NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”) developed and operates Saddlebrook Resort, which is a condominium hotel and resort located in Wesley Chapel, Florida.

The Company’s accompanying balance sheet for March 31, 2016, and its statements of operations and accumulated earnings and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, are unaudited but reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The balance sheet at December 31, 2015 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date.

The Company’s business is seasonal. Therefore, the results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for future interim periods or the full fiscal year.

These financial statements and related notes are presented for interim periods in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and, consequently, do not include all disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Accordingly, these 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, 2015.

Note 4. Notes Payable and Capital Lease Obligation

On December 6, 2015 the Company’s financing agreement with a third party lender was modified to include renewal for the existing principal balance of $4,875,000, along with an advance of an additional $2,000,000. The new term note expires December 6, 2020. At March 31, 2016 $6,786,859 was outstanding under the note. The term note requires monthly principle payments of $29,380 plus interest of 3% over the one month Libor index (3.44% at March 31, 2016). The term note is collateralized by all current and subsequently acquired real and personal property. The term note requires the Company to maintain a Debt Ratio, as defined, of 1.25%.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”, which requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 required retrospective adoption and became effective with respect to the Company’s financial statements on January 1, 2016. Prior to the effective date, such issuance costs were classified as assets and included as deferred charges, net, in the Company’s balance sheet. Under the provisions of ASU 2015-03, such issuance costs are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt in the accompanying March 31, 2016 balance sheet, and have been reclassified in the December 31, 2015 balance sheet to conform to the 2016 presentation.

On December 13, 2012, the Company entered into a capital lease obligation for equipment in the amount of $80,479. The capital lease is secured by the equipment purchased, matures in November 2017 and requires monthly payments of $1,426, including interest at 2.44%. At March 31, 2016, the amount due on this capital lease obligation was $27,920.

On December 2, 2012, the Company entered into a capital lease obligation for equipment in the amount of $255,874.

This capital lease is secured by the equipment purchased, matures in December 2017 and requires monthly payments of $4,995, including interest at 6.41%, beginning in January 2013. At March 31, 2016, the amount due on this capital lease obligation was $98,986.

On January 15, 2014 the Company entered into a capital lease obligation for equipment in the amount of $150,000.

SADDLEBROOK RENTAL POOL OPERATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Rental Pool Operations and Rental Pool Agreement

Condominium units are provided as rental (hotel) accommodations by their owners under the Rental Pool and Agency Appointment Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc. (collectively, the “Rental Pool”). Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc. (“Saddlebrook”) acts as operator of the Rental Pool which provides for the distribution of a percentage of net rental income, as defined, to the owners.

The Saddlebrook Rental Pool Operation consists of two funds: the Rental Pool Income Distribution Fund (“Distribution Fund”) and the Maintenance and Furniture Replacement Escrow Fund (“Maintenance Escrow Fund”). The operations of the Distribution Fund reflect the earnings of the Rental Pool. The Distribution Fund balance sheets reflect amounts due from Saddlebrook for the rental pool distribution payable to participants and amounts due to the Maintenance Escrow fund. The amounts due from Saddlebrook are required to be distributed no later than forty-five days following the end of each calendar quarter. The Maintenance Escrow Fund reflects the accounting for escrowed assets used to maintain unit interiors and replace furniture as it becomes necessary.

Rental pool participants and Saddlebrook share rental revenues according to the provisions of the Agreement. Net Rental Income shared consists of rentals received less a marketing surcharge of 7.5%, a 12.5% management fee, travel agent commissions, credit card expenses and provision for bad debts, if warranted. Saddlebrook receives 45% of Net Rental Income as operator of the Rental Pool. The remaining 55% of Net Rental Income, after adjustments for complimentary room revenues (ten percent of the normal unit rental price paid by Saddlebrook for promotional use of the unit) and certain minor repair and maintenance charges, is available for distribution to the participants and Maintenance Escrow Fund based upon each participant’s respective participation factor (computed using the value of a furnished unit and the number of days it was available to the pool). Quarterly, 45% of Net Rental Income is distributed to participants and 10%, as adjusted for complimentary room revenues and minor interior maintenance and replacement charges, is deposited in an escrow account until a maximum of 20% of the set value of the individual owner’s furniture package has been accumulated. Excess escrow balances are refunded to participants.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The accounting records of the funds are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting.

