except at a discount and should consider their Partnership
Units to be a long-term investment. Individual Limited Partners
will have no recourse if they disagree with actions authorized by a
vote of the majority of Limited Partners.
Exit Strategy
The
Compliance Period for a Housing Complex is generally 15 years
following construction or rehabilitation completion. Associates was
one of the first in the industry to offer syndicated investments in
Low Income Housing Tax Credits. The initial programs have completed
their Compliance Periods.
Upon
the sale of a Local Limited Partnership interest or Housing Complex
after the end of the Compliance Period, there would be no recapture
of Low Income Housing Tax Credits. A sale prior to the end of the
Compliance Period could result in recapture if certain conditions
are not met. One of the remaining Housing Complexes has completed
its 15-year Compliance Period.
With
that in mind, the General Partner is continuing its review of the
Housing Complexes. The review considers many factors, including
extended use requirements (such as those due to mortgage
restrictions or state compliance agreements), the condition of the
Housing Complexes, and the tax consequences to the Limited Partners
from the sale of the Housing Complexes.
Upon
identifying those Housing Complexes with the highest potential for
a successful sale, refinancing or re-syndication, the Partnership
expects to proceed with efforts to liquidate them. The objective is
to maximize the Limited Partners’ return wherever possible
and, ultimately, to wind down the Partnership as Low Income Housing
Tax Credits are no longer available. Local Limited Partnership
interests may be disposed of any time by the General Partner in its
discretion. While liquidation of the Housing Complexes continues to
be evaluated, the dissolution of the Partnership was not imminent
as of June 30, 2017.
As of
March 31, 2017, the Partnership sold its Local Limited Partnership
interests in Byhalia Estates, L.P. (“Byhalia”), Mendota
I, L.P. (“Mendota”), Villas of Palm, L.P.
(“Villas of Palm”), Preservation Partners III Limited
Partnership (“Preservation”), Calico Terrace Limited
Partnership (“Calico Terrace”), and McPherson Housing
Associates, L.P. (“McPherson”). The Compliance Period
for Calico Terrace expires in 2017. The respective purchasers have
guaranteed that the LLP will stay in compliance with the Low Income
Housing Tax Credit code, therefore there is no risk of recapture to
the investors of the Partnership.

During
the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Partnership sold its
Local Limited Partnership interest in Parker Estates, L.P.
(“Parker Estates”). Parker Estates was appraised for
$615,000 and had a mortgage balance of $836,452 as of December 31,
2016. The Partnership received $32,000 in cash proceeds which was
used to pay accrued asset management fees. The Partnership incurred
$2,850 in sales related expenses which were netted against the sale
proceeds to calculate the gain on sale. The Partnership’s
investment balance is zero; therefore a gain of $29,150 was
recorded during the period. The Compliance Period for Parker
Estates has been completed; therefore there is no risk of credit
recapture to the investors of the Partnership.
During
the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Partnership sold its
Local Limited Partnership interest in Harbor Pointe, L.P
(“Harbor Pointe”). Harbor Pointe was appraised for
$1,190,000 and had a mortgage balance of $1,965,368 as of December
31, 2016. The Partnership received $45,000 in cash proceeds, of
which $43,500 was used to pay accrued asset management fees and
$1,500 was placed in the Partnership’s reserves for future
operating expenses. The Partnership incurred $2,650 in sales
related expenses which were netted against the sale proceeds to
calculate the gain on sale. The Partnership’s investment
balance is zero; therefore a gain of $42,350 was recorded during
the period. The Compliance Period for Harbor Pointe expires in
2018. Recapture Guarantee Surety Bonds were issued to the
Purchasers to guarantee the repayment of the recaptured tax credits
and interests arising from any non-compliance as provided in
Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code arising after the date of
the sale.
During
the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Partnership sold its
Local Limited Partnership interest in Selman Place, L.P.
