PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

Alexander's, Inc. is a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), incorporated in Delaware, engaged in leasing, managing, developing and redeveloping its properties. All references to "we", "us", "our", "Company" and "Alexander's" refer to Alexander's Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Alexander's activities are conducted through its manager, Vornado Realty Trust ("Vornado").

Alexander's has six properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area consisting of:

Operating properties

(i): the 731 Lexington Avenue property, a 1.1 million square foot multi-use building located on Lexington Avenue and 59^th Street in Manhattan, New York. 731 Lexington Avenue contains 885,000 net rentable square feet of office space and 174,000 net rentable square feet of retail space. 731 Lexington Avenue also contains approximately 248,000 net saleable square feet (which is not included in the 1.1 million square feet above) of residential space consisting of 105 condominium units (though a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS")).
: The Company has leased all of the office space of which 697,000 square feet is leased to Bloomberg L.P., and 176,000 square feet is leased to Citibank N.A. In addition, the Company has leased 169,000 square feet of retail space to, among others, The Home Depot, Hennes & Mauritz, The Container Store, Wachovia Bank and Bank of America. As of December 31, 2005, 100 of the 105 residential condominium units were sold and closed;
(ii): the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center, located on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, New York, which contains 1,098,000 square feet and is comprised of a two-level mall containing 470,000 square feet, a 289,000 square foot department store leased to Sears and another anchor department store owned and operated as a Macy's by Federated Department Stores, Inc.;
(iii): the Rego Park I property, located on Queens Boulevard and 63^rd Road in Queens, New York, which contains a 351,000 square foot building that is 100% leased to Sears, Circuit City, Bed Bath & Beyond, Marshalls and Old Navy;
(iv): the Paramus property, which consists of 30.3 acres of land located at the intersection of Routes 4 and 17 in Paramus, New Jersey, which is leased to IKEA Property, Inc;
(v): the Flushing property, located at Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street in Queens, New York, which contains a 177,000 square foot building that is currently vacant; and

Property to be developed

(vi): the Rego Park II property, which comprises one and one-half square blocks of vacant land adjacent to the Rego Park I property.

Significant Tenants

Bloomberg L.P. accounted for 34%, and 36% of the Company's consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Sears accounted for 11% and 18% of the Company's consolidated revenues in 2004 and 2003, respectively. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of revenues in any of the last three years.

Relationship with Vornado

Vornado owned 33.0% of the outstanding common stock of Alexander's as of December 31, 2005. Steven Roth is the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Managing General Partner of Interstate Properties ("Interstate"), a New Jersey general partnership, and the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Vornado. At December 31, 2005, Mr. Roth, Interstate and its other two general partners, David Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr. (who are also directors of the Company and trustees of Vornado) owned, in the aggregate, 27.7% of the outstanding common stock of Alexander's, and 9.2% of the outstanding common shares of beneficial interest of Vornado.

The Company is managed and its properties are leased and developed by Vornado pursuant to agreements with one-year terms, expiring in March of each year, which are automatically renewable. Vornado is a fully-integrated REIT with significant experience in managing, leasing, developing, and operating retail and office properties.

At December 31, 2005, the Company owed Vornado $32,804,000 for leasing fees and $1,520,000 for management, property management and cleaning fees.

Environmental Matters

In June 1997, the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center commissioned an Environmental Study and Contamination Assessment Site Investigation (the "Phase II Study") to evaluate and delineate environmental conditions disclosed in a Phase I study. The results of the Phase II Study indicated the presence of petroleum and bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate contamination in the soil and groundwater. The Company has delineated the contamination and has developed a remediation approach, which is ongoing. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation ("NYSDEC") has approved a portion of the remediation approach. The Company accrued $2,675,000 in previous years, of which $2,612,000 has been paid as of December 31, 2005, for its estimated obligation with respect to the cleanup of the site, which includes costs of (i) remedial investigation, (ii) feasibility studies, (iii) remedial design, (iv) remedial action and (v) professional fees. If NYSDEC insists on a more extensive remediation approach, the Company could incur additional obligations.

Competition

The Company operates in a highly competitive environment. All of its properties are located in the greater New York City metropolitan area. The Company competes with a large number of real estate property owners and developers. Principal factors of competition are the amount of rent charged, attractiveness of location and quality and breadth of services provided. The Company's success depends upon, among other factors, trends of national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants, the availability and cost of capital, interest rates, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations and legislation, population trends, zoning laws, and the ability of the Company to lease, sublease or sell its properties, at profitable levels. The Company's success is also subject to its ability to refinance existing debts as they come due and on acceptable terms.

Employees

The Company currently has 96 employees.

Executive Office

The Company's principal executive office is located at 210 Route 4 East, Paramus, New Jersey 07652 and its telephone number is (201) 587-8541.

Available Information

Copies of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to these reports, as well as Reports on Forms 3, 4 and 5 regarding officers, directors, and 10% beneficial owners of the Company, filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a), 15(d) or 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, are available free of charge through the Company's website (www.alx-inc.com) as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Company also has made available on its website, copies of the Company's (i) Audit Committee charter, (ii) Compensation Committee Charter, (iii) Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and (iv) Corporate Governance Guidelines. In the event of any changes to these items, revised copies will be made available on the website.

Vornado and Interstate filed, on April 11, 2000, the 26^th amendment to, a Form 13D with the SEC indicating that they, as a group own in excess of 51% of the common stock of the Company. This ownership level makes the Company a "controlled" company for the purposes of the New York Stock Exchange, Inc.'s Corporate Governance Standards (the "NYSE Rules"). This means that the Company is not required by the NYSE Rules, among other things, to have a majority of the members of its Board of Directors be independent under the NYSE Rules, to have all of its members of its Compensation Committee be independent under the NYSE Rules or to have a Nominating Committee. While the Company has voluntarily complied with the majority independence requirements, it is under no obligation to do so and this situation may change at anytime.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Set forth below are material factors that may adversely affect our business and operations.

Real Estate Investments' Value and Income Fluctuate Due to Various Factors.

The value of real estate fluctuates depending on conditions in the general economy and the real estate business. These conditions may also limit our revenues and available cash.

The factors that affect the value of our real estate include, among other things:

•: national, regional and local economic conditions;
•: local conditions such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in the area;
•: competition from other available space;
•: whether tenants and users such as customers and shoppers consider a property attractive;
•: the financial condition of our tenants, including the extent of tenant bankruptcies or defaults;
•: whether we are able to pass some or all of any increased operating costs through to tenants;
•: how well we manage our properties;
•: fluctuations in interest rates;
•: changes in real estate taxes and other expenses;
•: changes in market rental rates;
•: the timing and costs associated with property improvements and rentals;
•: changes in taxation or zoning laws;
•: government regulation;
•: Alexander's failure to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust;
•: availability of financing on acceptable terms or at all;
•: consequences of any armed conflict involving, or terrorist attacks against, the United States;
•: our ability to secure adequate insurance;
•: potential liability under environmental or other laws or regulations; and
•: general competitive factors.

The rents we receive and the occupancy levels at our properties may decline as a result of adverse changes in any of these factors. If our rental revenues decline, we generally would expect to have less cash available to pay our indebtedness and distribute to our stockholders. In addition, some of our major expenses, including mortgage payments, real estate taxes and maintenance costs, generally do not decline when the related rents decline.