Income Taxes

No federal or state taxes have been reflected in the accompanying financial statements as the tax effect of fund activities accrues to the rental pool participants and Saddlebrook.

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

General

The Company operates Saddlebrook Resort (the “Resort”) in Wesley Chapel, Florida, which contains condominium units that have been sold to third parties or to affiliates of the Company. The majority of the condominium units 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 participate in a non-pooling rental program, are owner-occupied or are designated as hospitality suites or housing for young athletes independent of the rental programs. Other resort property owned by the Company and its affiliates include golf courses, tennis courts, a spa, restaurants and conference center facilities.

Results of Operations

First quarter 2016 compared to first quarter 2015

The Company’s total revenues increased $878,000, or 8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year. Total revenues for the Rental Pool increased $139,000, or 4%. These changes are directly related to an increase in occupancy over the prior period.

Total costs and expenses increased $818,000, or about 9%, for the Company prior to the offset of $455,000 in insurance proceeds recorded as gain on disposal of assets in the prior period. Total costs and expenses for the Rental Pool Operation decreased $76,000, or about 8%.

The Company’s net income for the quarter increased in the amount of $9,500 compared to the same period in the prior year, prior to the recording of insurance proceeds in the prior period. Amounts available for distribution for the Rental Pool Operation increased $123,000 from the comparable period last year.

Impact of Current Economic Conditions

The Company continues to experience increased occupancy rates, when compared to prior periods. Ancillary service revenue is now beginning to show increases when compared to the prior periods as well. The Company believes that businesses have begun to alter their spending patterns and that this is a result of a turnaround in the economy.

In response to this trend, the Company has increased its sales force to focus more in the area of corporate meetings. The Company continues its marketing efforts toward the social clientele by developing packages designed to target more social guests, including families. These social packages are being promoted through the Company’s website as well as through travel wholesalers and with emphasis on e-commerce sites. Management has implemented programs and measures to help the Company get back to positive operating income. These programs and measures include cost control programs, consolidation of restaurant operations and efforts to increase brand awareness and recognition of the Resort.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Future operating costs and planned expenditures for minor capital additions and improvements are expected to be adequately funded by the Company and its affiliates’ current cash reserves and cash generated by the Resort’s operations.

On December 6, 2015 the Company’s financing agreement with a third party lender was modified to include renewal for the existing principal balance of $4,875,000, along with an advance of an additional $2,000,000. The new term note expires December 6, 2020. At March 31, 2016 $6,786,859 was outstanding under the note. The term note requires monthly principle payments of $29,380 plus interest of 3% over the one month Libor index (3.44% at March 31, 2016). The term note is collateralized by all current and subsequently acquired real and personal property. The term note requires the Company to maintain a Debt Ratio, as defined, of 1.25%.

The Company’s ultimate shareholder has the financial ability and intent to continue to fund operations through affiliated companies that are 100% owned by the Company’s ultimate shareholder to the extent required to support the Company’s operations. The Company has loans outstanding to the affiliated companies of approximately $10.5 million and $10.1 million as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. In addition to the shareholders’ financial ability these affiliated Companies are expected to continue to generate positive cash flows during fiscal year 2016 should additional funding be required to support the Company’s operations.

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

Seasonality

The Company’s operations are seasonal with the highest volume of revenue generally occurring in the first quarter of each calendar year.

Due to the seasonal business of the Company, the results of operations for the interim period shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company’s invested cash is subject to changes in market interest rates. Otherwise, the Company does not have significant market risk with respect to foreign currency exchanges or other market rates.

The Company’s term note bears interest at 3.0% over the one month LIBOR index and matures in December 2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2016, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 15d-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2016 in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings.

The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures over internal controls will prevent all error and all 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 be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitation in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues within the Company have been detected.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2016 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of the Company’s management, insurance or indemnification from other third parties adequately covers these matters. Accordingly, the effect, if any, of these claims is considered immaterial to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
