PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION


Forward-Looking Statements

This report (including, but not limited to, the information contained in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”) contains forward-looking statements.  All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this report, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements.  When used, statements which are not historical in nature, including those containing words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” and similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  We have based forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.  This report also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and other industry data.  This data involves several assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates.  We have not independently verified the statistical and other industry data generated by independent parties which are contained in this report and, accordingly, we cannot guarantee their accuracy or completeness.

These forward-looking statements are subject, but not limited, to various risks and uncertainties, including those relating to:

current maturities of our financing arrangements and our ability to renew or refinance such financing arrangements;

defaults on the mortgage loans securing our mortgage revenue bonds (“MRBs”);

the competitive environment in which we operate;

risks associated with investing in multifamily, student, senior citizen residential and commercial properties, including changes in business conditions and the general economy;

changes in interest rates;

our ability to use borrowings or obtain capital to finance our assets;

local, regional, national and international economic and credit market conditions;

recapture of previously issued Low Income Housing Tax Credits (“LIHTCs”) in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code;

changes in the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Capital Fund Program (“HUD”);

geographic concentration with the MRB portfolio held by the Partnership;

appropriations risk related to the funding of federal housing programs, including HUD Section 8; and

changes in the U.S. corporate tax code and other government regulations affecting our business.

Other risks, uncertainties and factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements we make. We are not obligated to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events or otherwise. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the industry in which we operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described under the headings “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of America First Multifamily Investors, L.P.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.

All references to “we,” “us,” and the “Partnership” in this document mean America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. (“ATAX”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. See Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of the Partnership’s report for additional details.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2018

(UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

General

America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. (the “Partnership”) was formed on April 2, 1998, under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the purpose of acquiring, holding, selling and otherwise dealing with a portfolio of mortgage revenue bonds (“MRBs”) which have been issued to provide construction and/or permanent financing for affordable multifamily and student housing residential properties (collectively “Residential Properties”) and commercial properties. In addition, the Partnership may acquire interests in multifamily, student, and senior citizen residential properties (“MF Properties”) in order to position itself for future investments in MRBs issued to finance these properties or to operate the MF Property until its “highest and best use” can be determined by management.

The general partner of the Partnership is America First Capital Associates Limited Partnership Two (“AFCA 2” or “General Partner”).  The general partner of AFCA 2 is Burlington Capital LLC (“Burlington”). The Partnership has issued Beneficial Unit Certificates (“BUCs”) representing assigned limited partner interests to investors (“Unitholders”). The Partnership has also issued non-cumulative, non-voting and non-convertible Series A Preferred Units which represent limited partnership interests in the Partnership.

The “Partnership,” as used herein, includes America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions are eliminated.  At March 31, 2018, the consolidated subsidiaries of the Partnership (the “Consolidated Subsidiaries”) consist of:

ATAX TEBS I, LLC, a special purpose entity owned and controlled by the Partnership, created to hold MRBs to facilitate the Tax Exempt Bond Securitization (“TEBS”) Financing (“M24 TEBS Financing”) with Freddie Mac.

ATAX TEBS II, LLC, a special purpose entity owned and controlled by the Partnership, created to hold MRBs to facilitate the second TEBS Financing, (“M31 TEBS Financing”) with Freddie Mac.

ATAX TEBS III, LLC, a special purpose entity owned and controlled by the Partnership, created to hold MRBs to facilitate the third TEBS Financing (“M33 TEBS Financing”), with Freddie Mac.

ATAX Vantage Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership, committed to loan money or provide equity for the development of multifamily properties.

One MF Property, The 50/50, is owned by a wholly-owned corporation (“the Greens Hold Co”).

One MF Property, Jade Park, is owned by a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership and one MF Property, Suites on Paseo, is owned directly by the Partnership.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash is legally restricted to use and is comprised of resident security deposits and escrowed funds.  In addition, the Partnership is required to maintain restricted cash balances related to the TEBS Financing facilities and the Partnership’s interest rate derivatives. Restricted cash is presented with cash and cash equivalents on the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows in accordance with the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-18 effective for the Partnership as of January 1, 2018.

Investments in Mortgage Revenue Bond, Taxable Mortgage Revenue Bonds

The Partnership owns certain MRBs that were purchased at a discount or premium. The Partnership chose to early adopt the provisions of ASU 2017-08 relating to premiums on purchased callable debt securities effective January 1, 2018. Upon adoption, premiums on callable MRB investments are amortized as a yield adjustment to the earliest call date. The Partnership recorded a cumulative adjustment to partners’ capital of approximately $217,000 as of January 1, 2018 related to the adoption of ASU 2017-08. Results for prior periods were not adjusted and premiums continue to be reported as a yield adjustment to the stated maturity. The

7


approximate impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-08 to net income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was a decrease in investment income of approximately $17,000 as compared to the historical accounting policy. Discounts on MRB investments continue to be amortized as a yield adjustment to the stated maturity. Amortization of premiums and discounts are recognized as investment income on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Income Taxes

No provision has been made for income taxes of the Partnership because the Unitholders are required to report their share of the Partnership’s taxable income for federal and state income tax purposes, except for certain entities described below.  The Partnership recognizes franchise margin tax expense on revenues in certain jurisdictions relating to MF Properties and Investments in unconsolidated entities.

The Greens Hold Co, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership, is a corporation subject to federal and state income taxes.  The Partnership will recognize income tax expense or benefit for the federal and state income taxes incurred by the Greens Hold Co on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Partnership evaluates its tax positions taken in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements under the interpretation for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. As such, the Partnership may recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if the Partnership believes it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities. The Partnership accrues interest and penalties as incurred within income tax expense.

Deferred income tax expense, or benefit, is generally a function of the period’s temporary differences (items that are treated differently for tax purposes than for financial reporting purposes such as depreciation, amortization of financing costs, etc.) and the utilization of tax net operating losses (“NOL”) generated in prior years that had been previously recognized as deferred income tax assets. The Partnership records a valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets if it believes all, or some portion, of the deferred income tax asset may not be realized. Any increase or decrease in the valuation allowance that results from a change in circumstances that causes a change in the estimated ability to realize the related deferred income tax asset is included in deferred income tax expense.

Revenue Recognition on Investments in Real Estate

The Partnership’s MF Properties are lessors of multifamily, student housing, and senior citizen rental units under leases with terms of one year or less. Rental revenue is recognized, net of rental concessions, on a straight-line method over the related lease term. The Partnership also recognizes other non-lease revenues related to other operations at the MF Properties such as parking and food service revenues at student housing properties. Such revenues are recognized over time as services are provided. Such non-lease revenue streams are within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, which is effective for the Partnership as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Partnerships’ condensed consolidated financial statements.

Restricted Unit Awards (“RUAs”)

The Partnership’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) permits the grant of Restricted Units and other awards to the employees of Burlington, the Partnership, or any affiliate of either, and members of Burlington’s Board of Managers for up to 3.0 million BUCs.  RUAs are generally granted with vesting conditions ranging from three months to three years. RUAs currently provide for the payment of quarterly distributions during the vesting period. The RUAs provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control or upon death or disability of the Participant. The Partnership accounts for forfeitures when they occur.

The fair value of each RUA is estimated on the grant date based on the Partnership’s exchange-listed closing price of the BUCs. The Partnership recognizes compensation expense for the RUAs on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period. The Partnership will account for modifications to RUAs as they occur if the fair value of the RUAs change, there are changes to vesting conditions or the awards no longer qualify for equity classification.

Estimates and assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) 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.  The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with

8


GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequat e to make the information presented not misleading.

