EXPLANATORY NOTE

On August 16, 2007, the registrant discovered an isolated transposition/mathematical error in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commissions (the “SEC”) on August 14, 2007. The error involved a single account balance and occurred when carrying over June 30, 2006 numbers to a comparative column for the current period. The error relates only to the three month period ended June 30, 2006 (“Q2 2006”) as reflected in the registrant’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2007 (the 2007 10-Q) as compared to the Q2 2006 column. No error exists in the financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2007.

In the original Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, net income applicable to common shares was $143,000. In the 2007 10-Q, for Q2 2006, net income applicable to common shares was reflected as ($143,000). The result was that the 2007 10-Q, as originally filed, contained a $286,000 error in the Q2 2006 results as reflected. Because the error exists in the original filing, the registrant is amending its prior filing by this Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2007 to properly reflect the comparative number for net income applicable to common shares of $143,000 for Q2 2006.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is aware of the error and this amendment to correct same and such matters have been discussed with the registrant’s independent accountant.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

American Realty Investors, Inc. a Nevada corporation (“ARI”, “The Company”, “We”, “Our” or “Us”) was organized in 1999. In 2002, the Company, through mergers into wholly-owned subsidiaries acquired several entities. In 2003, the Company acquired 82.2% of the outstanding shares of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (“TCI”) a Nevada Corporation which is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol “TCI”. TCI’s operations are fully consolidated in our financial statements.

We are an externally advised real estate investment company and have no employees. We own a diverse portfolio of residential apartment communities, office buildings, hotels and other commercial properties. At June 30, 2007, the Company owned approximately 14,000 units in 77 residential apartment communities, 33 commercial properties comprising 5.3 million rentable square feet and ten hotels containing a total of 1,235 rooms. We own 10,900 acres of undeveloped land and have over 2,500 apartment units in 14 projects under construction. The Company currently owns operating properties or land in 20 states as well as in Poland and the U.S. Virgin Islands. American Realty Investors, Inc. is headquartered in Dallas, Texas and its common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “ARL”. Prime Income Asset Management, LLC (“Prime”) is the Company’s external advisor. Regis Property Management, LLC, an affiliate of Prime, manages the Company’s commercial properties. Regis Hotel I, LLC, another Prime affiliate, manages the Company’s hotel investments. ARI engages various third-party companies to lease and manage its apartment properties. In addition, we have a 20% interest in Milano Restaurants International Corporation.

The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited; however, the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statement for these interim periods have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year. The year end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosure required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.

Newly issued accounting standards. In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN No. 48”). FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN No. 48 also provides guidance on description, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN No. 48 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. FIN No. 48, which was adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2007, did not have a material impact on the Company’s cash flows, results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 to have a material impact on the Company’s cash flows, results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses shall be reported on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating and assessing the impact of this statement.

NOTE 9. OPERATING SEGMENTS

Significant differences among the accounting policies of the operating segments as compared to the Consolidated Financial Statements principally involve the calculation and allocation of administrative and other expenses. Management evaluates the performance of each of the operating segments and allocates resources to them based on their net operating income and cash flow. Excluded from operating segment assets are assets of $295.7 million in 2007 and $221.2 million in 2006. There are no intersegment revenues and expenses, and ARI conducted all of its business within the United States, with the exception of Hotel Akademia (Poland), which began operations in 2002.

Presented below are ARI’s reportable segments’ operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, and segment assets at June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Partnership Obligations. ARI is the limited partner in ten partnerships that are currently constructing residential properties. As permitted in the respective partnership agreements, ARI presently intends to purchase the interests of the general and any other limited partners in these partnerships subsequent to the final completion of these construction projects. The amounts paid to buyout the non-affiliated partners are limited to development fees earned by the non-affiliated partners and are set forth in the respective partnership agreements. The total amount of the expected buyouts as of June 30, 2007 is approximately $3.0 million.

Litigation. ARI is involved in various lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these lawsuits will not have a material impact on ARI’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Events occurring after the date of these financial statements are included within each note, as appropriate.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. This Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, principally, but not only, under the captions “Business,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” We caution investors that any forward-looking statements in this report, or which management may make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on management’s beliefs and on assumptions made by and information currently available to, management. When used, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “result” and similar expressions which do not relate solely to historical matters are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance, which may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors, that are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. We caution you that, while forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs when we make them, they are not guarantees of future performance and are impacted by actual events when they occur after we make such statements. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.

Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:

• general risks affecting the real estate industry (including, without limitation, the inability to enter into or renew leases, dependence on tenants’ financial condition and competition from other developers, owners and operators of real estate);

• risks associated with the availability and terms of financing and the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments;

• failure to manage effectively our growth and expansion into new markets or to integrate acquisitions successfully;

• risks and uncertainties affecting property development and construction (including, without limitation, construction delays, cost overruns, inability to obtain necessary permits and public opposition to such activities);

• risks associated with downturns in the national and local economies, increases in interest rates and volatility in the securities markets;

• costs of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other similar laws and regulations;

• potential liability for uninsured losses and environmental contamination;

• risks associated with our dependence on key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed; and

• the other risk factors identified in this Form 10-K, including those described under the caption “Risk Factors.”

The risks included here are not exhaustive. Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements, include among others, the factors listed and described at Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which investors should review. There have been no changes from the risk factors previously described in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 (“the Form 10-K”).

Other sections of this report may also include suggested factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not

19

possible for management to predict all such matters; nor can we assess the impact of all such matters on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as prediction of actual results. Investors should also refer to our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for future periods and to other materials we may furnish to the public from time to time through Forms 8-K or otherwise as we file them with the SEC.

Overview

ARI was organized in 1999. In August 2000, ARI acquired American Realty Trust, Inc. (“ART”) and National Realty, L.P. (“NRLP”). ART was the successor to a business trust organized in 1961 to provide investors with a professionally managed, diversified portfolio of real estate and mortgage loan investments selected to provide opportunities for capital appreciation as well as current income. The business trust merged into ART in 1987. ART owns a portfolio of real estate and mortgage loan investments. NRLP was organized in 1987 and subsequently acquired all of the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of 35 public and private limited partnerships. NRLP also owned a portfolio of real estate and mortgage loan investments.

At June 30, 2007, ARI subsidiaries owned approximately 82.2% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“TCI”), which has its common stock listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”). The ownership of the TCI shares was achieved through a series of transactions, including a cash tender offer completed March 19, 2003, an exchange by certain ARI subsidiaries of securities with Basic Capital Management, Inc. (“BCM”) and a sale of a participating interest in a line of credit receivable from One Realco Corporation (“One Realco”) to BCM, as well as certain open market purchases of TCI shares in December 2003. ARI has consolidated TCI’s accounts and operations since March 31, 2003. At June 30, 2007, TCI owned approximately 24.8% of the outstanding common stock of Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc., (“IORI”), a public company whose shares are listed and traded on the American Stock Exchange.

ARI is an externally advised and managed real estate investment company that owns a diverse portfolio of income-producing properties and land held for development. The Company’s portfolio of income-producing properties includes residential apartment communities, office buildings, hotels, a trade mart located in Denver, Colorado and other commercial properties. ARI’s investment strategy includes acquiring existing income-producing properties as well as developing new properties on land already owned or acquired for a specific development project. ARI acquires land primarily in in-fill locations or high-growth suburban markets. ARI is an active buyer and seller and during 2007 acquired over $123.0 million and sold over $60.4 million of land and income-producing properties. As of June 30, 2007, the Company owned approximately 14,000 units in 77 residential apartment communities, 33 commercial properties comprising almost 5.3 million rentable square feet and ten hotels containing a total of 1,235 rooms. In addition, at June 30, 2007, ARI owned almost 10,900 acres of land held for development and had over 2,500 apartment units in 14 projects under construction. The Company currently owns income-producing properties and land in 20 states as well as in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Wroclaw, Poland. ARI finances its acquisitions primarily through operating cash flow, proceeds from the sale of land and income-producing properties and debt financing primarily in the form of property-specific first-lien mortgage loans from commercial banks and institutional lenders. ARI finances its development projects principally with short-term, variable interest rate construction loans that are refinanced with long-term, fixed rate amortizing mortgages when the development project is completed and occupancy has been stabilized. The Company will, from time to time, also enter into partnerships with various investors to acquire income-producing properties or land and to sell interests in certain of its wholly-owned properties. When the Company sells assets, it may carry a portion of the sales price generally in the form of a short-term, interest bearing seller-financed note receivable. The Company generates operating revenues primarily by leasing apartment units to residents; leasing office, retail and industrial space to commercial tenants; and renting hotel rooms to guests. ARI is advised by Prime under a contractual arrangement that is reviewed annually by ARI’s Board of Directors. ARI’s commercial properties are managed by Regis Commercial while the Company’s hotels are managed by Regis Hotel. ARI currently contracts with five third-party companies to manage the Company’s apartment communities. Approximately 62% of ARI’s common stock is owned by BCM; an additional 13% is owned by Prime and TCI owns approximately seven percent of the outstanding common shares of ARI. Other affiliated companies own approximately two percent of ARI’s outstanding common shares. ARI is a “C Corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes and files an annual consolidated income tax return with TCI.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied resulting in a different presentation of our financial statements. From time to time, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. In the event estimates or assumptions prove to be different from actual results, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current information. Below is a discussion of accounting policies that we consider critical in that they may require complex judgment in their application or require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.

