The
Trust’s general partnership interest in the Partnership was 69.53% and 68.43% on
July 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, the weighted average for the six months
ended July 31, 2006 and 2005 was 69.50% and 66.81%, respectively, and the
weighted average for the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005 was 69.53%
and 67.93%, respectively.
PARTNERSHIP
AGREEMENT
The
Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”) provides
for the issuance of two classes of limited partnership units, Class A and
Class B. Such classes are identical in all respects, except that each
Class A limited partnership unit is convertible into a like number of
Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust at any time at the option of the
limited partner. As of July 31, 2006, a total of 617,287 Class A limited
partnership units were issued and outstanding. Additionally, a total of
3,407,938 Class B limited partnership units were held by Wirth and his
affiliates on that date, in lieu of the issuance of Class A limited
partnership units. Each Class B limited partnership unit is identical to
Class A limited partnership units in all respects, except that Class B limited
partnership units are convertible only with the approval of the Board of
Trustees, in its sole discretion. If all of the Class A and B limited
partnership units were converted, the limited partners in the Partnership would
receive 4,025,225 Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust.
BASIS
OF
PRESENTATION
The
financial statements of the Partnership, InnSuites Hotels and Yuma Hospitality
LP are consolidated with the Trust, and all significant intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated.
These
consolidated 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 for Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. 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 consolidated 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 six-month and three-month periods ended July 31,
2006
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year
ended January 31, 2007. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Trust’s Annual Report
on Form 10-K/A as of and for the year ended January 31, 2006.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at
the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts
of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
The
accounting policies that the Trust believes are most critical and involve the
most subjective judgments include estimates and assumptions of future revenue
and expenditures used to project cash flows. Future cash flows are used to
determine the recoverability (or impairment) of the carrying values of the
Trust’s assets in the event management is required to test an asset for
recoverability of carrying value under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 144. If the carrying value of an asset exceeds the estimated
future undiscounted cash flows over its estimated remaining life, the Trust
recognizes an impairment expense to reduce the asset’s carrying value to its
fair value. Fair value is determined by either the most current third-party
property appraisal, if available, or the present value of future undiscounted
cash flows over the remaining life of the asset. The Trust’s evaluation of
future cash flows is based on historical experience and other factors, including
certain economic conditions and committed future bookings. The estimated future
cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future
operating performance and may differ from actual cash flows.
REVENUE
RECOGNITION
Room,
food and beverage, telecommunications, management and licensing fees and other
revenue are recognized as earned as services are provided and items are sold.
Payroll reimbursements are recorded as personnel services are provided and
are
not netted with the corresponding payroll expense.
EARNINGS
(LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic
and
diluted earnings (loss) per share have been computed based on the
weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the periods and potentially
dilutive securities.
For
the
three and six month periods ended July 31, 2006 and 2005, there were
Class A and Class B limited partnership units outstanding, which are
convertible to Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. Assuming conversion,
the aggregate weighted-average of these Shares of Beneficial Interest would
be
4,029,025 and 4,384,701 for the first six months of fiscal year 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The weighted-average of the Shares of Beneficial Interest would
be
4,025,225 and 4,236,555 for the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. For the three months ended July 31, 2006, these units are not
included in the diluted earnings per share calculation as their inclusion would
have an anti-dilutive effect.
The
following is a reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted earnings
per share (there is no dilutive effect for the three months ended July 31,
2006):

During
the second quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Trust accepted the voluntary
surrender of all outstanding stock options, therefore no stock options are
included in the computation of diluted income per share for the six months
ended
July 31, 2006 and 2005. The options were surrendered in order to reduce costs
and simplify the Trust’s reporting and compliance obligations to the Securities
and Exchange Commission and the American Stock Exchange. The Trust made no
payments to the holders of the options for their surrender. The Trust has no
obligation, explicit or implied, for the surrender of the options, including
but
not limited to the reissuance of options at some time in the
future.

RECENT
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
December 2004, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123
(revised 2004) was issued. This Statement is a revision of FASB Statement
No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, and supercedes APB
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. This Statement
establishes standards for accounting for transactions in which an entity
exchanges its equity securities for goods and services. The Trust adopted this
Statement during fiscal year 2006.