The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared consistently with the 2017 Form 10-K, with the exception of new accounting standards that were adopted and are discussed herein. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position at March 31, 2018, and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017, was derived from audited annual financial statements, but does not contain all the footnote disclosures from the annual consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326).” The ASU enhances the methodology of measuring expected credit losses to include the use of forward-looking information to better inform credit loss estimates. The ASU is effective for the Partnership’s annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and is applied under a modified-retrospective approach. The Partnership is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this pronouncement on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The ASU requires the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. The ASU offers specific accounting guidance for embedded lease arrangements, lease terms and incentives, sale-leaseback agreements, and related disclosures. The ASU is effective for the Partnership’s annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Partnership has performed a preliminary assessment of its lessor and lessee leasing arrangements. Lessor arrangements with tenants at the MF Properties are not expected to be materially impacted by adoption of the standard as substantially all leases are for terms of 12 months or less. The Partnership has four lessee arrangements for which it is assessing the quantitative and qualitative impact of the standard. The Partnership has not elected early adoption of the standard and is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Partnership Income, Expenses and Cash Distributions

The Partnership’s Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “Amended and Restated LP Agreement”) contains provisions for the distribution of Net Interest Income, Net Residual Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, for the allocation of income or loss from operations and for the allocation of income and loss arising from a repayment, sale, or liquidation of investments.  Income and losses will be allocated to each Unitholder on a periodic basis, as determined by the General Partner, based on the number of BUCs held by each Unitholder as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is to be made. Distributions of Net Interest Income and Net Residual Proceeds will be made to each Unitholder of record on the last day of each distribution period based on the number of BUCs held by each Unitholder on that date. For purposes of the Amended and Restated LP Agreement, cash distributions, if any, received by the Partnership from its investment in MF Properties will be included in the Partnership’s Net Interest Income and cash distributions received by the Partnership from the sale of such properties will be included in the Partnership’s Net Residual Proceeds.

Series A Preferred Units were created pursuant to the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated LP Agreement (the “First Amendment”), which became effective on March 30, 2016. The holders of the Series A Preferred Units are entitled to distributions at a fixed rate prior to payment of distributions to other Unitholders.

Cash distributions are currently made on a quarterly basis. AFCA 2 can elect to make distributions on a monthly or semi-annual basis. On each distribution date, Net Interest Income (Tier 1) is distributed 99% to the limited partners and Unitholders as a class and 1% to AFCA 2. Net Interest Income (Tier 2) and Net Residual Proceeds (Tier 2) representing contingent interest up to 0.9% per annum of the principal amount of the MRBs on a cumulative basis are distributed 75% to the limited partners and Unitholders as a class and 25% to AFCA 2. Net Interest Income (Tier 3) and Net Residual Proceeds (Tier 3) received by the Partnership in excess of any contingent interest included in Net Interest Income (Tier 2) and Net Residual Proceeds (Tier 2) are distributed 100% to the limited partners and Unitholders as a class.

4. Net income per BUC

The Partnership has disclosed basic and diluted net income per BUC on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The unvested RUAs issued under the Plan are considered participating securities. There were no dilutive Units for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

5. Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”)

The Partnership determined the TOB Trusts, Term A/B Trusts and TEBS Financings are VIEs and the Partnership is the primary beneficiary.  As such, the Partnership reports the TOB Trusts, Term A/B Trusts and TEBS Financings on a consolidated basis. The Partnership reports the senior floating-rate participation interests (“SPEARS”) related to the TOB Trusts and the Class A Certificates for both the Term A/B Trusts and TEBS Financings as secured debt financings on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The MRBs secured by the TOB Trusts, Term A/B Trusts and TEBS Financings are reported as assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In determining the primary beneficiary of these specific VIEs, the Partnership considered which party has the power to control the activities of the VIEs which most significantly impact their financial performance, the risks that the entity was designed to create, and how each risk affects the VIE.  The executed agreements related to the TOB Trusts, Term A/B Trusts and TEBS Financings stipulate the Partnership has the sole right to cause the Trusts to sell the underlying assets. If they were sold, the extent to which the VIEs will be exposed to gains or losses would result from decisions made by the Partnership.

Non-Consolidated VIEs

The Partnership has variable interests in various entities in the form of MRBs, property loans and investments in unconsolidated entities. These variable interests do not allow the Partnership to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of such VIEs. As a result, the Partnership is not considered the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate the financial statements of these VIEs in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Partnership held variable interests in 22 and 23 non-consolidated VIEs at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The following table summarizes the Partnerships variable interests in these entities at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

39,608,927

$

186,931,601

$

201,777,735

The maximum exposure to loss for the MRBs is equal to the cost adjusted for paydowns at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The difference between a MRB’s carrying value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the maximum exposure to loss is a function of the unrealized gains or losses on the MRB.

The maximum exposure to loss on the property loans at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is equal to the unpaid principal balance plus accrued interest. The difference between a property loans’ carrying value and the maximum exposure is the value of loan loss allowances that have been previously recorded against the property loans.

6 . Investments in Mortgage Revenue Bonds (“MRBs”)

MRBs owned by the Partnership have been issued to provide construction and/or permanent financing for Residential Properties and commercial properties.  MRBs are either held directly by the Partnership or are held in trusts created in connection with debt financing transactions (Note 14). The Partnership had the following investments in MRBs at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

7. PHC Certificates

The Partnership owned 100% of the Residual Participation Receipts (“LIFERs”) in three tender option bond trusts (“PHC Trusts”) that contain the PHC Certificates.  The assets held by the PHC Trusts consist of custodial receipts evidencing loans made to numerous local public housing authorities.  Principal and interest on these loans are payable by the respective public housing authorities out of annual appropriations to be made to the public housing authorities by HUD under HUD’s Capital Fund Program established under the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998 (the “Capital Fund Program”).  The PHC Trusts have a first lien on these annual Capital Fund Program payments to secure the public housing authorities’ respective obligations to pay principal and interest on their loans.  The loans payable by the public housing authorities are not debts of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America or HUD.  Interest payable on the public housing authority debt held by the PHC Trusts is exempt from federal income taxes.  The PHC Certificates issued by each of the PHC Trusts have been rated investment grade by Standard & Poor’s.

The Partnership had the following investments in the PHC Certificates at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the interest to be earned on the Ashley Square, Cross Creek, and the Lake Forest operating property loans receivable was in nonaccrual status.  The discounted cash flow method used by management to establish the net realizable value of these property loans determined the collection of the interest earned since inception was not probable.  In addition, the Partnership deferred less than 100% of the interest earned on the property loans on the Ohio Properties as, in management’s opinion, the remainder was considered collectible.

11. Income Tax Provision

The Partnership recognizes current income tax expense for federal, state, and local income taxes incurred by our taxable subsidiary, the Greens Hold Co, which owns all the MF Properties except the Suites on Paseo and Jade Park. The Partnership’s income tax expense fluctuates from period to period based on the timing of the taxable income. Deferred income tax expense is generally a function of the period’s temporary differences (i.e. depreciation, amortization of finance costs, etc.), and the utilization of net operating losses generated in prior years. The Partnership’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are valued based on enacted tax rates as of the reporting date, including consideration of the Jobs and Tax Cuts Act of 2017.

The following represents income tax expense for the Greens Hold Co for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 :

The Partnership evaluated whether it is more likely than not that its deferred income tax assets are realizable and recorded a valuation allowance of approximately $108,000 against its deferred income tax assets as of March 31, 2018. There was no valuation allowance recorded as of December 31, 2017.