We depend on leasing space to tenants on economically favorable terms and collecting rent from our tenants, who may not be able to pay.

Our financial results depend significantly on leasing space in our properties to tenants on economically favorable terms. In addition, because a substantial majority of our income comes from renting of real property, our income, funds available to pay indebtedness and funds available for distribution to our stockholders will decrease if a significant number of our tenants cannot pay their rent or if we are not able to maintain our level of occupancy on favorable terms. If a tenant does not pay its rent, we might not be able to enforce our rights as landlord without delays and might incur substantial legal and other costs.

Bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants may decrease our revenues, net income and available cash.

From time to time, some of our tenants, have declared bankruptcy, and other tenants may declare bankruptcy or become insolvent in the future. If a major tenant declares bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the rental property at which it leases space may have lower revenues and operational difficulties. In the case of our shopping centers, the bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant could cause us to have difficulty leasing the remainder of the affected property. Our leases generally do not contain restrictions designed to ensure the creditworthiness of our tenants. As a result, the bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant could result in a lower level of net income and funds available for the payment of our indebtedness or distribution to our stockholders.

Some of the our tenants represent a significant portion of our revenues. Loss of these tenant relationships or deterioration in the tenants' credit quality could adversely affect results.

Bloomberg L.P. accounted for 34% and 36% of our consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Sears accounted for 11% of our consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004. If we fail to maintain a relationship with any of our significant tenants or fail to perform our obligations under agreements with these tenants, or if any of these tenants fails or becomes unable to perform its obligations under the agreements, we expect that any one or more of these events would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Real estate is a competitive business.

We operate in a highly competitive environment. All of our properties are located in the greater New York City metropolitan area. We compete with a large number of real estate property owners and developers, some of which may be willing to accept lower returns on their investments. Principal factors of competition are rents charged, attractiveness of location, the quality of the property and breadth and quality of services provided. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation and population trends.

We may incur costs to comply with environmental laws.

Our operations and properties are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations concerning the protection of the environment including air and water quality, hazardous or toxic substances and health and safety. Under some environmental laws, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances released at a property. The owner or operator may also be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage or personal injuries and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by those parties because of the contamination. These laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of the release of the substances or caused the release. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contamination may impair our ability to sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. Other laws and regulations govern indoor and outdoor air quality including those that can require the abatement or removal of asbestos-containing materials in the event of damage, demolition, renovation or remodeling and also govern emissions of and exposure to asbestos fibers in the air. The maintenance and removal of lead paint and certain electrical equipment containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and underground storage tanks are also regulated by federal and state laws. We are also subject to risks associated with human exposure to chemical or biological contaminants such as molds, pollens, viruses and bacteria which, above certain levels, can be alleged to be connected to allergic or other health effects and symptoms in susceptible individuals. We could incur fines for environmental compliance and be held liable for the costs of remedial action with respect to the foregoing regulated substances or tanks or related claims arising out of environmental contamination or human exposure at or from our properties.

Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. Except as referenced below, the environmental assessments did not, as of this date, reveal any environmental condition material to our business. However, identification of new compliance concerns or undiscovered areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, discovery of additional sites, human exposure to the contamination or changes in cleanup or compliance requirements could result in significant costs to us.

In June 1997, the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center commissioned the Phase II Study to evaluate and delineate environmental conditions disclosed in a Phase I study. The results of the Phase II study indicated the presence of petroleum and bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate contamination in the soil and groundwater. We have delineated the contamination and have developed a remediation approach, which is ongoing. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation ("NYSDEC") has approved a portion of the remediation approach. We accrued $2,675,000 in previous years, of which $2,612,000 has been paid as of December 31, 2005, for our estimated obligation with respect to the cleanup of the site, and which includes costs of (i) remedial investigation, (ii) feasibility studies, (iii) remedial design, (iv) remedial action and (v) professional fees. If NYSDEC insists on a more extensive remediation approach, we could incur additional obligations. We can make no assurance that we will not incur additional environmental costs with respect to this property.

Some of our potential losses may not be covered by insurance.

We carry comprehensive liability and all risk property insurance ((i) fire, (ii) flood, (iii) extended coverage, (iv) "acts of terrorism" as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Extension Act of 2005 which expires in 2007, and (v) rental loss insurance) with respect to our assets.

On June 30, 2005, we renewed our annual all risk policy with limits of (i) $960,000,000 per occurrence including certified terrorist acts and $350,000,000 for non-certified terrorist acts for its 731 Lexington Avenue property, and (ii) $510,000,000 per occurrence including certified terrorist acts and $350,000,000 for non-certified terrorist acts for the remaining properties. To the extent that we incur losses in excess of our insurance coverage, these losses would be borne by us and could be material.

Our debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties (which are generally non-recourse to Alexander's), contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage under these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, or if the Terrorism Risk Insurance Extension Act of 2005 is not extended past 2007, it could adversely affect our ability to finance and/or refinance our properties.

Compliance or failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act or other safety regulations and requirements could result in substantial costs.

The Americans with Disabilities Act generally requires that public buildings, including our properties, be made accessible to disabled persons. Noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines by the federal government or the award of damages to private litigants. If, under the Americans with Disabilities Act, we are required to make substantial alterations and capital expenditures in one or more of our properties, including the removal of access barriers, it could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, as well as the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders.

Our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as state and local fire and life safety requirements. If we fail to comply with these requirements, we could incur fines or private damage awards. We do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether compliance with future requirements will require significant unanticipated expenditures that will affect our cash flow and results of operations.

Our Investments Are Concentrated in the Greater New York City Metropolitan Area. Circumstances Affecting These Areas Generally Could Adversely Affect Our Business.

All of our properties are in the greater New York City metropolitan area and are affected by the economic cycles and risks inherent in that area.

During the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, all of our revenues came from properties located in the greater New York City metropolitan area. Like other real estate markets, the real estate market in this area has experienced economic downturns in the past, and we cannot predict how economic conditions will impact this market in both the short and long term. Declines in the economy or a decline in the real estate market in this area could hurt the value of our properties and our financial performance. The factors affecting economic conditions in this region include:

•: business layoffs or downsizing;
•: industry slowdowns;
•: relocations of businesses;
•: changing demographics;
•: increased telecommuting and use of alternative work places;
•: financial performance and productivity of the publishing, advertising, financial, technology, retail, insurance and real estate industries;
•: infrastructure quality; and
•: any oversupply of, or reduced demand for, real estate.

It is impossible for us to assess the future effects of the current uncertain trends in the economic and investment climates of the greater New York City metropolitan region, and more generally of the United States, on the real estate market in this area. If these conditions persist, or if there is any local, national or global economic downturn, our businesses and future profitability may be adversely affected.

We are subject to risks that affect the general retail environment.

A substantial proportion of our properties are in the retail shopping center real estate market. This means that we are subject to factors that affect the retail environment generally, including the level of consumer spending and consumer confidence, the threat of terrorism and increasing competition from discount retailers, outlet malls, retail websites and catalog companies. These factors could adversely affect the financial condition of our retail tenants and the willingness of retailers to lease space in our shopping centers.

Terrorist attacks, such as those of September 11, 2001 in New York City, may adversely affect the value of our properties and our ability to generate cash flow.