During
the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Trust issued 99,300 restricted shares
to its Trustees, officers and other key employees with a total fair value of
$134,055. Fair value was calculated using the closing share price on the date
of
the grant. The shares were issued from the Trust’s treasury stock. During the
first six months of fiscal year 2007, the Trust recognized expense on these
shares totaling $49,747. As of July 31, 2006, total unrecognized expense related
to unvested stock awards totals $50,018, which will be recognized evenly over
the next five months. The following table summarizes restricted share activity
during the six months ended July 31, 2006:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with the InnSuites
Hospitality Trust unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
The
Trust
owns the sole general partner’s interest in the Partnership. The Trust’s
principal source of cash flows is from the operations of the Hotels and
management and licensing contracts with affiliated and third-party hotels
outside of the Trust.
RECENT
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
December 2004, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123
(revised 2004) was issued. This Statement is a revision of FASB Statement
No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, and supercedes APB
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. This Statement
establishes standards for accounting for transactions in which an entity
exchanges its equity securities for goods and services. The Trust adopted this
Statement during fiscal year 2006.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The
expenses of the Trust consist primarily of hotel operating expenses, property
taxes, insurance, corporate overhead, interest on mortgage debt, professional
fees and depreciation of the Hotels. The operating performance of the Trust
is
principally related to the performance of the Hotels. Therefore, management
believes that a review of the historical performance of the operations of the
Hotels, particularly with respect to occupancy, calculated as rooms sold divided
by the number of rooms available, average daily rate (“ADR”), calculated as
total room revenue divided by number of rooms sold, and revenue per available
room (“REVPAR”), calculated as total room revenue divided by the number of rooms
available, is appropriate for understanding revenue from the Hotels. Occupancy
improved to 75.0%, an increase of 2.9% from the prior year period. ADR increased
$1.15 to $73.37 from $72.22 in the prior year period. These increases resulted
in an increase of $2.92 in REVPAR to $55.03 from $52.11 in the prior year
period.
The
following table shows occupancy, ADR and REVPAR for the periods

Total
Trust revenue was $11.4 million for the six months ended July 31, 2006,
consistent with the prior year period total. Revenues from hotel operations,
which include Room, Food and Beverage, Telecommunications and Other revenues,
decreased 5.6% to $9.2 million from $9.8 million when comparing the six months
ended July 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, primarily due to the disposition
of
the Phoenix, Arizona property during the second quarter of fiscal year 2006.
Increased management and trademark fees and payroll reimbursements, due to
fees
collected from the new ownership of the disposed Phoenix, Arizona property
and
increased fee structures for affiliated hotels, offset this decrease resulting
in total revenue consistent with the prior year period.
On
June
19, 2006, the Trust received written notice from Lafayette Hampstead, LLC
("Lafayette"), a third-party company that owns a hotel property in San Diego,
California, that Lafayette will terminate the management, licensing, reservation
and advertising agreements with InnSuites Hotels, Inc. effective September
20,
2006. The Trust recorded approximately $520,000 of revenue and $419,000 of
expense related to these agreements during the six months ended July 31, 2006,
and $482,000 of revenue and $369,000 of expense during the six months ended
July
31, 2005.
Total
expenses decreased $741,000, or 6.2%, to $11.2 million from $11.9 million when
comparing the six months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005. Total operating expenses
decreased $628,000, or 5.8%, to $10.3 million from $10.9 million for six months
ended July 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The decreases in these totals is
primarily due to the disposition of the Phoenix, Arizona hotel, which was
partially offset by higher payroll expenses relating to management contracts
with hotels outside the Trust.
General
and administrative expenses decreased $722,000, or 31.5%, to $1.6 million from
$2.3 million when comparing the six months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. This is primarily due to accounting and legal fees incurred in
fiscal year 2006 relating to amendments to certain of the Trust’s filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, reduced bad debt expense due to improved
receivable collections in fiscal year 2007, and the disposition of the Phoenix,
Arizona hotel in the prior year.
Total
interest expense was $893,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2006, a decrease
of $113,000, or 11.3%, from the prior year period total of $1.0 million. The
decrease was primarily due to the disposition of the Phoenix, Arizona property,
which had incurred $130,000 of mortgage interest expense during the first six
months of fiscal year 2006.
On
July 28, 2005, the Trust sold its Phoenix, Arizona hotel to Phoenix
Northern Resort LLC, an affiliate of Wirth, for its appraised value of $5.1
million. The buyer satisfied the purchase price by assuming the Trust’s $3.2
million mortgage note payable secured by the property, paying $1.7 million
in
cash prior to the closing, and paying $192,000 in cash at the closing. The
sale
resulted in a total gain of $1.8 million, with $1.2 million of the gain
attributable to shareholders.