The outstanding balance on the non-operating LOC is due between June 2018 and September 2018, befor e consideration of the Partnership’s extension payment options. If extension options are utilized, the balance will be due upon maturity of the non-operating LOC commitment.

The Partnership is required to make prepayments of the principal to reduce the Bankers Trust Operating LOC to zero for fifteen consecutive calendar days during each calendar quarter.  For all periods presented the Partnership has fulfilled its prepayment obligation.   In addition, the Partnership has fulfilled its second quarter of 2018 prepayment obligation as it maintained a zero balance in the Operating LOC for the first fifteen days of April 2018. The Partnership is in compliance with all covenants at March 31, 2018.

The TOB and Term A/B Trusts are subject to a Master Trust Agreement with DB that contains covenants with which the Partnership is required to comply. If the Partnership were to be out of compliance with any of these covenants, a termination event of the financing facilities would be triggered. The most restrictive covenant within the Master Trust Agreement states that cash available to distribute plus interest expense for the trailing twelve months must be at least twice the trailing twelve-month interest expense. At March 31, 2018, the Partnership was in compliance with these covenants.

At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Partnership posted cash collateral (i.e. restricted cash) related to the interest rate swaps associated with specific debt financings. The Partnership has also posted cash collateral as contractually required under the terms of the three TEBS Financings. In addition, to mitigate its exposure to interest rate fluctuations on the variable rate TEBS Financings, the Partnership also entered into interest rate cap agreements (Note 16).

The Partnership is required to fund a cash collateral account at DB for an amount greater than or equal to the fair value of the interest rate swaps. Such cash balances were approximately $377,000 and $850,000 at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and are reported within restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Partnership’s interest rate derivatives and interest rate swaps are not designated as hedging instruments and, accordingly, they are recorded at fair value. Changes in fair value are included in current period earnings as interest expense. See Note 21 for a description of the methodology and significant assumptions for determining the fair value of the interest rate derivatives and interest rate swap arrangements. The interest rate derivatives are presented within Other assets and the interest rate swap arrangements are reported as a derivative swap liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

17. Commitments and Contingencies

The Partnership, from time to time, may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business.  These matters are frequently covered by insurance.  If it has been determined that a loss is probable, the estimated amount of the loss is accrued in the condensed consolidated financial statements. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the final outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Bond Purchase Commitments

As part of the Partnership’s strategy of acquiring MRBs, it will enter into bond purchase commitments related to MRBs to be issued and secured by properties under construction.  Upon satisfaction of the terms of the bond purchase commitment, the proceeds from the MRBs issued will be used to pay off the construction related debt of the underlying collateral of the MRB to be issued. The Partnership bears no construction or stabilization risk during the commitment period. The Partnership accounts for bond purchase commitments as available-for-sale securities and reports the asset or liability at fair value. Changes in the fair value of bond purchase commitments are recorded in Other comprehensive income.

Property Loan Commitments

ATAX Vantage Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership, committed to loan approximately $17.0 million to unrelated third parties to build two new multifamily residential properties, Vantage at Brooks, LLC and Vantage at Braunfels, LLC, both located in Texas. At March 31, 2018, the Partnership’s remaining maximum commitments totaled approximately $1.2 million. See Note 10 for disclosures related to these property loans.

Other Guarantees & Commitments

In March 2018, the Partnership entered into a guaranty agreement whereby the Partnership has guaranteed payment of the construction loan of Vantage at Stone Creek, LLC. The Partnership will only have to perform on the guarantee upon a default by Vantage at Stone Creek, LLC. The guarantee is initially for the entire amount of the construction loan and decreases to 50% when the project receives a certificate of occupancy and 25% as certain debt service coverage levels are obtained by the borrower. The construction loan has a maximum available balance of $30.8 million. At March 31, 2018, there was no outstanding balance on the construction loan and the Partnership had no exposure under the guarantee.

In March 2017, the Partnership entered into a guaranty agreement whereby the Partnership has guaranteed payment of the construction loan of Vantage at Panama City Beach, LLC. The Partnership will only have to perform on the guarantee upon a default by Vantage at Panama City Beach, LLC. The guarantee is initially for the entire amount of the construction loan and decreases to 50% and 25% as certain debt service coverage levels are obtained by the borrower. The construction loan has a maximum available balance of $25.6

24


million. The outstanding balance on the construction loan was approximately $16.6 million at March 31, 2018, which is the Partnership’s current exposure under the guarantee. No amount has been accrued for this contingent liability because the likelihood of a guarantee claim is remote. The Partnership is also required to maintain minimum cash and net worth requirements, which were met as of March 31, 2018.

Pursuant to the sale of the Greens Property in 2012, the Partnership entered into guarantee agreements with an unaffiliated entity under which the Partnership has guaranteed certain obligations of the general partner of the Greens of Pine Glen limited partnership, including an obligation to repurchase the interests of BC Partners if certain “repurchase events” occur.  Remaining potential repurchase events relate primarily to the delivery of LIHTCs, or tax credit recapture and foreclosure.  No amount has been accrued for this contingent liability because the likelihood of a repurchase event is remote.  The maximum exposure to the Partnership at March 31, 2018, under the guarantee provision of the repurchase clause is approximately $2.6 million and represents 75% of the equity contributed by BC Partners. The term of the guarantee agreement ends in 2027.

Pursuant to the Ohio Properties transaction in 2011, the Partnership entered into guarantee agreements with an unaffiliated entity under which the Partnership has guaranteed certain obligations of the general partner of these limited partnerships, including an obligation to repurchase the interests of BC Partners if certain “repurchase events” occur.  Remaining potential repurchase events relate primarily to the delivery of LIHTCs, or tax credit recapture and foreclosure.  No amount has been accrued for this contingent liability because the likelihood of a repurchase event is remote.  The maximum exposure to the Partnership at March 31, 2018, under the guarantee provision of the repurchase clause is approximately $4.1 million and represents 75% of the equity contributed by BC Partners. The term of the guarantee agreement ends in 2026.

The 50/50 MF Property has a ground lease with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with an initial lease term expiring in March 2038. There is also an option to extend the lease for an additional five-year period.  Annual lease payments are $100 per year. In conjunction with the ground lease, The 50/50 MF Property has entered into an agreement whereby it is required to make monthly payments, when cash is available at the property, to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln based on its revenues.  At March 31, 2018, the minimum aggregate annual payment due under the agreement is approximately $127,000. The minimum aggregate annual expense increases 2% annually until July 31, 2034 and increases 3% annually thereafter.  The 50/50 MF Property may be required to make additional payments under the agreement if its gross revenues exceed certain thresholds. The agreement will terminate upon termination of the ground lease. The Partnership reported accounts payable related to this agreement of approximately $105,000 and $125,000 at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The Partnership reported expenses related to the agreement of approximately $42,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

As the holder of residual interests issued in its TOB Trust, Term A/B Trust and TEBS Financing arrangements, the Partnership is required to guarantee certain losses that can be incurred by the trusts created in connection with these financings.  These guarantees may result from a downgrade in the investment rating of PHCs held by the trust or of the senior securities issued by the trust, a ratings downgrade of the liquidity provider for the trust, increases in short term interest rates beyond pre-set maximums, an inability to re-market the senior securities or an inability to obtain liquidity for the trust. In the case of the TEBS, Freddie Mac will step in first on an immediate basis and the Partnership will have 10 to 14 days to remedy. If the Partnership does not remedy, the trust will be collapsed.  If such an event occurs, the trust collateral may be sold and if the proceeds are not sufficient to pay the principal amount of the senior securities plus accrued interest and other trust expenses, the Partnership will be required to fund any such shortfall pursuant to its guarantee. If the Partnership does not fund the shortfall, the default and liquidation provisions will be invoked against the Partnership. In the event of a shortfall the maximum exposure to loss would be approximately $554.3 million prior to the consideration of the proceeds from the sale of the trust collateral. The Partnership has never been, and does not expect in the future, to be required to reimburse the financing facilities for any shortfall.