Real Estate

Upon acquisitions of real estate, ARI assesses the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets, including land, buildings, tenant improvements, “above-market” and “below-market” leases, origination costs, acquired in-place leases, other identified

21

intangible assets and assumed liabilities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, “Business Combinations” and allocates the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including land at appraised value and buildings at replacement cost.

We assess and consider fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and/or capitalization rates, as well as available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant. We also consider an allocation of purchase price of other acquired intangibles, including acquired in-place leases that may have a customer relationship intangible value, including (but not limited to) the nature and extent of the existing relationship with the tenants, the tenants’ credit quality and expectations of lease renewals. Based on our acquisitions to date, our allocation to customer relationship intangible assets has been immaterial.

We record acquired “above-market” and “below-market” leases at their fair values (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) equal to the difference between (1) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (2) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.

Real estate is stated at depreciated cost. The cost of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price of property, legal fees and other acquisition costs. Costs directly related to the development of properties are capitalized. Capitalized development costs include interest, property taxes, insurance and other project costs incurred during the period of development.

Management reviews its long-lived assets used in operations for impairment when there is an event or change in circumstances that indicates an impairment in value. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of its assets is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. If such impairment is present, an impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results in future periods.

SFAS No. 144 requires that qualifying assets and liabilities and the results of operations that have been sold, or otherwise qualify as “held for sale,” be presented as discontinued operations in all periods presented if the property operations are expected to be eliminated and the Company will not have significant continuing involvement following the sale. The components of the property’s net income that is reflected as discontinued operations include the net gain or loss upon the disposition of the property held for sale, operating results, depreciation and interest expense (if the property is subject to a secured loan). We generally consider assets to be “held for sale” when the transaction has been approved by our Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, and there are no known significant contingencies relating to the sale, such that the property sale within one year is considered probable. Following the classification of a property as “held for sale,” no further depreciation is recorded on the assets.

A variety of costs are incurred in the acquisition, development and leasing of properties. After determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that is benefited. Determination of when a development project is substantially complete and capitalization must cease involves a degree of judgement. Our capitalization policy on development properties is guided by SFAS No. 34 “Capitalization of Interest Cost” and SFAS No. 67 “Accounting for Costs and the Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Properties.” The costs of land and buildings under development include specifically identifiable costs. The capitalized costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs, real estate taxes, salaries and related costs and other costs incurred during the period of development. We consider a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the receipt of certificates of occupancy, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity. We cease capitalization on the portion (1) substantially completed and (2) occupied or held available for occupancy and we capitalize only those costs associated with the portion under construction.

Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures

Except for ownership interests in variable interest entities, ARI accounts for our investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures under the equity method of accounting because the Company exercises significant influence over, but does not control, these entities. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions. Any difference between the carrying amount of these investments on the Company’s balance sheet and the underlying equity in net assets is amortized as an adjustment to equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate ventures over the life of the related asset. Under the equity method of accounting, ARI’s net equity is reflected within the Consolidated Balance Sheets and our share of net income or loss from the joint ventures is included within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The joint venture agreements may designate different percentage allocations among investors for profits and losses; however, ARI’s recognition of joint venture income or loss generally follows the joint venture’s distribution priorities, which may change upon the achievement of certain investment return thresholds. For ownership interests in variable interest entities, the Company consolidates those in which we are the primary beneficiary.