(“Selman Place”). Selman Place was appraised for
$725,000 and had a mortgage balance of $2,201,010 as of December
31, 2016. The Partnership received $31,200 in cash proceeds, of
which $29,700 was used to pay accrued asset management fees and
$1,500 was placed in the Partnership’s reserves for future
operating expenses. The Partnership incurred $2,650 in sales
related expenses which were netted against the sale proceeds to
calculate the gain on sale. The Partnership’s investment
balance is zero; therefore a gain of $28,550 was recorded during
the period. The Compliance Period for Selman Place expires in 2017.
Recapture Guarantee Surety Bonds were issued to the Purchasers to
guarantee the repayment of the recaptured tax credits and interests
arising from any non-compliance as provided in Section 42 of the
Internal Revenue Code arising after the date of the
sale.

The
proceeds from the disposition of any of the Housing Complexes will
be used first to pay debts and other obligations per the respective
Local Limited Partnership Agreement. Any remaining proceeds will
then be paid to the partners of the Local Limited Partnership,
including the Partnership, in accordance with the terms of the
particular Local Limited Partnership Agreement. The sale of a
Housing Complex may be subject to other restrictions and
obligations. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that a Local
Limited Partnership will be able to sell its Housing Complex. Even
if it does so, there can be no assurance that any significant
amounts of cash will be distributed to the Partnership, as the
proceeds first would be used to pay Local Limited Partnership
obligations and funding of reserves.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES,

Method of Accounting for Investments in Local Limited
Partnerships
The
Partnership accounts for its investments in Local Limited
Partnerships using the equity method of accounting, whereby the
Partnership adjusts its investment balance for its share of the
Local Limited Partnerships’ results of operations and for any
contributions made and distributions received. The Partnership
reviews the carrying amount of an individual investment in a Local
Limited Partnership for possible impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such
investment may not be recoverable. Recoverability of such
investment is measured by the estimated value derived by
management, generally consisting of the sum of the remaining future
Low Income Housing Tax Credits estimated to be allocable to the
Partnership and the estimated residual value to the Partnership. If
an investment is considered to be impaired, the Partnership reduces
the carrying value of its investment in any such Local Limited
Partnership. The accounting policies of the Local Limited
Partnerships, generally, are expected to be consistent with those
of the Partnership. Costs incurred by the Partnership in acquiring
the investments were capitalized as part of the investment and were
being amortized over 30 years.
“Equity
in losses of Local Limited Partnerships” for the periods
ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 has been recorded by the Partnership.
Management’s estimate for the three-month periods is based on
either actual unaudited results reported by the Local Limited
Partnerships or historical trends in the operations of the Local
Limited Partnerships. Equity in losses of Local Limited
Partnerships allocated to the Partnership is not recognized to the
extent that the investment balance would be adjusted below zero. If
the Local Limited Partnerships report net income in future years,
the Partnership will resume applying the equity method only after
its share of such net income equals the share of net losses not
recognized during the period(s) the equity method was suspended
(see Note 2).
In
accordance with the accounting guidance for the consolidation of
variable interest entities, the Partnership determines when it
should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a
variable interest entity (VIE) in its financial statements, and
when it should disclose information about its relationship with a
VIE. The analysis that must be performed to determine which entity
should consolidate a VIE focuses on control and economic factors. A
VIE is a legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets,
which must be consolidated by a company if it is the primary
beneficiary because it has (1) the power to direct the activities
of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic
performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or receive
benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If
multiple unrelated parties share such power, as defined, no party
will be required to consolidate the VIE. Further, the guidance
requires continual reconsideration of the primary beneficiary of a
VIE.