18. Redeemable Series A Preferred Units

The Partnership has issued non-cumulative, non-voting, non-convertible Series A Preferred Units via private placements to four financial institutions. The Series A Preferred Units are redeemable in the future and represent limited partnership interests in the Partnership.

19. Restricted Unit Awards (“RUAs”)

The Partnership’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (“Plan”), as approved by the Unitholders, permits the grant of Restricted Units and other awards to the employees of Burlington, the Partnership, or any affiliate of either, and members of Burlington’s Board of Managers for up to 3.0 million BUCs. RUAs are generally granted with vesting conditions ranging from three months to approximately three years. RUAs currently provide for the payment of quarterly distributions during the vesting period. The RUA’s provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control or death or disability of the Participant.

The fair value of each RUA is estimated on the grant date based on the Partnership’s exchange-listed closing price of the BUCs. The Partnership recognizes compensation expense for the RUAs on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period. The compensation expense for RUAs totaled approximately $207,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The compensation expense for RUAs totaled approximately $171,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

The following table represents nonvested Restricted Units at and for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

The total intrinsic value of nonvested RUAs was approximately $3.0 million at March 31, 2018.

20. Transactions with Related Parties

The General Partner of the Partnership, AFCA 2, is entitled to receive an administrative fee from the Partnership equal to 0.45% per annum of the outstanding principal balance of any of its MRBs, property loans collateralized by real property, and other investments for which the owner of the financed property or other third party is not obligated to pay such administrative fee directly to AFCA 2.  The Partnership paid or accrued administrative fees to AFCA 2 of approximately $922,000 and $865,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. In addition to the administrative fees paid directly by the Partnership, AFCA 2 receives administrative fees directly from the owners of properties financed by certain of the MRBs held by the Partnership.  These administrative fees also equal 0.45% per annum of the outstanding principal balance of these MRBs and totaled approximately $25,000 and $15,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

AFCA 2 earns placement fees in connection with the acquisition of certain MRBs, equity investments in unconsolidated entities and select property loans.  These placement fees were paid by the owners of the respective properties and, accordingly, have not been

26


reflected in the accom panying condensed consolidated financial statements because these properties are not considered consolidated VIEs or related parties.  AFCA 2 earned placement fees of approximately $1,068,000 and $938,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

An affiliate of AFCA 2, Burlington Capital Properties, LLC (“Properties Management”) provided property management services for the MF Properties (excluding Suites on Paseo) and eight of the properties collateralizing MRBs during the three months ended March 31, 2018. Properties Management earned total fees related to the MF Properties of approximately $50,000 and $113,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  For MF Properties, the property management fees are reflected as real estate operating expenses on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the properties collateralizing MRBs, the property management fees are not Partnership expenses, but are paid in each case by the owner of the Residential Properties. These property management fees are paid out of the revenues generated by the respective property prior to the payment of debt service on the Partnership's MRBs and property loans, if applicable.

An affiliate of AFCA 2, Farnam Capital Advisors, LLC (“Farnam Cap”), acts as an origination advisor and consultant to the borrowers when MRBs, Investments in unconsolidated entities, select notes receivable, and financing facilities are acquired by the Partnership. Origination fees paid to this affiliate by the borrower of certain acquired bonds were zero and approximately $269,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. These origination fees were paid by the borrower and since they are not Partnership expenses, they have not been reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The Partnership paid consulting fees to the affiliate of zero and approximately $921,000 for services related to the origination of Term A/B Trusts during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

21. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Current accounting guidance on fair value measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value and provides for expanded disclosures about fair value measurements.  The guidance:

Defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and

Establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date.

Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk.  To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, the fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels.  The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for asset or liabilities.

The categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Investments in MRBs and Bond Purchase Commitments

The fair value of the Partnership’s investments in MRBs and bond purchase commitments at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2018 is based upon prices obtained from a third-party pricing service, which are indicative of market prices. There is no active trading market for the MRBs and price quotes for the MRBs are not available. The valuation methodology of the Partnership’s third-party pricing service incorporates commonly used market pricing methods. It considers the underlying characteristics of each MRB as well as other quantitative and qualitative characteristics including, but not limited to, market interest rates, legal structure of the borrower, seniority to other obligations, operating results of the underlying property, geographic location, and property quality. The MRB values are then estimated using a discounted cash flow and yield to maturity or call analysis. The Partnership evaluates pricing data received from the third-party pricing service, including consideration of current market interest rates, quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the underlying collateral, and other information from either the third-party pricing service or public sources. The fair value

27


estimates of these MRBs are based largely on unobservable inputs believed to be used by market participants and requires the use of judgment on the part of the third-party pricing service and management. Due to the judgments involved, the fair value measurements of the Partnership’s investments in MRBs and mortgage bond purchase commitments are categorized as a Level 3 input. At March 31, 2018, the range of effective yields on the individual MRBs was 3.2% to 8 .8% per annum. At December 31, 2017, the range of effective yields on the individual MRBs and bond purchase commitments was 2.9% to 8.8% per annum.

Investments in Public Housing Capital Fund Trust Certificates

The fair value of the Partnership’s investment in PHC Certificates at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is based upon prices obtained from a third-party pricing service, which are indicative of market prices. There is no active trading market for the trusts’ certificates owned by the Partnership. The valuation methodology of the Partnership’s third-party pricing service incorporates commonly used market pricing methods. It considers the underlying characteristics of each PHC Trust as well as other quantitative and qualitative characteristics including, but not limited to, market interest rates, security ratings from rating agencies, the impact of potential political and regulatory change, and other inputs. During the second quarter of 2017, the Partnership analyzed pricing data received from the third-party pricing service by comparing it to the Partnership’s internal valuation methodology. The Partnership’s internal valuation methodology utilized the current market yield rate for a “AAA” rated tax-free municipal bond for a term consistent with the weighted-average life of each of the Public Housing Capital Fund trusts, adjusted largely for unobservable inputs the Partnership believes would be used by market participants. During the third quarter of 2017, the Partnership continued to utilize the third-party pricing service to obtain prices, which are indicative of market prices, for its PHC Certificates. The Partnership engaged a second third-party pricing service whose methodology was consistent with the Partnership’s internal valuation methodology and is utilized by the Partnership to confirm the values developed by its primary third-party pricing service. As such, the Partnership did not utilize its internal methodology to price the PHC Certificates. The Partnership reviews the inputs used by the primary third-party pricing service by reviewing source information and reviews the methodology for reasonableness. The valuation methodologies used by the third-party pricing services and the Partnership encompass the use of judgment in their application. Due to the judgments involved, the fair value measurement of the Partnership’s investment in PHC Certificates is categorized as a Level 3 input.