All of our properties are located in the greater New York City metropolitan area. In the aftermath of any terrorist attacks, tenants in this area may choose to relocate their businesses to less populated, lower-profile areas of the United States that are not as likely to be targets of future terrorist activity and fewer customers may choose to patronize businesses in this area. This would trigger a decrease in the demand for space in these markets, which could increase vacancies in our properties and force us to lease our properties on less favorable terms. As a result, the value of our properties and the level of our revenues could decline materially.

We May Acquire or Sell Additional Assets or Develop Additional Properties. Our Failure or Inability to Consummate These Transactions or Manage the Results of These Transactions Could Adversely Affect Our Operations and Financial Results.

We may acquire or develop properties and this may create risks.

We may acquire or develop properties when we believe that an acquisition or development is consistent with our business strategies, although currently our stated business strategy is not to engage in acquisitions. We may not, however, succeed in consummating desired acquisitions or in completing developments on time or within budget. In addition, we may face competition in pursuing acquisition or development opportunities that could increase our costs. When we do pursue a project or acquisition, we may not succeed in leasing newly developed or acquired properties at rents sufficient to cover their costs of acquisition or development and operations. Difficulties in integrating acquisitions may prove costly or time-consuming and could divert management's attention. Acquisitions or developments in new markets or industries where we do not have the same level of market knowledge may result in poorer than anticipated performance. We may abandon acquisition or development opportunities that we have begun pursuing and consequently fail to recover expenses already incurred and have devoted management time to a matter not consummated.

It may be difficult to buy and sell real estate quickly.

Real estate investments are relatively difficult to buy and sell quickly. Consequently, we may have limited ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions.

Our Organizational and Financial Structure Gives Rise to Operational and Financial Risks.

Alexander's depends on dividends and distributions from its direct and indirect subsidiaries. The creditors of these subsidiaries are entitled to amounts payable to them by the subsidiaries before the subsidiaries may pay any dividends or distributions to Alexander's, Inc.

Substantially all of Alexander's properties and assets are held through subsidiaries. Alexander's depends on cash distributions and dividends from its subsidiaries for substantially all of its cash flow. The creditors of each of its direct and indirect subsidiaries are entitled to payment of that subsidiary's obligations to them, when due and payable, before that subsidiary may make distributions or dividends to Alexander's. Thus, Alexander's ability to pay its indebtedness and to pay dividends, if any, to its security holders depends on its subsidiaries' ability to first satisfy their obligations to their creditors.

In addition, Alexander's participation in any distribution of the assets of any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries upon the liquidation, reorganization or insolvency of the subsidiary, is only after the claims of the creditors, including trade creditors, and preferred security holders, if any, of the applicable direct or indirect subsidiaries are satisfied.

Our existing financing documents contain covenants and restrictions that may restrict our operational and financial flexibility and restrict or prohibit our ability to make payments upon securities.

At December 31, 2005, substantially all of our properties were pledged to secure obligations under $1,079,465,000 of existing secured indebtedness. If we were to fail to perform our obligations under existing indebtedness or become insolvent or were liquidated, secured creditors would be entitled to payment in full from the proceeds of the sale of the pledged assets prior to any proceeds being paid to other creditors or to any holders of our securities. In such an event, it is possible that we would have insufficient assets remaining to make payments to a holder of our securities. In addition, the existing financing documents contain restrictive covenants which limit the ability to incur indebtedness and make prepayments of indebtedness. These covenants may significantly restrict our operational and financial flexibility and may restrict its ability to obtain additional financing or pursue other business activities that may be beneficial.

We have indebtedness, and this indebtedness, and its cost, may increase.

As of December 31, 2005, we had approximately $1,079,465,000 in total debt outstanding. Our ratio of total debt to total enterprise value was 62.2% at December 31, 2005. "Enterprise value" means the market equity value of our common stock, plus debt, less cash and cash equivalents at such date. In addition, we have significant debt service obligations. For the year ended December 31, 2005, our scheduled cash payments for principal and interest were $70,216,000. In the future, we may incur additional debt, and thus increase the ratio of total debt to total enterprise value. If our level of indebtedness increases there may be an increased risk of default that could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, in a rising interest rate environment, the cost of refinancing our existing debt and any new debt or market rate security or instrument may increase.

We have issued outstanding and exercisable stock appreciation rights. The exercise of these stock appreciation rights may impact our liquidity.

As of January 31, 2006, 850,000 stock appreciation rights ("SARs") were outstanding and exercisable at a weighted-average exercise price of $141.80. Since the SARs agreements require that they be settled in cash, the Company would have had to pay $89,295,000 if the holders of these SARs had exercised their SARs on January 31, 2006. Any change in the Company's stock price from the closing price of $246.85 at January 31, 2006 would increase or decrease the amount the Company would have to pay upon exercise.

Alexander's might fail to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT, and may be required to pay income taxes at corporate rates.

Although we believe that we will remain organized and will continue to operate so as to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we might fail to remain qualified. Qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes is governed by highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. Qualification as a REIT also depends on various facts and circumstances that are not entirely within our control. In addition, legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions might significantly change the tax laws with respect to the requirements for qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of qualification as a REIT.

In order to qualify and maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are required, among other conditions, to distribute as dividends to our stockholders, at least 90% of annual REIT taxable income. As of December 31, 2005, we had reported net operating loss carryovers ("NOLs") of $31,739,000, which generally would be available to offset the amount of REIT taxable income that we otherwise would be required to distribute. However, the NOLs reported on the tax returns are not binding on the Internal Revenue Service and are subject to adjustment as a result of future audits. In addition, under Section 382 of the Code, the ability to use our NOLs could be limited if, generally, there are significant changes in the ownership of our outstanding stock. Since our reorganization as a REIT commencing in 1995, we have not paid regular dividends and do not believe that we will be required to, and may not, pay regular dividends until the NOLs have been fully utilized.

We face possible adverse changes in tax laws.

From time to time changes in state and local tax laws or regulations are enacted, which may result in an increase in our tax liability. The shortfall in tax revenues for states and municipalities in recent years may lead to an increase in the frequency and size of such changes. If such changes occur, we may be required to pay additional taxes on our assets or income. These increased tax costs could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and the amount of cash available for payment of dividends.

Loss of our key personnel could harm our operations and adversely affect the value of our common stock.

We are dependent on the efforts of Steven Roth, our Chief Executive Officer, and Michael D. Fascitelli, our President. While we believe that we could find replacements for these key personnel, the loss of their services could harm our operations and adversely affect the value of our common stock.

Alexander's charter documents and applicable law may hinder any attempt to acquire us.

Provisions in Alexander's certificate of incorporation and by laws, as well as provisions of the Code and Delaware corporate law, may delay or prevent a change of control over the Company or a tender offer, even if such action might be beneficial to stockholders, and limit the stockholders' opportunity to receive a potential premium for their shares of common stock over then prevailing market prices.

Primarily to facilitate maintenance of its qualification as a REIT, Alexander's certificate of incorporation generally prohibits ownership, directly, indirectly or beneficially, by any single stockholder of more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of preferred stock of any class or 4.9% of outstanding common stock of any class. The Board of Directors may waive or modify these ownership limits with respect to one or more persons if it is satisfied that ownership in excess of these limits will not jeopardize Alexander's status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. In addition, the Board of Directors has, subject to certain conditions and limitations, exempted Vornado and certain of its affiliates from these ownership limitations. Shares owned in violation of these ownership limits will be subject to the loss of rights and other restrictions. These ownership limits may have the effect of inhibiting or impeding a change in control.

