HENNESSEY FINANCIAL, LLC AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2004 and 2003
NOTE 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
Hennessey Financial, LLC provides secured mezzanine financing to companies engaged in residential building construction, land development, commercial real estate investments, and other business ventures throughout the central United States. The members of the LLC have limited liability for the obligations or debts of the Company.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company, Hennessey Financial, LLC (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Hennessey Financial Note Holdings, LLC (the Subsidiary). The Subsidiary was formed November 2004 for the purposes of originating loans and managing loan portfolios. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains all of its cash balances with a high quality financial institution. Balances, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.
Finance Receivables
Finance receivables that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances reduced by any chargeoff or specific valuation accounts and net of any deferred fees or costs on originated loans, or unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans. The Company requires a security interest be granted in real estate to secure the finance receivables. Interest on loans is recognized over the term of the loan and is calculated using the compounded interest or simple-interest methods on principal amounts outstanding. Accrual of interest income is suspended when collateral is acquired through foreclosure or other proceedings. The average term for loans is one to five years, however, certain loans are subject to an annual renewal clause. Loan origination and extension fees are recognized as income over the life of the loan and unpaid fees accrue interest.
Allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to expense and decreased by chargeoffs (net of recoveries). Managements periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Companys past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions. Management has determined all loans are collectible and therefore did not record an allowance at December 31, 2004 and 2003.
Property, Equipment and Depreciation
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for using straight-line and accelerated methods over periods ranging from four to seven years. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed when incurred.
6
Debt Issuance Costs
Costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing are deferred and amortized over the term of the related financing agreement using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method. Total costs were $307,101 and $150,595 and accumulated amortization was $84,585 and $34,532 at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Amortization of debt issuance costs was $72,953 and $30,067 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The weighted average life of these costs is approximately 2.3 years.
Future estimated amortization expense is as follows for the years ending December 31:
2005 |
| $ | 90, 891 |
|
2006 |
| 74,881 |
| |
2007 |
| 42,194 |
| |
2008 |
| 14,570 |
| |
Total |
| $ | 222,516 |
|
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $7,221 and $1,550 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company is treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. As such, the Companys income, losses, and credits are included in the income tax returns of its members. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements do not include any provision or liability for income taxes.
Managements 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 differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current year financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or total members equity.

Net income is allocated as determined for federal income tax purposes. Net income is first allocated to Class A and then to Class B, C and D pursuant to the member control agreement. All net losses are allocated to Class A members.
NOTE 8 Membership Control Agreement
Call Option
The Company and sole owner of Class A each have a call option that would require the owners of Class B membership units to sell all of their membership units back to the Company or Class A owner. The purchase price is defined in the Membership Control Agreement and at December 31, 2004 that price was $311,598 for all outstanding Class B membership units.
The Company is obligated to purchase all of the Class C units on or before January 31, 2007 if the sole owner of Class A has not exercised an option to purchase the Class C units by December 31, 2006. The purchase price is defined in the Membership Control Agreement and at December 31, 2004 that price was $2,872,531 for all outstanding Class C membership units.
In December 2004, the Company reclassified certain Class B units to Class D and entered into a membership redemption agreement with the Class D member. The member sold 8,487 Class D membership units for $290,364 (see Note 5).
NOTE 9 Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Lease
The Company leases a vehicle under an operating lease that expires in August 2005. Monthly payments are $448 and rent expense was $5,376 and $5,036 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Future minimum lease payments are $3,134 for the year ending December 31, 2005.

Environmental Protection Laws
The Company may be subject to environmental protection laws with regards to the real estate projects the Company finances. Although environmental laws are not initially the Companys responsibility, the Company would be subject to these laws if the borrower were to default on the construction loan and the Company repossesses the real estate.
Note 10 Concentrations
At December 31, 2004, the Company had one related party whose loans and accrued interest balances totaled 22.7% of total outstanding balances. At December 31, 2003, the Company had four related parties whose loans and accrued interest balances totaled 28.7%, 15.5%, 11.0% and 10.2% of total interest and fee income for the year ended December 31, 2004. Interest and fee income from three related parties represented 29.0%, 16.5% and 15.0% of total interest and fee income for the year ended December 31, 2003. Due to the significance of these borrowers, the Company would incur significant losses if these borrowers failed to perform according to the terms of the contracts and the collateral or other security for the amount due proved to be of no value to the Company. The Company requires a security interest be granted to secure funds that are loaned to these borrowers. This would enable the Company to acquire rights to the collateral in the event of default.