Taxable MRBs

The fair value of the Partnership’s taxable MRBs at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is based upon prices obtained from a third-party pricing service, which are indicative of market prices. There is no active trading market for the taxable MRBs and price quotes are not available. The valuation methodology of the Partnership’s third-party pricing service incorporates commonly used market pricing methods. It considers the underlying characteristics of each taxable bond as well as other quantitative and qualitative characteristics including, but not limited to, market interest rates, legal structure of the borrower, subordinate to other obligations, operating results of the underlying property, geographic location, and property quality. The taxable MRB values are then estimated using a discounted cash flow and yield to maturity or call analysis. The Partnership evaluates pricing data received from the third-party pricing service, including consideration of current market interest rates, quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the underlying collateral, and other information from either the third-party pricing service or public sources. The fair value estimates of these taxable MRBs are based largely on unobservable inputs believed to be used by market participants and requires the use of judgment on the part of the third-party pricing service and management. Due to the judgments involved, the fair value measurement of the Partnership’s investments in taxable MRBs is categorized as a Level 3 input. At March 31, 2018, the range of effective yields on the individual taxable MRBs was 7.9% to 9.3% per annum. At December 31, 2017, the range of effective yields on the individual taxable MRBs was 7.9% to 9.2% per annum.

Interest Rate Derivatives.

The effect of the Partnership’s interest rate derivatives is to set a cap, or upper limit, on the base rate of interest paid on the Partnership’s variable rate debt equal to the notional amount of the derivative agreement.   The effect of the Partnership’s interest rate swaps is to change a variable rate debt obligation to a fixed rate for that portion of the debt equal to the notional amount of the derivative agreement.  The fair value of the interest rate derivatives is based on a model whose inputs are not observable and therefore is categorized as a Level 3 input.  The inputs in the valuation model include three-month LIBOR rates, unobservable adjustments to account for the SIFMA index, as well as any recent interest rate cap trades with similar terms.

At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Partnership utilized a third-party pricing service to determine the fair value of the Partnership’s financial liabilities, which are indicative of market prices. The valuation methodology of the Partnership’s third-party pricing service incorporates commonly used market pricing methods. It considers the underlying characteristics of each financial liability as well as other quantitative and qualitative characteristics including, but not limited to, market interest rates, legal structure, seniority to other obligations, operating results of the underlying assets, and asset quality. The financial liabilities values are then estimated using a discounted cash flow and yield to maturity or call analysis. The Partnership evaluates pricing data received from the third-party pricing service, including consideration of current market interest rates, quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the underlying collateral, and other information from either the third-party pricing service or public sources. The fair value estimates of these financial liabilities are based largely on unobservable inputs believed to be used by market participants and requires the use of judgment on the part of the third-party pricing service and management. Due to the judgments involved, the fair value measurements of the Partnership’s financial liabilities are categorized as a Level 3 input. The TEBS and variable-rate TOB debt financings are credit

enhanced by Freddie Mac and DB, respectively. The table below summarizes the fair value of the financial liabilities at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

22. Segments

The Partnership has four reportable segments - Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments, MF Properties, Public Housing Capital Fund Trusts, and Other Investments.  In addition to the four reportable segments, the Partnership also separately reports its consolidation and elimination information because it does not allocate certain items to the segments.

The Amended and Restated LP Agreement authorizes the Partnership to make investments in tax-exempt securities other than in MRBs provided that the tax-exempt investments are rated in one of the four highest rating categories by a national securities rating agency. The Amended and Restated LP Agreement also allows the Partnership to invest in other securities whose interest may be taxable for federal income tax purposes. Total tax-exempt and other investments cannot exceed 25% of the Partnership’s total assets at the time of acquisition as required under the Amended and Restated LP Agreement.  In addition, the amount of other investments is limited based on the conditions to the exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940.  The Partnership’s tax-exempt and other investments include PHC Certificates, MBS Securities, and Other Investments, which are reported as three separate segments.

Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments Segment

The Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments segment consists of the Partnership’s portfolio of MRBs and related property loans which have been issued to provide construction and/or permanent financing for Residential Properties and commercial properties in their market areas.  Such MRBs are held as investments and the related property loans, net of loan loss, are reported as such on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.  At March 31, 2018, the Partnership held 84 MRBs. The Residential Properties financed by MRBs contain a total of 10,666 rental units. In addition, one bond (Pro Nova 2014-1) is collateralized by commercial real estate. All general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations are reported within this operating segment.

Public Housing Capital Fund Trust Segment

The Public Housing Capital Fund Trust segment consists of the assets, liabilities, and related income and expenses of the Partnership’s PHC Certificates (see Note 7).

MF Properties Segment

The MF Properties segment consists of multifamily, student housing, and senior citizen residential properties held by the Partnership. During the time the Partnership holds an interest in an MF Property, any net rental income generated by the MF Properties in excess of debt service will be available for distribution to the Partnership in accordance with its interest in the MF Property.  At March 31, 2018, the segment includes the three MF Properties comprised of a total of 1,012 rental units. Income tax expense for the Greens Hold Co is reported within this segment.

Other Investments Segment

The Other investments segment consists of the operations of ATAX Vantage Holdings, LLC, which is invested in unconsolidated entities (Note 9) and has issued property loans due from Vantage at Brooks LLC and Vantage at New Braunfels LLC (Note 10).

23. Subsequent Events

In April 2018, the Seasons at Simi Valley Series B MRB was redeemed at a price equal to the Partnership’s carrying value plus accrued interest.

In April and May 2018, the Oaks at Georgetown Series B, San Vicente Series B, and The Village at Madera Series B MRBs were redeemed at a price equal to the Partnership’s carrying value plus accrued interest. Upon redemption, the Term A/B Trusts associated with these MRBs were collapsed and paid off in full at prices equal to the outstanding principal plus accrued interest.

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

In Management’s Discussion and Analysis, the “Partnership” refers to America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. and its Consolidated Subsidiaries at March 31, 2018. See Note 2 and Note 5 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements for further disclosure.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Partnership’s critical accounting policies are the same as those described in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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.

Executive Summary

The Partnership was formed for the primary purpose of acquiring a portfolio of MRBs that are issued by state and local housing authorities to provide construction and/or permanent financing for affordable multifamily, student, and senior citizen residential properties (collectively “Residential Properties”) and commercial properties in their market areas. We expect and believe the interest received on these MRBs is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. We may also invest in other types of securities that may or may not be secured by real estate to the extent allowed by the Amended and Restated LP Agreement of the Partnership. We may acquire interests in MF Properties to position ourselves for future investments in MRBs issued to finance these properties and which we expect and believe will generate tax-exempt interest.

At March 31, 2018, the Partnership has four reportable segments: (1) Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments, (2) MF Properties, (3) Public Housing Capital Fund Trust, and (4) Other Investments. In addition to the reportable segments, the Partnership also separately reports its consolidation and elimination information because it does not allocate certain items to the segments.  See Notes 2 and 21 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details.

Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments Segment

The Partnership’s primary purpose is to acquire and hold as investments a portfolio of MRBs which have been issued to provide construction and/or permanent financing for Residential Properties and commercial properties in their market areas.

The increase in total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is due to an increase of approximately $1.4 million in recurring investment income from MRBs purchased during 2017 and additional interest income of approximately $726,000, offset by a decrease of approximately $747,000 in recurring investment income due to MRB principal payments received and redemptions during 2017 and the first quarter of 2018.

The decrease in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is attributable to offsetting factors. Interest expense increased by approximately $397,000 due to an increase of approximately 28 basis points in the average interest rate. Interest expense increased by approximately $268,000 due to an increase of approximately $32.1 million in average principal outstanding. These increases are offset by a decrease of approximately $719,000 related to fair value adjustments for interest rate derivatives.

The increase in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is due to the changes in total revenues and interest expense above and a decrease of approximately $482,000 in salaries and benefits.

Public Housing Capital Fund Trust Segment

The PHC Certificates consist of custodial receipts evidencing loans made to several public housing authorities.

