All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Certain 2006 balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2007 presentation. The unaudited financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present such information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures, including a description of significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. Note B: Transfer of ownership of the Gainesville Outlet Mall The Company has as agreement to transfer it's ownership of the Gainesville Outlet Mall and 40 acres of adjacent, vacant land to an independent third party. The mall, which the Company acquired in 2003, has incurred both cash and accounting losses for the past several years. The Company has recorded an impairment loss of $314,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The assets and liabilities being transferred have been reflected as Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale. Note C: Short-Term Note Receivable - Related Party In 2006 the Company made an unsecured loan with a current principal balance of $1,377,000 to Eurenergy Resources Corporation (a company that is 20% owned by an entity deemed to be related to CabelTel). The loan has an annual interest rate of 8% per annum with principal and interest payable within 30 days after demand and, if not sooner demanded, on July 17, 2007. As of March 31, 2007 accrued interest was $80,000. In March 2007, the Company made a $100,000 loan to an entity affiliated to the Company. This loan was repaid in May 2007. 7 Note D: Discontinued Operations The operation of the Gainesville Outlet Mall has been reflected as a discontinued operation in 2007 and 2006. ("See Note B ") Effective June 30, 2006, the Company sold all of its membership interests in Gaywood Oil & Gas, LLC and Gaywood Oil & Gas II, LLC ("Gaywood) which owned oil and gas leases in Gregg and Rusk Counties, Texas and on which approximately 50 oil-producing wells were operating. These wells averaged two to three barrels of oil per day. The sale price of $1,737,000 was received in cash on July 5, 2006. The Company recorded a gain on the sale of $418,000. The operation of Gaywood has been reflected as a discontinued operation in 2006. Note E: Segment Reporting Business Operations Currently, the Company operates one retirement community in King City, Oregon, with a capacity of 114 residents. Certain 2006 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The segment information and reconciliation to income (loss) from operations are as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2007 CIC Discontinued Corporate Real Estate Consolidated Operations --------- ----------- ------------ ---------- Revenue $ 39 $ 682 $ 721 $ 303 Operating expenses Operations -- 320 320 399 Lease expense 20 220 240 -- Corporate general and administrative 209 -- 209 -- ------- ------- ------- ------- 229 540 769 399 ------- ------- ------- ------- Operating earnings (loss) (190) 142 (48) (96) Interest Income 84 -- 84 -- Interest (expense) -- -- -- (78) Gain (loss) on sale of assets -- -- -- (314) Other income 8 2 10 15 Net earnings (loss) from continuing operations $ (98) $ 144 $ 46 $ (473) ======= ======= ======= ======= Total assets $ 1,789 $ 791 $ 2,580 $ 6,750 ======= ======= ======= ======= 8 Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 CIC Discontinued Corporate Real Estate Consolidated Operations --------- ----------- ------------ ---------- Revenue $ 89 $ 668 $ 757 $ 873 Operating expenses Operations -- 306 306 865 Lease expense 25 211 236 -- Corporate general and administrative 378 -- 378 -- -------- -------- -------- -------- 403 517 920 865 -------- -------- -------- -------- Operating earnings (loss) (314) 151 (163) 8 Interest income 317 -- 317 -- Interest (expense) (263) -- (263) (197) Other income (6) 2 (4) 4 -------- -------- -------- -------- Net earnings (loss) from continuing operations $ (266) $ 153 $ (113) $ (185) ======== ======== ======== ======== Total assets $ 9,204 $ 2,410 $ 11,614 $ 8,094 ======== ======== ======== ======== ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Certain of the Company's accounting policies require the application of judgment in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These judgments and estimates are based upon the Company's historical experience, current trends and information available from other sources that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies are more significant to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Revisions in such estimates are recorded in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revisions become known. The Company's allowance for doubtful accounts receivable and notes receivable is based on an analysis of the risk of loss on specific accounts. The analysis places particular emphasis on past due accounts. Management considers such information as the nature and age of the receivable, the payment history of the tenant, customer or other debtor and the financial condition of the tenant or 9 other debtor. Management's estimate of the required allowance, which is reviewed on a quarterly basis, is subject to revision as these factors change. Deferred Tax Assets Significant management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against net deferred tax assets. The future recoverability of the Company's net deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income prior to the expiration of the loss carry forwards. The Company believes that it will generate future taxable income to fully utilize the net deferred tax assets. Liquidity and Capital Resources On March 31, 2007, the Company had current assets of $8.6 million and current liabilities of $7.3 million. Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2007 were $254,000. Net cash provided by operating activities was $267,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. During the three month period the Company had a net income of $208,000 from continuing operations. Net cash used in investing activities was $107,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, which consists principally of a $100,000 loan made by the Company to a related party along with the addition of fixed assets Net cash used in discontinued operations was $230,000 in 2007, which represents the net cash expenditures at the Gainesville Outlet Mall for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Results of Operations The Company reported a net loss of $427,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, as compared to a net loss of $298,000 for the three month period ending March 31, 2006. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company recorded revenues of $721,000 compared to $757,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The Company's retirement property is fully occupied and it is anticipated that it will remain so during 2007. The decrease in revenue in 2007, as compared to 2006, is principally due to a decrease in certain fees received from a related party for providing accounting services. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, operating expenses at the retirement center were $320,000 as compared to $306,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The slight increase for the period was due to general cost increases at the facility. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, corporate general & administrative expenses were $209,000 as compared to $378,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. In 2006 the company incurred approximately $80,000 in payroll and consulting fees which were not incurred in 2007. In general there was an overall reduction in administrative costs in the latter part of 2006 which has the effect of lowering administrative costs in 2007. 10 For the three months ended March 31, 2007, interest income was $84,000 compared to $317,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. During the first quarter of 2006 the Company recorded $306,000 of interest income from loans made to CabelTEL AD in Bulgaria (see interest expense, below). In 2006 the Company sold Gaywood for cash and has invested the proceeds in an interest bearing note which has resulted in an increase in interest of $74,000 in 2007 when compared to 2006. The Company recorded no interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007, as compared to $346,000 same period in 2006. During the first quarter of 2006 the Company recorded $306,000 of interest expense from loans made for the purpose of advancing funds to CabelTEL AD in Bulgaria (see interest income, above). The balance of the interest in the three months ended March 31, 2006 was for a note that was paid off later in 2006. Forward Looking Statements "Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: A number of the matters and subject areas discussed in this filing that are not historical or current facts deal with potential future circumstances, operations and prospects. The discussion of such matters and subject areas is qualified by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding future expectations generally, and also may materially differ from the Company's actual future experience involving any one or more of such matters and subject areas relating to interest rate fluctuations, ability to obtain adequate debt and equity financing, demand, pricing, competition, construction, licensing, permitting, construction delays on new developments, contractual and licensure, and other delays on the disposition, transition, or restructuring of currently or previously owned, leased or managed properties in the Company's portfolio, and the ability of the Company to continue managing its costs and cash flow while maintaining high occupancy rates and market rate charges in its retirement community. The Company has attempted to identify, in context, certain of the factors that it currently believes may cause actual future experience and results to differ from the Company's current expectations regarding the relevant matter of subject area. These and other risks and uncertainties are detailed in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including the Company's Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Inflation The Company's principal source of revenue is from rents in a retirement community and fees for services rendered. The real estate operation is affected by rental rates that are highly dependent upon market conditions and the competitive environment in the areas where the property is located. Compensation to employees and maintenance are the principal cost elements relative to the operation of this property. Although the Company has not historically experienced any adverse effects of inflation on salaries or other operating expenses, there can be no assurance that such trends will continue or that, should inflationary pressures arise, the Company will be able to offset such costs by increasing rental rates in its real estate operation. Environmental Matters The Company has conducted environmental assessments on most of its existing owned or leased properties. These assessments have not revealed any environmental liability that the Company believes would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, assets or results of operations. The Company is not aware of any such environmental liability. The Company believes that all of its properties are in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic 11 substances or petroleum products. The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority and is not otherwise aware of any material non-compliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products in connection with any of its communities. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Interest Rate Risk Nearly all of the Company's debt is financed at fixed rates of interest. Therefore, we have minimal risk from exposure to changes in interest rates. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES As required by Rule 13(a)-15(b), the Company's management, including the principal executive officer, chief financial officer and principal accounting officer, conducted an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Report, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13(a)-15(e). Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Report. As required by Rule 13(a)-15(d), the Company's management, including the chief executive officer, chief financial officer and principal accounting officer, also conducted an evaluation of the Company's internal controls over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred in the first fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially effect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there has been no such change during the first fiscal quarter. It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based, in part, on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. PART II: OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS During the period of time covered by this Report, CabelTel International Corporation did not repurchase any of its equity securities. The following table sets forth a summary for the quarter, indicating no repurchases were made and that, at the end of the period covered by this Report, no specified number of shares may be purchased under any program in place.