Alexander's Board of Directors is divided into three classes of directors. Directors of each class are chosen for three-year staggered terms. Staggered terms of directors may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control or management, even though changes in management or a change in control might be in the best interest of our stockholders.

In addition, Alexander's charter documents authorize the Board of Directors to:

•: cause Alexander's to issue additional authorized but unissued shares of common stock or preferred stock; and
•: set the preferences, rights and other terms of any classified or reclassified shares that Alexander's issues without any further action by our stockholders.

The Board of Directors could establish a series of preferred stock whose terms could delay, deter or prevent a change in control of Alexander's or other transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders, although the Board of Directors does not now intend to establish a series of preferred stock of this kind. Alexander's charter documents contain other provisions that may delay, deter or prevent a change in control of the Company or other transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders.

In addition, Vornado and Interstate Properties (the three general partners of which are both trustees of Vornado and Directors of Alexander's) together beneficially own approximately 60.5% of our outstanding shares of common stock. This degree of ownership may also reduce the possibility of a tender offer or an attempt to change control of the Company.

We may change our policies without obtaining the approval of our stockholders.

Our operating and financial policies, including our policies with respect to acquisitions of real estate or other assets, growth, operations, indebtedness, capitalization and dividends, are exclusively determined by our Board of Directors. Accordingly, our stockholders do not control these policies.

Our Ownership Structure and Related-Party Transactions May Give Rise to Conflicts of Interest.

Steven Roth, Vornado and Interstate may exercise substantial influence over us. They and some of our other directors and officers have interests or positions in other entities that may compete with us.

As of December 31, 2005, Interstate and its partners owned approximately 9.2% of the common shares of beneficial interest of Vornado, our manager, and approximately 27.7% of the outstanding common stock of Alexander's. Steven Roth, David Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr. are the partners of Interstate. Mr. Roth is the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees and Chief Executive Officer of Vornado and the Managing General Partner of Interstate. Mr. Wight and Mr. Mandelbaum are both trustees of Vornado and members of the Company's Board of Directors. In addition, Vornado manages and leases the real estate assets of Interstate.

As of December 31, 2005, Vornado owned 33% of our outstanding common stock, in addition to that owned by Interstate and its partners. In addition to the relationships described in the immediately preceding paragraph, Michael D. Fascitelli, the President and a trustee of Vornado, is our President and a member of our Board of Directors. Richard West is a trustee of Vornado and a member of our Board of Directors. In addition, Joseph Macnow, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, holds the same positions with Vornado.

Because of their overlapping interests, Mr. Roth, Interstate and the other individuals noted in the preceding paragraphs may have substantial influence over both Vornado and Alexander's, and on the outcome of any matters submitted to Vornado shareholders or Alexander's stockholders for approval. In addition, certain decisions concerning our operations or financial structure may present conflicts of interest among Messrs. Roth, Mandelbaum and Wight and Interstate and other security holders. Mr. Roth and Interstate may, in the future, engage in a wide variety of activities in the real estate business which may result in conflicts of interest with respect to matters affecting Vornado or us, such as which of these entities or persons, if any, may take advantage of potential business opportunities, the business focus of these entities, the types of properties and geographic locations in which these entities make investments, potential competition between business activities conducted, or sought to be conducted, by Vornado or us, competition for properties and tenants, possible corporate transactions such as acquisitions, and other strategic decisions affecting the future of these entities.

There may be conflicts of interest between Vornado, its affiliates and us.

Vornado manages, develops and leases our properties under agreements that have one-year terms expiring in March of each year, which are automatically renewable. Because we and Vornado share common senior management and because five of the trustees of Vornado also constitute the majority of our directors, the terms of the foregoing agreements and any future agreements between us and Vornado and its affiliates may not be comparable to those we could have negotiated with an unaffiliated third party.

For a description of Interstate's ownership of Vornado and Alexander's, see "Steven Roth, Vornado and Interstate may exercise substantial influence over us. They and some of our other directors and officers have interests or positions in other entities that may compete with us." above.

The Number of Shares of Alexander's Common Stock and the Market for Those Shares Give Rise to Various Risks.

Alexander's has available for issuance shares of its common stock and outstanding and exercisable options to purchase its common stock. The issuance of this stock or the exercise of these options could decrease the market price of the shares of common stock currently outstanding.

As of December 31, 2005, Alexander's had authorized but unissued 4,826,550 shares of its common stock, par value of $1.00 per share and 3,000,000 shares of its preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share. In addition, as of December 31, 2005, 81,850 options were outstanding and exercisable at a weighted-average exercise price of $70.38 and as of January 31, 2006, 850,000 SARs were outstanding and exercisable at a weighted-average exercise price of $141.80. Additionally, 895,000 shares are available for future grant under the terms of our Omnibus Stock Plan that may be in the form of options, restricted stock, SARs or other equity-based interests. Since the SARs agreements require that they be settled in cash, the number of shares available for future grant under the terms of our Omnibus Stock Plan will increase upon the exercise of the outstanding SARs. The Company cannot predict the impact that future issuances of common or preferred stock or any exercise of outstanding options or grants of additional equity-based interests would have on the market price of its common stock.

Changes in market conditions could decrease the market price of our securities.

The value of our securities depends on various market conditions, which may change from time to time. Among the market conditions that may affect the value of our securities are the following:

•: the extent of institutional investor interest in us;
•: the reputation of REITs generally and the attractiveness of their equity securities in comparison to other equity securities, including securities issued by other real estate companies, and fixed income securities;
•: our NOLs which are generally available to offset the amount of the REIT taxable income that we otherwise would be required to distribute as dividends;
•: our financial condition and performance; and
•: general financial market conditions.

The stock market in recent years has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies.

Operating Properties

731 Lexington Avenue

The 731 Lexington Avenue property is located on Lexington Avenue and 59^th Street and is situated in the heart of one of Manhattan's busiest business and shopping districts, with convenient access to several subway and bus lines. The property is located directly across the street from Bloomingdale's flagship store and only a few blocks away from Fifth Avenue and 57^th Street.

731 Lexington Avenue is a 1.1 million square foot multi-use building. The building contains approximately 885,000 net rentable square feet of office space and approximately 174,000 net rentable square feet of retail space. 731 Lexington Avenue also contains approximately 248,000 net saleable square feet (which is not included in the 1.1 million square feet above) of residential space consisting of 105 condominium units (through a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS")).

As of December 31, 2005, the Company has leased all of the office space, of which 697,000 square feet of office space is leased to Bloomberg L.P., and 176,000 square feet of office space is leased to Citibank N.A. In addition, the Company has leased 169,000 square feet of retail space to, among others, The Home Depot, Hennes & Mauritz, The Container Store, Wachovia Bank and Bank of America.

As of December 31, 2005, 100 of the 105 residential condominium units were sold and closed.

On July 6, 2005, the Company completed a $320,000,000 mortgage financing on the retail space. The loan is interest only at a fixed rate of 4.93% and matures in July 2015. Of the net proceeds of approximately $312,000,000 (net of mortgage recording tax and closing costs), $90,000,000 was used to repay the construction loan and $124,000,000 was used to repay the loans from Vornado. In the event of a substantial casualty, up to $75,000,000 of this loan may become recourse.