Based
on this guidance, the Local Limited Partnerships in which the
Partnership invests meet the definition of a VIE because the owners
of the equity at risk in these entities do not have the power to
direct their operations. However, management does not consolidate
the Partnership's interests in these VIEs, as it is not considered
to be the primary beneficiary since it does not have the power to
direct the activities that are considered most significant to the
economic performance of these entities. The Partnership currently
records the amount of its investment in these Local Limited
Partnerships as an asset on its balance sheets, recognizes its
share of partnership income or losses in the statements of
operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of
these investments in its financial statements. The Partnership's
balance in investment in Local Limited Partnerships, plus the risk
of recapture of tax credits previously recognized on these
investments, represents its maximum exposure to loss. The
Partnership's exposure to loss on these Local Limited Partnerships
is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the
underlying Housing Complexes as well as the strength of the Local
General Partners and their guarantee against credit recapture to
the investors in the Partnership.
Distributions
received by the Partnership are accounted for as a reduction of the
investment balance. Distributions received after the investment has
reached zero are recognized as distribution income. As of all
periods presented, all investment balances in Local Limited
Partnerships had reached zero.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES,
continued
Use of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America
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 materially differ
from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents. As of June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively,
the Partnership had $88,425 and $137,071 in cash
equivalents.
Reporting Comprehensive Income
The
Partnership had no items of other comprehensive income for all
periods presented.
Income Taxes
The
Partnership has elected to be treated as a pass-through entity for
income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes.
Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are
passed through to and are reported by its owners on their
respective income tax returns. The Partnership’s federal tax
status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a
partnership. Accordingly, the Partnership is not required to take
any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The
Partnership is required to file and does file tax returns with the
Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Accordingly,
these financial statements do not reflect a provision for income
taxes and the Partnership has no other tax positions which must be
considered for disclosure. Income tax returns filed by the
Partnership are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue
Service for a period of three years. While no income tax returns
are currently being examined by the Internal Revenue Service, tax
years since 2014 remain open.
Net Income (Loss) Per Partnership Unit
Net
income (loss) per Partnership Unit includes no dilution and is
computed by dividing income (loss) available to Limited Partners by
the weighted average number of Partnership Units outstanding during
the period. Calculation of diluted net income (loss) per
Partnership Unit is not required.
Revenue Recognition
The
Partnership is entitled to receive reporting fees from the Local
Limited Partnerships. The intent of the reporting fees is to offset
(in part) administrative costs incurred by the Partnership in
corresponding with the Local Limited Partnerships. Due to the
uncertainty of the collection of these fees, the Partnership
recognizes reporting fees as collections are made.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810):
Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”. This will improve
certain areas of consolidation guidance for reporting organizations
that are required to evaluate whether to consolidate certain legal
entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability
corporations and securitization structures.
ASU
2015-02 simplifies
and improves GAAP by: eliminating the presumption that a general
partner should consolidate a limited partnership, eliminating the
indefinite deferral of FASB Statement No. 167, thereby reducing the
number of Variable Interest Entity (VIE) consolidation models from
four to two (including the limited partnership consolidation model)
and clarifying when fees paid to a decision maker should be a
factor to include in the consolidation of VIEs.
ASU 2015-02 is effective
for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this
update did not materially affect the Partnership's financial
statements.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
As of
June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, the Partnership owned limited
partnership interests in 4 and 7 Local Limited Partnerships,
respectively, each of which owns one Housing Complex, consisting of
an aggregate of 108 and 252 apartment units, respectively. The
respective Local General Partners of the Local Limited Partnerships
manage the day to day operations of the entities. Significant Local
Limited Partnership business decisions, as defined, require
approval from the Partnership. The Partnership, as a Limited
Partner, is generally entitled to 99.9%, as specified in the Local
Limited Partnership Agreements, of the operating profits and
losses, taxable income and losses, and tax credits of the Local
Limited Partnerships.