22

Recognition of Rental Income

Rental income for commercial property leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms. In accordance with SFAS 141, we recognize rental revenue of acquired in-place “above-market” and “below-market” leases at their fair values over the terms of the respective leases. On our Consolidated Balance Sheets we include as a receivable, the excess of rental income recognized over rental payments actually received pursuant to the terms of the individual commercial lease agreements.

Reimbursements of operating costs, as allowed under most of our commercial tenant leases, consist of amounts due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs, and are recognized as revenue in the period in which the recoverable expenses are incurred. We record these reimbursements on a “gross” basis, since we generally are the primary obligor with respect to purchasing goods and services from third-party suppliers, have discretion in selecting the supplier and have the credit risk with respect to paying the supplier.

Rental income for residential property leases is recorded when due from residents and is recognized monthly as earned, which is not materially different than on a straight-line basis as lease terms are generally for periods of one year or less.

For hotel properties, revenues for room sales and guest services are recognized as rooms are occupied and as services are rendered.

An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded for all past due rents and operating expense reimbursements considered to be uncollectible.

Revenue Recognition on the Sale of Real Estate

Sales of real estate are recognized when and to the extent permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate” (“SFAS No. 66”), as amended by SFAS No. 144. Until the requirements of SFAS No. 66 for full profit recognition have been met, transactions are accounted for using the deposit, installment, cost recovery or financing method, whichever is appropriate. When ARI provides seller financing, gain is not recognized at the time of sale unless the buyer’s initial investment and continuing investment are deemed to be adequate as determined by SFAS 66 guidelines.

Non-performing Notes Receivable

ARI considers a note receivable to be non-performing when the maturity date has passed without principal repayment and the borrower is not making interest payments. Any new note receivable that results from a modification or extension of a note considered non-performing will also be considered non-performing, without regard to the borrower’s adherence to payment terms.

Interest Recognition on Notes Receivable

Interest income is not recognized on notes receivable that have been delinquent for 60 days or more. In addition, accrued but unpaid interest income is only recognized to the extent that the net realizable value of the underlying collateral exceeds the carrying value of the receivable.

Allowance for Estimated Losses

A valuation allowance is provided for estimated losses on notes receivable considered to be impaired. Impairment is considered to exist when it is probable that all amounts due under the terms of the note will not be collected. Valuation allowances are provided for estimated losses on notes receivable to the extent that the investment in the note exceeds management’s estimate of fair value of the collateral securing such note.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of ARI’s notes receivable, marketable equity securities and notes payable. For performing notes receivable, the fair value was estimated by discounting future cash flows using current interest rates for similar loans. For non-performing notes receivable, the estimated fair value of ARI’s interest in the collateral property was used. For marketable equity securities, fair value was based on the year-end closing market price of each security. For notes payable, the fair value was estimated using current rates for mortgages with similar terms and maturities

Results of Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2007

ARI had a net loss of $23.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, including a loss from discontinued operations of $2.2 million, as compared to a net income of $143,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006, including income from discontinuing operations of $2.9 million and a gain on sale of land of $10.7 million. Fluctuations in this and other components of revenues and expense between the three month period ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 are discussed below.

23

Rents increased to $52.1 million in 2007 as compared to $43.1 million in 2006 due to additional rental income from the completion of new apartment construction projects, increased occupancy from commercial and hotel properties and various market rate increases in apartment complexes.

Property operating expenses increased to $33.7 million in 2007 as compared to $30.2 million in 2006. This increase is due to the completion of new apartment construction projects and acquisition of new properties.

Depreciation and amortization increased to $7.6 million in 2007 as compared to $6.2 million in 2006. This increase is mainly due to the completion of new construction projects in the current period.

General and administrative expense increased to $3.7 million in 2007 as compared to $1.9 million in 2006. This increase is due to a $1.7 million legal settlement received in prior year.

Other income increased to $1.7 million in 2007 as compared to $405,000 in 2006. This increase is due to an increase in investment income from Milano restaurant.

Mortgage and loan interest expense increased to $25.0 million in 2007 as compared to $19.2 million in 2006. This increase is due to the increase in mortgages payable.

There were no litigation proceeds in 2007 as compared to $1.4 million received in 2006.