The office space is encumbered by a first mortgage loan with a balance of $400,000,000 at December 31, 2005. The loan matures in February 2014 and bears interest at 5.33%.

Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center

The Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center (the "Center") contains 1,098,000 square feet and is comprised of a two-level mall (the "Mall") containing 470,000 square feet and two four-level anchor stores. One of the anchor stores is owned by the Company and leased to Sears, while the other anchor store is owned and operated as a Macy's store by Federated. The Center occupies a 24.3 acre site at the intersection of Flatbush Avenue and Avenue U in Brooklyn, New York. Among the Center's features are a marina, a five-level parking garage and an energy plant that generates electrical power at the Center.

The Company plans to construct a freestanding building adjacent to the Mall containing approximately 120,000 square feet, which has been leased to Lowe's Home Improvement Warehouse ("Lowe's"). This lease is expected to commence in 2007. The cost of this project will be approximately $11.5 million, which is net of a tenant reimbursement of $16.5 million. This cost includes construction of structured elements, which will support a second and third level. There can be no assurance that this project will commence, be completed, completed on time or completed for the budgeted amount.

The following table sets forth lease expirations for the Mall tenants in the Center as of December 31, 2005, for each of the next ten years, assuming none of the tenants exercise their renewal options.

2003	98%		47.95
2002	97%		45.59
2001	96%		45.97

The Center is encumbered by a first mortgage loan with a balance of $210,539,000 at December 31, 2005. The loan matures in June 2011 and bears interest at 7.46%.

Rego Park I

The Rego Park I property, located in Queens, New York, encompasses the entire block fronting on Queens Boulevard and bounded by 63^rd Road, 62^nd Drive, 97^th Street and Junction Boulevard. The existing 351,000 square foot building was redeveloped in 1996 and is fully leased to Sears, Circuit City, Bed Bath & Beyond, Marshalls and Old Navy. In conjunction with the redevelopment, a multi-level parking structure was constructed to provide paid parking spaces for approximately 1,200 vehicles.

The property is encumbered by a first mortgage loan with a balance of $80,926,000 at December 31, 2005. The loan matures in June 2009 and bears interest at 7.25%.

Paramus

The Company owns 30.3 acres of land located at the intersection of Routes 4 and 17 in Paramus, New Jersey. The Company's property is located directly across from the Garden State Plaza regional shopping mall and is within two miles of three other regional shopping malls and ten miles of New York City. This land is leased to IKEA Property, Inc. The lease has a 40-year term with a purchase option at the end of the twentieth year for $75,000,000. The Company has a $68,000,000 interest only, non-recourse mortgage loan on the property from a third party lender. The fixed interest rate on the debt is 5.92% with interest payable monthly until maturity in October 2011. The triple-net rent each year is the sum of $700,000 plus the amount of debt service on the mortgage loan. If the purchase option is exercised the Company will receive net cash proceeds of approximately $7,000,000 and recognize a gain on the sale of the land of approximately $62,000,000. If the purchase option is not exercised the triple-net rent for the last 20 years must include debt service sufficient to fully amortize $68,000,000 over the remaining 20-year lease term.

Flushing

The Flushing property is located on Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street in the downtown, commercial section of Flushing, Queens, New York. Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street are active shopping districts and there are many national retailers located in the area. A subway entrance is located directly in front of the property with bus service across the street. The property comprises a vacant four-floor building containing 177,000 square feet and a parking garage.

In the fourth quarter of 2003, the Company recognized $1,289,000 of income representing a non-refundable deposit of $1,875,000, net of $586,000 of costs associated with the transaction, from a party that had agreed to purchase this property, as such party had not met its obligations under a May 30, 2002 purchase contract. On September 10, 2002, November 7, 2002, and July 8, 2004, the Company received letters from the party demanding return of the deposit. On December 28, 2005, the party filed a complaint against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York alleging the Company failed to honor the terms and conditions of the agreement. The complaint seeks specific performance and, if specific performance is denied, it seeks the return of the deposit plus interest and $50,000 in costs. The Company, after consulting with its legal counsel, does not believe the party is entitled to either specific performance or a return of the deposit and is defending the action.

The Company is currently in negotiations with various retailers to lease all or a portion of the property.

Property to Be Developed

Rego Park II

The Company owns two land parcels containing approximately 10 acres adjacent to its Rego Park I property in Queens, New York. One parcel comprises the entire square block bounded by the Horace Harding Service Road, 97^th Street, 62^nd Drive and Junction Boulevard. The other is a parcel of approximately one-quarter square block at the intersection of Junction Boulevard and the Horace Harding Service Road.

The Company's plan for the entire square block parcel is a mixed-use, development containing approximately 600,000 square feet of retail space on four levels, a parking deck of approximately 1,400 spaces and may also include up to 450 apartment units in two towers. On September 20, 2005, the Company received governmental approvals for this project. The Company has entered into a lease with Century 21 for 134,000 square feet of retail space at this project.

While the current plans for the one-quarter square block parcel are very preliminary, we anticipate it may include up to 80,000 square feet of retail space.

There can be no assurance that these projects will commence, be completed, completed on time or completed for the budgeted amount.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is a party to, nor is their property the subject of, any material pending legal proceeding other than routine litigation incidental to their businesses. The Company believes that these legal actions will not be material to the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

As of February 1, 2006, there were approximately 484 holders of record of the Company's common stock. The Company pays dividends only if, as and when declared by its Board of Directors. No dividends were paid in 2005 and 2004. In order to qualify and maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company is required, among other conditions, to distribute as dividends to its stockholders at least 90% of annual REIT taxable income. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had Net Operating Loss Carryovers ("NOLs") of approximately $31,739,000, which generally would be available to offset the amount of REIT taxable income that otherwise would be required to be distributed as a dividend to stockholders.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

Overview

Alexander's, Inc. (the "Company" or "Alexander's") is a real estate investment trust ("REIT") engaged in leasing, managing, developing and redeveloping properties. Alexander's conducts its activities through its manager, Vornado Realty Trust ("Vornado"). Alexander's has six properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area including the 731 Lexington Avenue property, a 1,300,000 square foot multi-use building in Manhattan, and the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center located in Brooklyn.

The Company competes with a large number of real estate property owners and developers. The Company's success depends upon, among other factors, trends of national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants, the availability and cost of capital, interest rates, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations and legislation, population trends, zoning laws, and the ability of the Company to lease, sublease or sell its properties, at profitable levels. The Company's success is also subject to its ability to refinance existing debts as they come due and on acceptable terms.

The Company has substantially completed the development of 731 Lexington Avenue and placed the property into service during 2005. As a result, the Company's revenues, expenses and cash flows from operating activities increased substantially over the prior year. See "Results of Operations" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for further details.