Total
Trust revenue was $4.9 million for the three months ended July 31, 2006, an
increase of $70,000 or 1.5% from the prior year period total. Revenues from
hotel operations, which include Room, Food and Beverage, Telecommunications
and
Other revenues, decreased 5.5% to $3.8 million from $4.0 million when comparing
the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, primarily due
to
the disposition of the Phoenix, Arizona property during the second quarter
of
fiscal year 2006. Increased management and trademark fees and payroll
reimbursements, due to fees collected from the new ownership of the disposed
Phoenix, Arizona property and increased fee structures for affiliated hotels,
offset this decrease resulting in total revenue improving over the prior year
period.
On
June
19, 2006, the Trust received written notice from Lafayette Hampstead, LLC
("Lafayette"), a third-party company that owns a hotel property in San Diego,
California, that Lafayette will terminate the management, licensing, reservation
and advertising agreements with InnSuites Hotels, Inc. effective September
20,
2006. The Trust recorded approximately $283,000 of revenue and $227,000 of
expense related to these agreements during the three months ended July 31,
2006,
and $257,000 of revenue and $189,000 of expense during the six months ended
July
31, 2005.
Total
expenses decreased $253,000, or 4.4%, to $5.5 million from $5.7 million when
comparing the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005. Total operating
expenses decreased $201,000, or 3.8%, to $5.0 million from $5.2 million for
three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The decreases in these
totals is primarily due to the disposition of the Phoenix, Arizona hotel, which
was partially offset by higher payroll expenses relating to management contracts
with hotels outside the Trust.
General
and administrative expenses decreased $316,000, or 30.5%, to $721,000 from
$1.0
million when comparing the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. This is primarily due to reduced bad debt expense due to improved
receivable collections in fiscal year 2007, the disposition of the Phoenix,
Arizona hotel in the prior year and reduced corporate overhead
costs.
Total
interest expense was $451,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2006, a
decrease of $52,000, or 10.3%, from the prior year period total of $503,000.
The
decrease was primarily due to the disposition of the Phoenix, Arizona property,
which had incurred $63,000 of mortgage interest expense during the three months
ended July 31, 2005.
On
July 28, 2005, the Trust sold its Phoenix, Arizona hotel to Phoenix
Northern Resort LLC, an affiliate of Wirth, for its appraised value of $5.1
million. The buyer satisfied the purchase price by assuming the Trust’s $3.2
million mortgage note payable secured by the property, paying $1.7 million
in
cash prior to the closing, and paying $192,000 in cash at the closing. The
sale
resulted in a total gain of $1.8 million, with $1.2 million of the gain
attributable to shareholders.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Through
its ownership interest in the Partnership, Yuma Hospitality LP and InnSuites
Hotels, the Trust has its proportionate share of the benefits and obligations
of
the Partnership’s and Yuma Hospitality LP’s ownership interests, as well as
InnSuites Hotels’ operational interests, in the Hotels. The Trust’s principal
source of cash to meet its cash requirements, including distributions to its
shareholders, is its share of these cash flows. The Trust’s liquidity, including
its ability to make distributions to its shareholders, will depend upon the
ability to generate sufficient cash flows from hotel operations.
The
Trust
has principal of $429,033 due and payable for the remainder of fiscal year
2007
under mortgage notes payable. For the twelve months between August 1, 2006
and
July 31, 2007, the Trust has principal of $887,002 due and payable under
mortgage notes payable. The Trust anticipates that cash flows from operations
will be sufficient to satisfy these obligations as they become due.
The
Trust
has no principal due and payable in fiscal year 2007 under notes and advances
payable to Wirth and his affiliates. The Trust had $400,000 due to Rare Earth
Financial, LLC, an affiliate of Wirth, in March 2006. The Trust satisfied this
note using the line of credit established with Rare Earth Financial in March
2006. The balance on the line of credit as of July 31, 2006 is $700,000. For
the
twelve months between August 1, 2006 and July 31, 2007, the Trust has no
principal due and payable under notes payable to Wirth and his
affiliates.
Subsequent
to July 31, 2006, the Trust entered into an agreement for an unsecured bank
line
of credit, under which the Trust can draw up to $750,000. This line of credit
will replace the Trust’s $500,000 line of credit outstanding on July 31,
2006.
The
Trust
may seek to negotiate additional credit facilities or issue debt instruments.
Any debt incurred or issued by the Trust may be secured or unsecured, long-term,
medium-term or short-term, bear interest at a fixed or variable rate and be
subject to such other terms as the Trust considers prudent.