Selected
financial information for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and
2016 from the unaudited combined condensed financial statements of
the Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership has

Certain
Local Limited Partnerships incurred operating losses and/or have
working capital deficiencies. In the event these Local Limited
Partnerships continue to incur significant operating losses,
additional capital contributions by the Partnership and/or the
Local General Partners may be required to sustain the operations of
such Local Limited Partnerships. If additional capital
contributions are not made when they are required, the
Partnership's investment in certain of such Local Limited
Partnerships could be impaired, and the loss and recapture of the
related Low Income Housing Tax Credits could occur.

NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Under
the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership has paid or
is obligated to the General Partner or its affiliates for the
following fees:
(a)
An annual asset
management fee not to exceed 0.5% of the invested assets of the
Partnership, as defined. “Invested Assets” means the
sum of the Partnership’s investment in Local Limited
Partnership interests and the Partnership’s allocable share
of mortgage loans on and other debts related to the Housing
Complexes owned by such Local Limited Partnerships. Asset
management fees of $18,827 and $25,750 were incurred during the
three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, of which
$105,200 and $0 were paid during the three months ended June 30,
2017 and 2016, respectively.
(b)
A subordinated
disposition fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sale price of real
estate sold by the Local Limited Partnerships. Payment of this fee
is subordinated to the Limited Partners receiving distributions
equal to their capital contributions and their return on investment
(as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and is payable only if
services are rendered in the sales effort. No such fee was incurred
for all periods presented.
(c)
The Partnership
reimburses the General Partner or its affiliates for operating
expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership. Operating expenses
reimbursements paid were $57,523 and $59,776 during the three
months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
The
accrued fees and expenses due to General Partner and affiliates

The
General Partner and/or its affiliates do not anticipate that these
accrued fees will be paid in full until such time as capital
reserves are in excess of future foreseeable working capital
requirements of the Partnership.
The
Partnership currently has insufficient working capital to fund its
operations. Associates has agreed to continue providing advances
sufficient enough to fund the operations and working capital
requirements of the Partnership through August 31,
2018.
NOTE 4 – PAYABLES TO LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
Payables
to Local Limited Partnerships, amounting to $40,282 at both June
30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, represent amounts which are due at
various times based on conditions specified in the respective Local
Limited Partnership Agreements. These contributions are payable in
installments and are generally due upon the Local Limited
Partnerships achieving certain development and operating
benchmarks. The payables to Local Limited Partnerships are subject
to adjustment in certain circumstances.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
Forward Looking Statements
With
the exception of the discussion regarding historical information,
this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” and other discussions
elsewhere in this Form 10-Q contain forward looking statements.
Such statements are based on current expectations subject to
uncertainties and other factors which may involve known and unknown
risks that could cause actual results of operations to differ
materially from those projected or implied. Further, certain
forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions about future
events which may not prove to be accurate.
Risks
and uncertainties inherent in forward looking statements include,
but are not limited to, the Partnership’s future cash flows
and ability to obtain sufficient financing, level of operating
expenses, conditions in the Low Income Housing Tax Credit property
market and the economy in general, as well as legal proceedings.
Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for any future period.
Subsequent
written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the
Partnership or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified
in their entirety by cautionary statements in this Form 10-Q and in
other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
The
following discussion and analysis compares the results of
operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and
should be read in conjunction with the condensed financial
statements and accompanying notes included within this
report.
Financial Condition
The
Partnership's assets at June 30, 2017 consisted of $88,000 in
cash and
cash equivalents and $3,000 in other assets. Liabilities at June
30, 2017 consisted of $1,547,000 of accrued fees and expenses due
to General Partner and affiliates and $40,000 of payables to Local
Limited Partnerships.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended
June 30, 2016 The Partnership's net income for the three
months ended June 30, 2017 was $82,000, reflecting an increase of
approximately $111,000 from the net loss of $29,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was mainly due to $100,000
in gain on sale of Local Limited Partnerships during the three
months ended June 30, 2017 compared to no gain on sale of Local
Limited Partnerships during the three months ended June 30, 2016.