The decrease in total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017 is the result of principal reductions of the PHC Certificates during 2017 and the first quarter of 2018. The decrease in total interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017 is due to a reduction of expense of approximately $393,000 related to fair value adjustments for interest rate swaps.

MF Properties Segment

The Partnership’s strategy has been to acquire ownership positions in MF Properties while assessing the viability of restructuring the property ownership through a sale of the MF Properties. At March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Partnership and its Consolidated Subsidiaries owned three and six MF Properties, respectively, which contain a total of 1,012 and 1,710 rental units, respectively.

The decrease in total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is due to a decrease of approximately $1.4 million from the sale of Northern View in March 2017 and the sales of Residences of Weatherford, Residences of DeCordova and Eagle Village in November 2017.

The gain on sale of real estate assets for the three months ended March 31, 2017 consists primarily of a $7.2 million gain on sale of Northern View in March 2017. There were no such transactions in the three months ended March 31, 2018.

The decrease in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same periods in 2017 is due primarily to a decrease in the average principal outstanding of approximately $15.8 million from the settlement of mortgages payable on MF Properties sold in November 2017.

The decrease in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same periods in 2017 is due primarily to the change in gain on sale of real estate assets, net of a decrease in income tax expenses of $2.5 million, and a decrease in amortization expense of approximately $232,000 for in-place lease amortization at Jade Park in the first quarter of 2017 that did not occur in 2018.

Other Investments Segment

The Other Investments segment consists of the operations of ATAX Vantage Holdings, LLC, which holds noncontrolling equity investments in certain multifamily projects and has issued property loans due from multifamily projects.

Discussion of the Residential Properties Securing our Mortgage Revenue Bonds and MF Properties

The following tables outline certain information regarding the Residential Properties on which the Partnership holds MRBs as investments and the MF Properties.

Non-Consolidated Properties - Stabilized

The owners of the following properties either do not meet the definition of a VIE and/or the Partnership has evaluated and determined it is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE.  As a result, the Partnership does not report the assets, liabilities and results of operations of these properties on a consolidated basis.  At March 31, 2018, these Residential Properties have met the stabilization criteria (see footnote 3 below the table). Debt service on the Partnership’s bonds for the non-consolidated stabilized properties was current at March 31, 2018.

Physical occupancy is defined as the total number of units occupied divided by total units at the date of measurement.

(2)

Economic occupancy is defined as the net rental income received divided by the maximum amount of rental income expected based on market conditions to be derived from each property. This statistic is reflective of rental concessions, delinquent rents and non-revenue units such as model units and employee

units. Physical occupancy is a point in time measure while economic occupancy is a measurement over the period presented. Therefore, economic occupancy for a period may exceed the actual occupancy at any point in time.

(3)

A property is considered stabilized once it reaches 90% occupancy for 90 days and an achievement of 1.15 times debt service coverage ratio on amortizing debt service for a period after construction completion or completion of the rehabilitation.

(4)

The Partnership holds approximately $17.6 million of MRBs secured by Crescent Village, Willow Bend and Postwoods (Ohio Properties).  Crescent Village is located in Cincinnati, Ohio, Willow Bend is located in Columbus (Hilliard), Ohio and Postwoods is located in Reynoldsburg, Ohio.

(5)

The property relates to a forward bond purchase commitment that was executed in the fourth quarter of 2017. The property was considered stabilized when the MRB was acquired.

(6)

The MRB associated with the property was redeemed in the fourth quarter of 2017, so the number of units and occupancy are not applicable as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2018

Physical and economic occupancy increased slightly for the stabilized Residential Properties for the first quarter of 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. The increase is due primarily to the stabilization of Columbia Gardens, Willow Run, Crossing at 1415 and Heights at 515 in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Non-Consolidated Properties - Not Stabilized

The owners of the following properties do not meet the definition of a VIE and/or the Partnership has evaluated and determined it is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE.  As a result, the Partnership does not report the assets, liabilities and results of operations of these properties on a consolidated basis.  At March 31 , 2018 , these Residential Properties have not met the stabilization criteria (see footnote 3 below the table). Debt service on the Partnership’s bonds for the non-consolidated non-stabilized properties was current at March 31 , 2018 .

Therefore, economic occupancy for a period may exceed the actual occupancy at any point in time.

(3)

During the first quarter of 2018, these properties were under construction or renovation.  As such, these properties are not considered stabilized as they have not met the criteria for stabilization. Stabilization is generally defined as 90% occupancy for 90 days and an achievement of 1.15 times debt service coverage ratio on amortizing debt service for a period after construction completion or completion of the rehabilitation.

(4)

Previous period occupancy numbers are not available as these are new investments subsequent to the first quarter of 2017.

Overall physical occupancy for the stabilized Residential Properties is fairly consistent at March 31, 2018 as compared to March 31, 2017.

Overall economic occupancy decreased slightly in the first quarter of 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. The decrease is primarily due to the addition of Rosewood Townhomes and South Pointe Apartments in the fourth quarter of 2017 that have lower than average economic occupancy as they go through rehabilitation.   Additionally, Avistar at Wood Hollow experienced a decrease in economic occupancy as it experienced lower occupancy during rehabilitation in later 2017 and early 2018.

MF Properties

The MF Properties are owned by the Partnership and the Greens Hold Co. We own two MF Properties directly and the remaining MF Properties are wholly-owned by the Greens Hold Co.  The properties are encumbered by mortgage loans and other secured financing with an aggregate net principal balance of $50.6 million at March 31 , 2018 .  We report the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of these properties on a consolidated basis.  At March 31 , 2018 , all the MF Properties have met the stabilization criteria (see footnote 3 below the table). Debt service on our mortgages payable and other secured financing was current at March 31 , 2018 .

A property is considered stabilized once it reaches 90% occupancy for 90 days and an achievement of 1.15 times debt service coverage ratio on amortizing debt service for all MF Properties that are not student housing residential properties. Suites on Paseo, Eagle Village and the 50/50 MF Property are student housing residential properties.

(4)

The property was sold during the fourth quarter of 2017, so unit and occupancy amounts are not applicable as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

The overall increase in physical and economic occupancy for 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is due to improvements at Jade Park and The 50/50. The increases at Jade Park are due to lease-up efforts after completion of rehabilitation projects during late 2017. The increases at The 50/50 are due to marketing and pricing changes implemented by the Partnership and Properties Management for fall 2017 lease-up.

Discussion of the Total Revenues and Other Income for the Three Months Ended March 31 , 2018 and 2017

Property revenues. The decrease in property revenues for the three months ended March 31 , 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is due to a decrease of approximately $1.4 million from the sale of Northern View in March 2017 and the sales of Residences of Weatherford, Residences of DeCordova and Eagle Village in November 2017.

Investment income. Investment income includes interest earned on MRBs, PHC Certificates and other equity investments.  The increase in investment income for the three months ended March 31 , 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is due to the following factors:

An increase of approximately $1.4 million in recurring investment income from MRBs purchased during 2017;

An increase of approximately $439,000 of income on additional equity contributions to unconsolidated entities made during 2017;

An increase of approximately $726,000 of additional interest income recognized in the first quarter of 2018; and

A decrease of approximately $747,000 in recurring investment income due to MRB principal payments received and redemptions during 2017 and the first quarter of 2018.

Contingent interest income. There was no contingent interest income received for the three months ended March 31 , 2018 . For the three months ended March 31, 2017, contingent interest income was received from available excess cash at Lake Forest.

Other interest income. Other interest income is comprised primarily of interest income on property loans and cash equivalents. The increase in other interest income for the three months ended March 31 , 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 was primarily due to an increase of approximately $133,000 in interest income from short-term investments during the first quarter of 2018.