No gain on land sales was recorded in 2007 as compared to $10.7 million in 2006. The decrease was due to no land being sold in 2007, that resulted in a gain on sale.

Income from discontinued operations decreased to a net loss of $2.2 million in 2007 as compared to a net income of $2.9 million in 2006. This decrease is due to discontinued operations including 16 properties in 2006 as compared to 11 properties in 2007, and eight of the properties in 2007 having a net loss.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007

ARI had a net loss of $32.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, including income from discontinued operations of $78,000 and gain on land sales of $4.9 million, as compared to a net loss of $8.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, including income from discontinuing operations of $2.5 million and a gain on sale of land of $13.4 million. Fluctuations in this and other components of revenues and expense between the six month period ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 are discussed below.

Rents increased to $103.2 million in 2007 as compared to $86.9 million in 2006. This increase is due to additional rental income from the completion of new apartment construction projects and the acquisition of commercial properties and the increase in hotel revenues due to increased occupancies.

Property operating expenses increased to $66.2 million in 2007 as compared to $58.1 million in 2006. This increase is due to the completion of new apartment construction projects and acquisition of commercial properties.

Depreciation and amortization increased to $14.4 million in 2007 as compared to $12.3 million in 2006. This increase is mainly due to the completion of new construction projects in the current period.

General and administrative expenses increased to $8.5 million in 2007 as compared to $4.8 million in 2006. This increase is due to due to prior year amount including $1.7 million in litigation settlement and current year increase in legal expense of $700,000, increase in appraisal and consulting fees of $500,000 and reclassification of transactions of $500,000.

Other income increased to $4.3 million in 2007 as compared to $2.0 million in 2006. This increase is due to income from investment in Milano restaurant.

Mortgage and loan interest increased to $50.4 million in 2007 as compared to $37.2 million in 2006. This increase is due to the increase in notes payable to $1.3 billion in 2007 as compared to 840.2 million in 2006.

Income from litigation settlements decreased to $24,000 in 2007 as compared to $1.8 million in 2006. This decrease is due to non-recurring settlements in the prior period.

Gain on land sales decreased to $4.9 million in 2007 as compared to $13.4 million in 2006. The 2007 gain is comprised of the sale of 15 acres of McKinney Ranch land in Texas, 4.6 acres of Grapevine land in Texas and 22.4 acres of Metro Center land in Tennessee.

Net income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 from discontinued operations relates to properties ARI sold or intends to sell in 2007 as well as properties ARI sold during 2007 and 2006 or intends to sell in 2007. The following table summarizes revenue and expense information for the properties sold and held for sale.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2007 totaled $5.5 million, compared with $7.0 million at December 31, 2006. ARI’s principal sources of cash have been and will continue to property operations, proceeds from property sales, and the collection of mortgage notes receivable, borrowings and, to a lesser extent, distributions from partnerships. Management anticipates that ARI’s cash at June 30, 2007, along with cash that will be generated in from property operations, may not be sufficient to meet all of ARI’s cash requirements. Management intends to selectively sell land and income producing assets, refinance or extend real estate debt and seek additional borrowings secured primarily by real estate to meet its liquidity requirements. Historically, management has been successful at extending its current maturity obligations. Management also anticipates funding ongoing real estate construction projects and the acquisition of new real estate from cash generated by property sales, debt refinancings or extensions, and additional borrowings.

Net cash used by operating activities was $90.2 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2007 as compared to $13.1 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2006. Cash flow from operations is largely comprised of rental income less operating expenses, general and administrative expenses and interest expense. Net cash used by operating activities increased $77.1 million due primarily to increases in other assets of $36.2 million, increases in notes receivable of $22.9 million, increases in prepaid expenses of $2.6 million and decreases in notes payable of $15.8 million and increased interest expense of $13.2 million, offset by increases in other liabilities of $11.9 million and increased operating income of $1.7 million.

ARI expects that funds from existing cash resources, aggressive sales of land and selected income producing property sales, refinancing of real estate, and borrowings against its real estate will be sufficient to meet the cash requirements associated with ARI’s current and anticipated level of operations, maturing debt obligations and existing commitments. To the extent that ARI’s liquidity permits or financing sources are available, ARI will make investments in real estate, primarily in improved and unimproved land, will continue making investments in real estate entities and marketable equity securities, and will develop and construct income-producing properties.