The gains recorded vary from period to period depending on sale
prices and values of Local Limited Partnerships sold. For the three
months ended June 30, 2017, asset management fees decreased by
$7,000 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016. These fees
are calculated based on the Invested Assets. As Local Limited
Partnerships are sold, the Invested Assets decrease, thereby
decreasing the asset management fees that are incurred. For the
three months ended June 30, 2017, legal and accounting fees
decreased by $3,000 compared to the three months ended June 30,
2016 due to the timing of the work performed. Other expenses
increased by $3,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017
compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 mainly due to the
outsourcing of data input and site inspection of Local Limited
Partnerships. Reporting fees and distribution income increased by
$4,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Local Limited
Partnerships pay the reporting fees and distribution income to the
Partnership when the Local Limited Partnerships’ cash flows
will allow for the payment.
16
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended
June 30, 2016 Net cash and cash equivalents used during the
three months ended June 30, 2017 was $49,000, compared to net cash
and cash equivalents used during the three months ended June 30,
2016 of $58,000. The Partnership paid $58,000 and $60,000 to the
General partner or an affiliate for reimbursement of operating
expenses paid on behalf of the Partnership during the three months
ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Partnership made
payments of $105,000 to the general partner for accrued asset
management fees during the three months ended June 30, 2017
compared to no payments made during the three months ended June 30,
2016. The reimbursement of operating expenses and asset management
fees are paid after management reviews the cash position of the
Partnership. The Partnership received $100,000 of disposition
proceeds from the sale of three Local Limited Partnerships during
the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to no disposition
proceeds received during the three months ended June 30, 2016. The
Partnership also received $4,000 more in reporting fees and
distribution income during the three months ended June 30, 2017
compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016. The reporting
fees and distribution income are paid to the Partnership when the
Local Limited Partnerships’ cash flows will allow for the
payment.
During
the three months ended June 30, 2017, accrued payables, which
consist primarily of related party asset management fees and
advances due to the General Partner and affiliates, decreased by
$132,000 as compared to March 31, 2017. The General Partner does
not anticipate that these accrued fees and advances will be paid
until such time as capital reserves are in excess of foreseeable
working capital requirements of the Partnership.
The
Partnership expects its future cash flows, together with its net
available assets as of June 30, 2017, to be insufficient to meet
all currently foreseeable future cash requirements. Associates has
agreed to continue providing advances sufficient enough to fund the
operations and working capital requirements of the Partnership
through August 31, 2018.
17
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market
Risks
NOT
APPLICABLE
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a)
Disclosure controls and procedures
As of
the end of the period covered by this report, the
Partnership’s General Partner, under the supervision and with
the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer of Associates, carried out an evaluation of the
effectiveness of the Partnership’s “disclosure controls
and procedures” as defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based on that evaluation, the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that,
as of the end of the period covered by this report, the
Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were not
effective to ensure that material information required to be
disclosed in the Partnership’s periodic report filings with
SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
period specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, consistent
with the definition of “disclosure controls and
procedures” under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934.
The
Partnership must rely on the Local Limited Partnerships to provide
the Partnership with certain information necessary to the timely
filing of the Partnership’s periodic reports. Factors in the
accounting at the Local Limited Partnerships have caused delays in
the provision of such information during past reporting periods,
and resulted in the Partnership’s inability to file its
periodic reports in a timely manner.
Once
the Partnership has received the necessary information from the
Local Limited Partnerships, the Chief Executive Officer and the
Chief Financial Officer of Associates believe that the material
information required to be disclosed in the Partnership’s
periodic report filings with SEC is effectively recorded,
processed, summarized and reported, albeit not in a timely manner.
Going forward, the Partnership will use the means reasonably within
its power to impose procedures designed to obtain from the Local
Limited Partnerships the information necessary to the timely filing
of the Partnership’s periodic reports.
(b)
Changes in internal controls
There
were no changes in the Partnership’s internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30,
2017 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over
financial reporting.