Gain (loss) on sale of real estate assets. There was no gain (loss) on sale reported for the three months ended March 31 , 2018 . The gain reported for the three months ended March 31, 2017, relates to the sale of Northern View in March 2017.

Discussion of the Total Expenses for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017

Real estate operating expenses. Real estate operating expenses are associated with the MF Properties and are comprised principally of real estate taxes, property insurance, utilities, property management fees, repairs and maintenance, and salaries and related employee expenses of on-site employees. The decrease in real estate operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is due to the following factors:

A decrease of approximately $716,000 related to the sales of Northern View in March 2017 and the sales of Residences of Weatherford, Residences of DeCordova and Eagle Village in November 2017; and

A decrease of approximately $77,000 related to rehabilitation costs incurred at Jade Park in the first quarter of 2017 that did not recur in 2018.

40


Depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation relates entirely to the MF Properties.  Amortization consists of in-place lease intangible assets recorded as part of the acquisition-method of accounting for the acquisition of MF Properties. The decrease in depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is due to the following factors:

A decrease of approximately $466,000 in depreciation related to the sales of Northern View in March 2017 and the sales of Residences of Weatherford, Residences of DeCordova and Eagle Village in November 2017; and

A decrease of approximately $232,000 in in-place lease amortization at Jade Park in the first quarter of 2017 that did not occur in 2018.

Amortization of deferred financing costs. Deferred financing costs are amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the related debt financing, mortgage payable or other secured financing. The decrease in amortization of deferred financing costs for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is attributable to the following factors:

A decrease of approximately $203,000 in amortization related to a secured line of credit that matured in March 2017 and was not renewed;

A decrease of approximately $116,000 in amortization related to the TEBS I debt financing. All deferred financing costs related to TEBS I were amortized over the original term and prior to extension of the facility in September 2017.

Interest expense. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is attributable to the following factors:

An increase of approximately $450,000 due to an increase of approximately 28 basis points in the average interest rate; and

A decrease of approximately $1.1 million related to fair value adjustments for interest rate derivatives and swaps.

General and administrative expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 is due to a decrease of approximately $482,000 in salaries and benefits.

Discussion of the Income Tax Expense for the Three Months Ended March 31, 218 and 2017

A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership, the Greens Hold Co, is a corporation subject to federal and state income tax. The Greens Hold Co owns controlling equity interests in the MF Properties, except for Suites on Paseo and Jade Park. The gain on sale of Northern View and normal operating income of the owned MF Properties are subject to federal and state income taxes and the Partnership recorded income tax expense of approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The Greens Hold Co generated minimal taxable income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 due to the sales of all but one MF Property during 2017.

Cash Available for Distribution (“CAD”)

The Partnership believes that CAD provides relevant information about the Partnership’s operations and is necessary, along with net income, for understanding its operating results.  To calculate CAD, the Partnership begins with net income and adds back non-cash expenses consisting of amortization expense related to debt financing costs and bond issuance costs, interest rate derivative expense or income, provision for loan losses, impairments on MRBs, PHC Certificates, real estate assets and property loans, and Restricted Units compensation expense, to the Partnership’s net income (loss) as computed in accordance with GAAP, and deducts Tier 2 income (see Note 3 to the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements) attributable to the Partnership as defined in the Amended and Restated LP Agreement.  Net income is the GAAP measure most comparable to CAD. There is no generally accepted methodology for computing CAD, and the Partnership’s computation of CAD may not be comparable to CAD reported by other companies.  Although the Partnership considers CAD to be a useful measure of the Partnership’s operating performance, CAD is a non-GAAP measure that should not be considered as an alternative to net income that is calculated in accordance with GAAP, or any other measures of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

41


The table below shows the calculation of CAD (and a reconciliation of the Partnership’s GAAP net income to CAD) for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

As described in Note 3 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements, Net Interest Income representing contingent interest and Net Residual Proceeds representing contingent interest (Tier 2 income) will be distributed 75% to the limited partners and Unitholders as a class and 25% to the General Partner. This adjustment represents the 25% of Tier 2 income due to the General Partner.  For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Partnership did not report any Tier 2 income distributable to the General Partner. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Partnership reported approximately $4.3 million of Tier 2 income from the gain on the sale of Northern View and approximately $133,000 from contingent interest received from Lake Forest.

There was no non-recurring CAD per Unit earned by the Partnership for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership’s principal source of cash flow includes:

Interest income earned on MRBs;

Interest income earned on the PHC Certificates;

Excess cash flow generated by the MF Properties;

Excess proceeds from the sale of assets; and

Cash flow, net of expenses, from general Partnership operations.

Additional sources of cash flow may include:

Interest payments received from property loans; and

Contingent interest received from investments in MRBs or property loans.

Interest income is primarily comprised of fixed rate base interest payments received on our MRBs and PHC Certificates that provide consistent cash receipts throughout the year.  Certain MRBs may also generate payments of contingent interest to us from time to time when the underlying Residential Properties generate excess net cash flow from operations, excess proceeds from refinancing or from the sale of the property. For additional details, see the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

Similarly, the economic performance of MF Properties will affect the amount of cash distributions, if any, received by the Partnership from ownership of these properties.  The economic performance of the MF Properties depends on the rental and occupancy rates of the property and on the level of operating expenses. Occupancy rates and rents are directly affected by the supply of, and demand for, apartments in the market where the property is located.  This, in turn, is affected by several factors such as local or national economic

42


conditions, the amount of new apartment construction and the affordability of single-family homes.  In addition, factors such as government regulation (such as zoning laws), inflation, real estate and other taxes, labor problems, and natural disasters can affect the economic operations of an apartment property. Fo r discussion related to economic risk see Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 .

Other sources of cash available to the Partnership include:

Operating line of credit;

Secured and unsecured lines of credit;

Debt financing;

Mortgages payable and other secured financings;

Sale of Series A Preferred Units; and

Sale of additional BUCs.

At March 31, 2018, the Partnership had borrowed the following amounts:

Unsecured lines of credit - $50.0 million;

Debt financing, net - $550.4 million; and

Mortgages payable and other secured financing, net - $35.5 million.

In December 2017, the Partnership initiated an “at the market offering” to sell up to $75.0 million of BUCs at prevailing market prices on the date of sale. The Partnership sold 38,617 BUCs under the program for net proceeds of approximately $192,000, net of issuance costs, during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The “at the market offering” was terminated effective as of March 16, 2018.

Our principal uses of cash are (i) general, administrative and operating expenses, (ii) interest and principal payable on the unsecured and secured lines of credit, (iii) interest and principal payable on the debt financing and mortgages payable and other secured financing, and (iv) payment of distributions to Series A Preferred Unitholders and BUC holders.  We also use cash to acquire additional investments.

(i)

Payment of general, administrative, and operating expenses

The MF Properties’ primary uses of cash were for operating expenses.  We also used cash for general and administrative expenses. For additional details, see the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statement of cash flows in this Form 10-Q.

(ii)

Payment of interest and principal on unsecured and secured lines of credit

We maintain two unsecured lines of credit: an operating and a revolving line of credit. Our operating line of credit allows for the advance of up to $10.0 million to be used for general operations. We are required to make prepayments of the principal to reduce outstanding principal balance on the operating line to zero for fifteen consecutive days during each calendar quarter. We fulfilled this requirement during the three months ended March 31, 2018. In addition, we have fulfilled this requirement for the second quarter of 2018. Our $50.0 million revolving line of credit may be utilized for the purchase of multifamily real estate and taxable or tax-exempt MRBs. Advances on the line of credit are due on the 270 th day following the advance date but may be extended by making certain payments for up to an additional 270 days.