Net cash used in investing activities was $184.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to $22.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Net cash used in investing activities increased $162.5 million due to an increase in investments in real estate (including investments in income-producing properties, land held for development, residential and other development projects) of $186.2 million, decreased collections of notes receivable of $5.9 million and lower proceeds from fewer land sales of $11.9 million, offset by higher proceeds from sales of income-producing properties of $41.5 million.

25

Net cash provided by financing activities was $275.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $46.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Cash provided by financing activities increased $228.4 million due primarily to proceeds from additional borrowings of $275.2 million (net of deferred financing costs), advances from affiliates of $17.8 million and a decrease in restricted cash of $1.9 million, offset by loan payoffs related to property sales and refinancings of $64.6 million and increased preferred dividends of $1.9 million.

Net cash used in discontinued operations was $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $9.0 million for the same period in 2006. The $7.1 million decline was due principally to a increase in cash provided by operations from properties actually sold or held for sale of $11.4 million offset by reduced proceeds from property sales of $4.3 million.

Equity Investments. Since 1988, ARI has from time to time purchased shares of IORI and TCI, both of which had the same advisor as ARI until June 2003. The Company may purchase additional equity securities of IORI and TCI through open market and negotiated transactions to the extent ARI’s liquidity permits.

Equity securities of TCI held by ARI (and of IORI held by TCI) may be deemed “restricted securities” under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”). Accordingly, ARI may be unable to sell such equity securities other than in a registered public offering or pursuant to an exemption under the Securities Act for a one-year period after they are acquired. Such restrictions may reduce ARI’s ability to realize the full fair market value of such investments if ARI attempted to dispose of such securities in a short period of time.

Management reviews the carrying values of ARI’s properties and mortgage notes receivable at least annually and whenever events or a change in circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Impairment is considered to exist if, in the case of a property, the future cash flow from the property (undiscounted and without interest) is less than the carrying amount of the property. For notes receivable, impairment is considered to exist if it is probable that all amounts due under the terms of the note will not be collected. If impairment is found to exist, a provision for loss is recorded by a charge against earnings to the extent that the investment in the note exceeds management’s estimate of the fair value of the collateral securing such note. The mortgage note receivable review includes an evaluation of the collateral property securing each note. The property review generally includes: (1) selective property inspections, (2) a review of the property’s current rents compared to market rents, (3) a review of the property’s expenses, (4) a review of maintenance requirements, (5) a review of the property’s cash flow, (6) discussions with the manager of the property, and (7) a review of properties in the surrounding area.

Environmental Matters

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, ARI may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances (including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property) where property-level managers have arranged for the removal, disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, certain environmental laws impose liability for release of asbestos-containing materials into the air and third parties may seek recovery for personal injury associated with such materials.

Management is not aware of any environmental liability relating to the above matters that would have a material adverse effect on ARI’s business, assets or results of operations.

Inflation

The effects of inflation on ARI’s operations are not quantifiable. Revenues from property operations tend to fluctuate proportionately with inflationary increases and decreases in housing costs. Fluctuations in the rate of inflation also affect the sales values of properties and the ultimate gains to be realized from property sales. To the extent that inflation affects interest rates, earnings from short-term investments and the cost of new financings as well as the cost of variable interest rate debt will be affected.

Tax Matters

Financial statement income varies from taxable income principally due to the accounting for income and losses of investees, gains and losses from asset sales, depreciation on owned properties, amortization of discounts on notes receivable and payable and the difference in the allowance for estimated losses. ARI had a loss for federal income tax purposes in the first six months of 2007 and a loss in the first six months of 2006, after the use of net operating loss carry forwards; therefore, it recorded no provision for income taxes.

At June 30, 2007, ARI had a net deferred tax asset of $124.9 million due to tax deductions available to it in future years. However, as management cannot determine that it is more likely than not that ARI will realize the benefit of the deferred tax assets, a 100% valuation allowance has been established.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

At June 30, 2007, ARI’s exposure to a change in interest rates on its debt is as follows (dollars in thousands except per share):

	Balance		Weighted Average Interest Rate		Effect of 1% Increase In Base Rates
Notes payable:
Variable rate	$	412,832	9.77	%	$	4,128
Total decrease in ARI’s annual net income						4,128
Per share					$	.41