As of December 31, 2005, 100 of the 105 residential condominium units were sold and closed, which resulted in an after-tax net gain of $62,851,000, of which $60,943,000 was recognized in the year ended December 31, 2005, under the percentage of completion method. Subsequent to December 31, 2005, the Company has entered into sales contracts for 3 of the remaining 5 residential condominium units.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Set forth below is a summary of the accounting policies that management believes are critical to the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements. This summary should be read in conjunction with the more complete discussion of the Company's accounting policies included in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Real Estate

Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful lives, which range from seven to 50 years. Betterments, significant renewals and certain costs directly related to the acquisition, improvement and leasing of real estate are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. As real estate is undergoing development activities, all property operating expenses, including interest expense, are capitalized to the cost of the real property to the extent that management believes such costs are recoverable through the value of the property. The recognition of depreciation expense requires estimates by management of the useful life of each property and improvement, as well as an allocation of the costs associated with a property, including capitalized costs, to its various components. If the Company does not allocate these costs appropriately or incorrectly estimates the useful lives of its real estate, depreciation expense could be misstated.

The Company's properties are reviewed for impairment if events or circumstances change, indicating that the carrying amount of the property may not be recoverable. In such an event, a comparison is made of the current and projected operating cash flows of each such property into the foreseeable future on an undiscounted basis to the carrying amount of the property. The carrying amount of an asset would be adjusted, if necessary, to reflect an impairment in the value of the asset. If the Company incorrectly estimates undiscounted cash flows, impairment charges may be different. The impact of such estimates in connection with future impairment analyses could be material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company periodically evaluates the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of tenants to make required payments under the lease agreements. The Company also maintains an allowance for receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents. This receivable arises from earnings recognized in excess of amounts currently due under the lease agreements. Management exercises judgment in establishing these allowances and considers payment history and current credit status in developing these estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company has the following revenue sources and revenue recognition policies:

•: Base rent (revenue arising from tenant leases)—These rents are recognized over the non-cancelable term of the related leases on a straight-line basis, which includes the effects of rent steps and free rent abatements under the leases.
•: Percentage Rents (revenue arising from retail tenant leases that is contingent upon the sales of tenants exceeding defined thresholds)—These rents are recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition, which states that this contingent revenue is only to be recognized after the contingency has been removed (i.e., the sales threshold has been achieved).
•: Expense Reimbursements (revenue arising from tenant leases which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses and real estate taxes of the respective properties)—This revenue is accrued in the same periods as the expenses are incurred.
•: Condominium Sales (income arising from the sales of condominium units at the Lexington Avenue property)—Income on deposits received for sales of condominium units has been deferred in accordance with the deposit method of SFAS No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate. Gains on sales of condominium units are recognized under the percentage of completion method.

The Company assesses, among other things, the collectibility of revenue before recognition. If the Company incorrectly assesses collectibility of revenue, net earnings and assets could be misstated.

Income Taxes

The Company operates in a manner intended to enable it to continue to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under the Code, the Company's net operating loss carryovers ("NOLs") generally would be available to offset the amount of the Company's REIT taxable income that would otherwise be required to be distributed as dividends to its stockholders.

The Company has elected to treat its wholly owned subsidiary, 731 Residential LLC, as a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"). The TRS is subject to income tax at regular corporate tax rates. The Company's NOLs will not be available to offset taxable income of TRS. As of December 31, 2005, 100 of the 105 residential condominium units were sold and closed. In connection therewith, TRS recognized $51,825,000 of income tax expense, of which $13,870,000 was paid in the year ended December 31, 2005. TRS paid no income taxes in 2004 or 2003. TRS deferred income taxes, where applicable, are accounted for in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 109, Accounting For Income Taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards based on enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. However, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is more likely than not that they will be realized based on consideration of available evidence, including tax planning strategies and other factors.

Stock Appreciation Rights

Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs") are granted at 100% of the market price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Compensation expense for each SAR is measured by the excess of the stock price at the current balance sheet date over the stock price at the previous balance sheet date. If the stock price is lower at the current balance sheet date, previously recognized expense is reversed, but not below zero.

Recently Issued Accounting Literature

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets—An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. The amendments made by SFAS 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a broader exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have "commercial substance." SFAS 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 153 on its effective date did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123: (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123R"). SFAS 123R replaces SFAS 123, using the prospective method, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25: Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123R requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements and be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. SFAS 123R is effective as of the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 123R will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2005, the FASB issued FIN 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143, Asset Retirement Obligations. FIN 47 provides clarification of the term "conditional asset retirement obligation" as used in SFAS 143, defined as a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. Under this standard, a company must record a liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. FIN 47 became effective in the Company's fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2005. Upon review of its assets, the Company has concluded that no asset retirement obligation exists as of December 31, 2005. Accordingly, the adoption of FIN 47 on its effective date had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections—a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. SFAS 154 changes the requirements for the accounting and reporting for a change in accounting principle by requiring that a voluntary change in accounting principle be applied retrospectively with all prior period financial statements presented on the new accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to do so. SFAS 154 also provides that (i) a change in the method of depreciating or amortizing a long-lived non-financial asset be accounted for as a change in estimate (prospectively) that was effected by a change in accounting principle, and (2) corrections of errors in previously issued financial statements should be termed a "restatement". SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 154 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2005, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") on Issue No. 04-05, "Determining Whether a General Partner, or General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights" ("EITF 04-05"). EITF 04-05 provides a framework for determining whether a general partner controls, and should consolidate, a limited partnership or a similar entity. EITF 04-05 became effective on June 29, 2005, for all newly formed or modified limited partnership arrangements and January 1, 2006 for all existing limited partnership arrangements. The Company has elected to early adopt the provisions of EITF 04-05 and accordingly, has consolidated its investment in the Kings Plaza energy plant joint venture in the fourth quarter of 2005.

Results of Operations

Years Ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004

The Company had net income of $82,241,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to a net loss of $33,469,000 in the prior year, an increase of $115,710,000. Net income for 2005 includes (i) $60,943,000 for an after-tax net gain from the sale of residential condominium units at 731 Lexington Avenue, (ii) $2,088,000 of income from the settlement of claims against third parties for environmental remediation at Kings Plaza, partially offset by, (iii) $27,588,000 for an accrual of SARs compensation expense. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2004 includes (i) $76,789,000 for an accrual of SARs compensation expense, (ii) $3,050,000 for the write-off of the proportionate share of unamortized debt issuance costs in connection with the reduction of the principal amount of a construction loan, partially offset by, (iii) $3,862,000 for a net gain on sale of non-depreciable real estate.

Property rentals were $132,949,000 in 2005, compared to $110,541,000 in 2004, an increase of $22,408,000. The following table details the increase by property:

Tenant		Delivery Date	Increase
731 Lexington Avenue:
	Citibank N.A.	Feb. 2005	$	11,150,000
	The Container Store	Mar. 2005		4,132,000
	Hennes & Mauritz	May 2004		2,136,000
	The Home Depot	Mar. 2004		1,925,000
	Other tenants	Various		2,145,000

				21,488,000
Other properties				920,000

			$	22,408,000

Tenant expense reimbursements were $54,136,000 in 2005, compared to $38,354,000 in 2004, an increase of $15,782,000. This increase was largely due to reimbursements from tenants at 731 Lexington Avenue under leases that commenced subsequent to the second quarter of 2004.

Operating expenses were $64,872,000 in 2005, compared to $47,615,000 in 2004, an increase of $17,257,000. This increase was primarily due to lower amounts being capitalized in the current year period as well as additional operating costs being incurred at 731 Lexington Avenue as a result of the property being substantially placed into service during 2005.