(iii)

Payment of interest and principal on debt and mortgages payable and other secured financing

Our debt financing arrangements consist of various secured financing transactions to leverage our portfolio of MRBs and other investments. The financing arrangements generally involve the securitization of MRBs and other investments into trusts whereby we retain beneficial interests in the trusts that provide certain rights to the underlying investment assets. The remaining beneficial interests are sold to unaffiliated parties with the proceeds being received by the Partnership. The beneficial interests held by unaffiliated parties require periodic interest payments, which may be fixed or variable depending on the terms of the arrangement, and scheduled principal payments.

Our mortgages payable and other secured financing arrangements are used to leverage our MF Properties. The mortgages and other secured financing are entered into with financial institutions and are secured by security interests in the MF Properties. The mortgages and other secured financing bear interest, which may be fixed or variable depending on the terms of the arrangement, and scheduled principal payments.

We anticipate refinancing all debt financing arrangements that will mature during the next twelve months with similar arrangements of terms greater than one year.

(iv)

Payment of distributions to the Unitholders – Series A Preferred Unit and BUC hold ers

Distributions to the Series A Preferred Unitholders, if declared by the General Partner, are paid at a fixed rate of 3.0% annually.  The Series A Preferred Units are non-cumulative, non-voting, non-convertible.

Distributions to the BUC holders may increase or decrease at the determination of the General Partner.  The per Unit cash available for distribution primarily depends on the amount of interest and other cash received by us from our portfolio of MRBs and other investments, the amount of our outstanding debt and the effective interest rates paid by us on this debt, the level of operating and other cash expenses incurred by us, and the number of Units outstanding.

Leverage Ratio

We utilize leverage to enhance rates of return to our Unitholders. We use target ratios for each type of financing obligation utilized by us to manage an overall 75% leverage constraint, as established by the Board of Managers (the “Board”) of Burlington, which is the general partner of the Partnership’s general partner. The amount of leverage utilized is dependent upon several factors, including the assets being leveraged, the leverage program utilized, constraints of market collateral calls and the liquidity and marketability of the underlying collateral of the asset being leveraged. We define our leverage ratio as total outstanding debt divided by total assets using the carrying value of the MRBs, PHC Certificates, initial finance costs and the MF Properties at cost. At March 31, 2018, our overall leverage ratio was approximately 64%.

Cash Flows

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we used approximately $16.5 million of cash, which was the net result of approximately $2.9 million provided by operating activities, approximately $821,000 used in investing activities, and approximately $18.6 million used in financing activities.

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily due to an increase in interest receivable of $1.7 million due to the timing of interest receipts.

Cash used in investing activities totaled $821,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to cash used in investing activities of $52.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase is due primarily to $59.6 million of MRB acquisitions in the first quarter of 2017 whereas there were none in the first quarter of 2018.

Cash used in financing activities totaled $18.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $48.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease is due to various factors. Net proceeds from debt financing and lines of credit activity was $43.5 million during the first quarter of 2017, as compared to a net repayment of $8.3 million in the first quarter of 2018. Furthermore, the Partnership received $16.1 million from issuances of Series A Preferred Units in the first quarter of 2017 whereas the Partnership did not issue any Series A Preferred Units in the first quarter of 2018.

We believe our cash balance and cash provided by the sources discussed herein will be sufficient to pay, or refinance, our debt obligations and to meet our liquidity needs over the next 12 months.

Contractual Obligations

As discussed herein and in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, the debt and mortgage obligations of the Partnership consist of scheduled principal payments on the TOB Trust and Term A/B Trust financing facilities with DB, the TEBS credit facilities with Freddie Mac, and payments on the MF Property mortgages payable and other secured financing.

The Partnership’s contractual obligations presented in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, which is incorporated by reference herein, have only changed pursuant to the executed contracts during the three months ended March 31, 2018 as disclosed herein.

It em 3. Quantitative and Qualitat ive Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no material changes in market risk, except as discussed below, from the information provided under “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Item 7A of the Partnership’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Mortgage Revenue Bonds and PHC Certificate Sensitivity Analysis

A third-party pricing service is used to value our MRBs. The pricing service uses a discounted cash flow and yield to maturity or call analyses which encompasses judgment in its application.  The key assumption in the yield to maturity or call analysis is the range of effective yields of the individual MRBs.  The effective yield analysis for each MRB considers the current market yield on similar MRBs, specific terms of the MRB, and various characteristics of underlying property serving as collateral for the MRB such as debt service coverage ratio, loan to value, and other characteristics.

We value the PHC Certificates based upon prices obtained from a third-party pricing service, which are indicative of market prices. There is no active trading market for the PHC Certificates. The valuation methodology of our third-party pricing service incorporates commonly used market pricing methods. It considers the underlying characteristics of each PHC Trust as well as other quantitative and qualitative characteristics including, but not limited to, market interest rates, security ratings from rating agencies, the impact of potential political and regulatory change, and other inputs. The fair value estimate by the third-party pricing service encompasses the use of judgment in its application.

We completed a sensitivity analysis which is hypothetical and is as of a specific point in time.  The results of the sensitivity analysis may not be indicative of actual changes in fair value and should be used with caution.

The table below summarizes the sensitivity analysis metrics related to the investments in the MRBs and PHC Certificates at March 31, 2018:

Geographic Risk

The properties securing the MRBs are geographically dispersed throughout the United States with significant concentrations (geographic risk) in Texas, California, and South Carolina.  At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the geographic concentration in Texas as a percentage of the total MRB principal outstanding was approximately 44% and 44%, respectively.  At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the geographic concentration in California as a percentage of the total MRB principal outstanding was approximately 19% and 20%, respectively.   At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the geographic concentration in South Carolina as a percentage of the total MRB principal outstanding was approximately 16% and 16%, respectively.  After review of the properties’ economic performance in Texas, California and South Carolina as compared to general market conditions in these markets, we do not believe we are exposed to adverse risk in these markets.

Summary of Interest Rates on Borrowings and Interest Rate Cap Agreements

At March 31, 2018, the total costs of borrowing by investment type were as follows:

The unsecured LOCs range between 4.7% and 4.9%;

The M24, M31, and M33 TEBS facilities range between 2.9% and 3.5%;

The Term TOB Trusts securitized by MRBs range between 4.0% and 4.4%;

The Term A/B Trusts securitized by MRBs range between 3.6% and 4.5%;

The TOB Trusts securitized by PHC Certificates are 3.8%; and

The mortgages payable and other secured financings range between 3.9% and 4.7%.

The interest rate sensitivity table (“Table”) represents the change in interest income from investments net of interest on debt and interest rate derivative expenses over the next twelve months, assuming an immediate parallel shift in the LIBOR yield curve and the resulting implied forward rates are realized as a component of this shift in the curve. Assumptions include anticipated interest rates, relationships between interest rate indices and outstanding investments, liabilities and interest rate derivative positions.

No assurance can be made that the assumptions included in the Table presented herein will occur or that other events would not occur that would affect the outcomes of the analysis.  Furthermore, the results included in the Table assume the Partnership does not act to change its sensitivity to the movement in interest rates.

As the above information incorporates only those material positions or exposures that existed as of March 31, 2018, it does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date. The ultimate economic impact of these market risks will depend on the exposures that arise during the period, our risk mitigating strategies at that time and the overall business and economic environment.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the  Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership’s current disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that (i) information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Partnership’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that there were no changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the Partnership’s most recent fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