The
Trust
continues to contribute to a Capital Expenditures Fund (the “Fund”) an amount
equal to 4% of the InnSuites Hotels’ revenues from operation of the Hotels. The
Fund is restricted by the mortgage lender for five of the Trust’s properties. As
of July 31, 2006, $139,648 was held in restricted capital expenditure funds
and
is included on the Trust’s Balance Sheet as “Restricted Cash.” The Fund is
intended to be used for capital improvements to the Hotels and for refurbishment
and replacement of
furniture, fixtures and equipment, in addition to other uses of amounts in
the
Fund considered appropriate from time to time. During the six months ended
July
31, 2006, the Hotels spent $949,023 for capital expenditures. The Trust
considers the majority of these improvements to be revenue producing. Therefore,
these amounts have been capitalized and are being depreciated over their
estimated useful lives. The Hotels also spent $716,922 during the six months
ended July 31, 2006 on repairs and maintenance and these amounts have been
charged to expense as incurred.
As
of
July 31, 2006, the Trust has no commitments for capital expenditures beyond
the
4% reserve for refurbishment and replacements set aside annually for each hotel
property.
The
Trust
may acquire or develop additional hotels only as suitable opportunities arise,
and the Trust will not undertake acquisition or redevelopment of properties
unless adequate sources of financing are available. Funds for future
acquisitions or development of hotels are expected to be derived, in whole
or in
part, from borrowings or from the proceeds of additional issuances of Shares
of
Beneficial Interest or other securities. However, there can be no assurance
that
the Trust will successfully acquire or develop additional hotels.
The
Trust’s management has identified condo-hotel conversions as a potential
opportunity for the Trust. The conversion concept has become increasingly
popular throughout the country, and may have the potential to eclipse time-share
or fractional ownership as the preferred vacation, second or third home
ownership vehicle. The Trust, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, InnSuites
Hotels, is currently preparing two of its Arizona hotel properties for potential
condo-hotel ownership. The Trust has substantially increased capital improvement
spending at these two properties, which has impacted the Trust’s liquidity
during the six months ended July 31, 2006. The Trust believes the short-term
liquidity impact will result in long-term benefits to the Trust by improving
the
quality of the suites at these properties, thereby increasing their appeal
to
our customers and allowing us to raise rates. The Trust has offset the
short-term liquidity impact through an increase in loans and advances from
related parties, specifically Mr. Wirth and his affiliated companies. If the
Trust determines this concept to be feasible for its current hotel properties,
the Trust may realize condominium sales revenue and revenue from long-term
management and trademark agreements with potential homeowners’ associations
and/or future condominium owners.
11
OFF-BALANCE
SHEET FINANCINGS AND LIABILITIES
Other
than lease commitments, legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of
business and an employment contract with Wirth, the Trust does not have any
off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities. The Trust does not
have
any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in the consolidated
financial statements. (See Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies.”)
SEASONALITY
The
Hotels’ operations historically have been seasonal. The three southern Arizona
hotels experience their highest occupancy in the first fiscal quarter and,
to a
lesser extent, the fourth fiscal quarter. The second fiscal quarter tends to
be
the lowest period of occupancy at those three southern Arizona hotels. This
seasonality pattern can be expected to cause fluctuations in the Trust’s
quarterly revenue. The two hotels located in California and New Mexico
historically experience their most profitable periods during the second and
third fiscal quarters (the summer season), providing some balance to the general
seasonality of the Trust’s hotel business. To the extent that cash flows from
operations are insufficient during any quarter, because of temporary or seasonal
fluctuations in revenue, the Trust may utilize other cash on hand or borrowings
to make distributions to its shareholders or to meet operating needs. No
assurance can be given that the Trust will make distributions in the
future.

Trust
does not undertake any obligation to update publicly or revise any
forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The
Trust
is exposed to interest rate risk primarily as a result of its mortgage notes
payable, notes payable to banks and other notes payable. Proceeds from these
loans were used to maintain liquidity, fund capital expenditures and expand
the
Trust’s real estate investment portfolio and operations.
The
Trust’s interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of
interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall
borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives, the Trust borrows using fixed rate
debt, when possible. There have been no significant changes in the Trust’s debt
structure during the six months ended July 31, 2006.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As
of the
end of the period covered by this report, the Trust conducted an evaluation,
under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, of the Trust’s disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on this evaluation, the principal
executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Trust’s
disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Trust in reports that it files or submits under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission’s rules and forms. There was no change in the Trust’s
internal control over financial reporting during the Trust’s most recently
completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely
to materially affect, the Trust’s internal control over financial
reporting.