General and administrative expenses were $32,393,000 in 2005, compared to $81,285,000 in 2004, a decrease of $48,892,000. This decrease was primarily due to a $49,201,000 decrease in the accrual for SARs compensation expense in 2005.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $19,877,000 in 2005, compared to $15,527,000 in 2004, an increase of $4,350,000. This increase was due to depreciation on the 731 Lexington Avenue building and improvements, which were substantially placed into service during 2005.

Interest and other income, net was $14,769,000 in 2005, compared to $1,571,000 in 2004, an increase of $13,198,000. This increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in average cash balances of $274,000,000, (ii) an increase in the average yield on investments of approximately 2%, and (iii) income of $2,088,000 from the settlements of claims against third parties for environmental remediation at Kings Plaza.

Interest and debt expense was $62,678,000 in 2005, compared to $40,320,000 in 2004, an increase of $22,358,000. This increase was primarily due to (i) lower amounts of capitalized interest in the current year as a result of 731 Lexington Avenue being substantially placed into service during 2005 (interest of $6,935,000 was capitalized in 2005, compared to $25,087,000 in 2004) and (ii) an increase of $131,000,000 in the average debt outstanding, primarily due to the 731 Lexington Avenue retail financing of $320,000,000 in July 2005.

Years Ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003

The Company had a net loss of $33,469,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared to a net loss of $17,742,000 in the prior year. The net loss for 2004 includes (i) an accrual of $76,789,000 for SAR's compensation expense, (ii) a $3,050,000 write-off of for the proportionate share of unamortized deferred debt expense in connection with the reduction of the principal amount of the construction loan for the 731 Lexington Avenue project, and (iii) income of $3,862,000 from the sale of land in White Plains, New York. The net loss for 2003 includes (i) an accrual of $44,917,000 for SARs, (ii) $1,289,000 resulting from the recognition as income of the non-refundable deposit from the planned sale of the Flushing property of $1,875,000, net of $586,000 for costs associated with this transaction, and (iii) income from discontinued operations of $1,206,000 representing the reversal of previously accrued contingent liabilities.

Property rentals were $110,541,000 in 2004, compared to $56,785,000 in 2003, an increase of $53,756,000. The following table details the increase by property:

Tenant		Delivery Date	Increase
731 Lexington Avenue:
	Bloomberg L.P.	Various	$	40,771,000
	The Home Depot	Mar. 2004		6,086,000
	Hennes & Mauritz	May 2004		3,622,000
	Other tenants	Various		2,687,000

				53,166,000
Other properties				590,000

			$	53,756,000

Tenant expense reimbursements were $38,354,000 in 2004, compared to $30,377,000 in 2003, an increase of $7,977,000. This increase was largely due to reimbursements from Bloomberg L.P.

Operating expenses were $47,615,000 in 2004, compared to $37,984,000 in 2003, an increase of $9,631,000. This increase resulted primarily from operating expenses at 731 Lexington Avenue of $9,435,000.

General and administrative expenses were $81,285,000 in 2004, compared to $48,921,000 in 2003, an increase of $32,364,000. This primarily resulted from the increase in the accrual for SARs compensation expense.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $15,527,000 in 2004, compared to $7,497,000 in 2003, an increase of $8,030,000. This increase was due to depreciation on the space delivered to tenants at 731 Lexington Avenue, as noted above.

Interest and other income, net was $1,571,000 in 2004, compared to $1,983,000 in 2003, a decrease of $412,000. This decrease was due to $1,289,000 recognized in 2003 representing a non-refundable deposit from the planned sale of the Flushing property, offset by an increase in interest income from higher average cash balances in 2004.

Interest and debt expense was $40,320,000 in 2004, compared to $13,691,000 in 2003, an increase of $26,629,000. This increase resulted from (i) lower amounts of capitalized interest in the current year because of placing portions of 731 Lexington Avenue in service (interest of $25,087,000 has been capitalized in 2004, as compared to $37,516,000 in 2003) and (ii) an increase in average debt outstanding of $266,853,000, primarily due to the 731 Lexington Avenue office financing of $400,000,000, partially offset by a decline in average interest rates of 0.83%.

Relationship with Vornado

The Company is managed, and its properties are leased and developed, by Vornado pursuant to agreements with one-year terms, expiring in March of each year, which are automatically renewable.

Management and Development Agreements

The annual fee payable to Vornado for management of the Company is equal to the sum of $3,000,000 and 3% of gross income from the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center.

In addition, Vornado is entitled to a development fee equal to 6% of development costs, as defined, with a minimum guaranteed fee of $750,000 per annum.

Leasing Agreements

Vornado also provides all leasing services for the Company for a fee of 3% of rent for the first ten years of a lease term, 2% of rent for the eleventh through the twentieth year of a lease term, and 1% of rent for the twenty-first through thirtieth year of a lease term, subject to the payment of rents by tenants. In the event of the sale of an asset, the fee is 3% of the gross proceeds, as defined. Such amounts are payable annually in an amount not to exceed $2,500,000, until the present value of such installments, calculated at a discount rate of 9% per annum, equals the amount that would have been paid had they been paid at the time the transactions which gave rise to the commissions occurred. Pursuant to the leasing agreement, in the event third party real estate brokers are used, the fees to Vornado increase by 1% and Vornado is responsible for the fees to the third party real estate brokers, except in connection with the Bloomberg L.P. lease, where the tenant paid the third party broker directly.

731 Lexington Avenue Fees

On July 6, 2005, the Company completed a $320,000,000 mortgage financing of the retail space. In connection therewith, the Company repaid the remaining balance of the construction loan and the $124,000,000 loan to Vornado. In addition, the Company paid Vornado the unpaid balance of the development fee of $20,624,000 and $6,300,000 for the Completion Guarantee Fee.

On May 27, 2004, Alexander's entered into an agreement with Vornado under which it provides property management services at 731 Lexington Avenue for an annual fee of $0.50 per square foot of the tenant-occupied office and retail space. Further, the Company entered into an agreement with Building Maintenance Services ("BMS"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vornado, to supervise the cleaning, engineering and security at the 731 Lexington Avenue property for an annual fee of the cost for such services plus 6%. In addition, in October 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with BMS to provide the same services at the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center. These agreements were negotiated and approved on behalf of the Company by a committee of directors of the Company unaffiliated with Vornado.

The following table shows the amounts incurred under the management, leasing and development agreements.

	Year Ended December 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2005		2004		2003
Company management fees	$	3,000	$	3,000	$	3,000
Development fee, guarantee fee and rent for development office		4,431		5,955		10,292
Leasing fees		11,671		12,156		17,919
Property management fees and payments for cleaning, engineering and security services		4,776		2,481		887

	$	23,878	$	23,592	$	32,098

At December 31, 2005, the Company owed Vornado $32,804,000 for leasing fees, and $1,520,000 for management, property management and cleaning fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company anticipates that cash from operations, together with existing cash balances, will be adequate to fund its business operations, recurring capital expenditures, and debt amortization over the next twelve months.

Development Projects

Rego Park II

The Company's plan for the entire square block parcel is a mixed-use, development containing approximately 600,000 square feet of retail space on four levels, about a 1,400 space parking deck and may also include up to 450 apartment units in two towers. On September 20, 2005, the Company received governmental approvals for this project. The Company has entered into a lease with Century 21 for 134,000 square feet of retail space at this project.

While the current plans for the one-quarter square block parcel are very preliminary, we anticipate it may include up to 80,000 square feet of retail space.

There can be no assurance that these projects will commence, be completed, completed on time or completed for the budgeted amount.

Kings Plaza

Prior to April 15, 2005, the Company owned and operated an energy plant that generates electrical power at its Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center. On April 15, 2005, the Company contributed this 35 year old plant, which has been fully depreciated, and $750,000 in cash to a joint venture for a 25% interest. Pursuant to the provisions of EITF 04-05, the Company is presumed to have "control" over the joint venture and accordingly, has consolidated its investment in this joint venture in the fourth quarter of 2005. The joint venture plans to rebuild the plant at a total cost of approximately $18,000,000. There can be no assurance that this project will be completed, completed on time or completed for the budgeted amount.

Insurance

The Company carries comprehensive liability and all risk property insurance ((i) fire, (ii) flood, (iii) extended coverage, (iv) "acts of terrorism" as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Extension Act of 2005 which expires in 2007, and (v) rental loss insurance) with respect to its assets.

On June 30, 2005, the Company renewed its annual all risk policy with limits of (i) $960,000,000 per occurrence including certified terrorist acts and $350,000,000 for non-certified terrorist acts for its 731 Lexington Avenue property, and (ii) $510,000,000 per occurrence including certified terrorist acts and $350,000,000 for non-certified terrorist acts for the remaining properties. To the extent that the Company incurs losses in excess of its insurance coverage, these losses would be borne by the Company and could be material.

The Company's debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by its properties (which are generally non-recourse to Alexander's), contain customary covenants requiring the Company to maintain insurance. Although the Company believes that it has adequate insurance coverage under these agreements, it may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than the Company is able to obtain, or if the Terrorism Risk Insurance Extension Act of 2005 is not extended past 2007, it could adversely affect the Company's ability to finance and/or refinance its properties and expand its portfolio.

Stock Appreciation Rights

On December 29, 2005, Michael Fascitelli, the Company's President, exercised 350,000 of his existing stock appreciation rights ("SARs") which were scheduled to expire in December 2006 and received $173.82 for each SAR exercised, representing the difference between the Company's stock price of $247.70 (the average of the high and low market price) on the date of exercise and the exercise price of $73.88. This exercise was consistent with the Company's tax planning.

On January 10, 2006, the Omnibus Stock Plan Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company granted Mr. Fascitelli a SAR covering 350,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The exercise price of the SAR is $243.83 per share of common stock, which is the average of the high and low trading price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The SAR will become exercisable on July 10, 2006, provided Mr. Fascitelli is employed with the Company on such date, and will expire on March 14, 2007. Mr. Fascitelli's early exercise and the related tax consequences for the Company were factors in the Company's decision to make the new grant to him.

As of January 31, 2006, 850,000 SARs were outstanding and exercisable at a weighted-average exercise price of $141.80. Since the SARs agreements require that they be settled in cash, the Company would have had to pay $89,295,000 if the holders of these SARs had exercised their SARs on January 31, 2006. Any change in the Company's stock price from the closing price of $246.85 at January 31, 2006 would increase or decrease the amount the Company would have to pay upon exercise.

Funds from Operations ("FFO") for the Years Ended December 31, 2005 and 2004

FFO is computed in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). NAREIT defines FFO as net income or loss determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus specified non-cash items, such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO and FFO per diluted share are used by management, investors and industry analysts as supplemental measures of operating performance of equity REITs. FFO and FFO per diluted share should be evaluated along with GAAP net income and income per diluted share (the most directly comparable GAAP measures), as well as cash flow from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, in evaluating the operating performance of equity REITs. Management believes that FFO and FFO per diluted share are helpful to investors as supplemental performance measures because these measures exclude the effect of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, these non-GAAP measures can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other equity REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs as disclosed in the Company's Statements of Cash Flows. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

FFO for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $102,037,000, or $20.09 per diluted share, compared to negative FFO of $18,014,000, or $3.60 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of $120,051,000, or $23.69 per diluted share.

FFO for the year ended December 31, 2005 includes (i) $60,943,000 for an after-tax net gain from the sale of residential condominium units at 731 Lexington Avenue, (ii) income of $2,088,000 from the settlement of claims against third parties for environmental remediation at Kings Plaza, partially offset by, (iii) $27,588,000 for an accrual of SARs compensation expense. These items, in the aggregate, increased FFO by $35,443,000, or $6.98 per diluted share.

Negative FFO for the year ended December 31, 2004 includes (i) $76,789,000 for an accrual of SARs compensation expense, (ii) $3,050,000 for the write-off of the proportionate share of unamortized debt issuance costs in connection with the reduction of the principal amount of a construction loan, partially offset by, (iii) $3,862,000 for a net gain on sale of non-depreciable real estate. These items, in the aggregate, decreased FFO by $75,977,000, or $15.17 per diluted share.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

At December 31, 2005, the Company had $1,079,465,000 of fixed rate debt at a weighted average interest rate of 5.81%, as such the Company has no exposure to changes in interest rates for the remaining terms of its existing debt.

The fair value of the Company's debt, estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the remaining terms of such debt, is less than the aggregate carrying amount by approximately $15,710,000 at December 31, 2005.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Alexander's, Inc.
Paramus, New Jersey

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Alexander's, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules included in the index at item 15(a) (2). These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 27, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on management's assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting and an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION

Alexander's, Inc. (the "Company" or "Alexander's") is a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), incorporated in Delaware, engaged in leasing, managing, developing and redeveloping its properties. The Company conducts its activities through its manager, Vornado Realty Trust ("Vornado").

Alexander's has six properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area consisting of:

Operating properties

(i): the 731 Lexington Avenue property, a 1.1 million square foot multi-use building located on Lexington Avenue and 59^th Street in Manhattan, New York. 731 Lexington Avenue contains 885,000 net rentable square feet of office space and 174,000 net rentable square feet of retail space. 731 Lexington Avenue also contains approximately 248,000 net saleable square feet (which is not included in the 1.1 million square feet above) of residential space consisting of 105 condominium units (though a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS")).

The Company has leased all of the office space of which 697,000 square feet is leased to Bloomberg L.P., and 176,000 square feet is leased to Citibank N.A. In addition, the Company has leased 169,000 square feet of retail space to, among others, The Home Depot, Hennes & Mauritz, The Container Store, Wachovia Bank and Bank of America. As of December 31, 2005, 100 of the 105 residential condominium units were sold and closed;

(ii): the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center, located on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, New York, which contains 1,098,000 square feet and is comprised of a two-level mall containing 470,000 square feet, a 289,000 square foot department store leased to Sears and another anchor department store owned and operated as a Macy's by Federated Department Stores, Inc.;
(iii): the Rego Park I property, located on Queens Boulevard and 63^rd Road in Queens, New York, which contains a 351,000 square foot building that is 100% leased to Sears, Circuit City, Bed Bath & Beyond, Marshalls and Old Navy;
(iv): the Paramus property, which consists of 30.3 acres of land located at the intersection of Routes 4 and 17 in Paramus, New Jersey, which is leased to IKEA Property, Inc;
(v): the Flushing property, located at Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street in Queens, New York, which contains a 177,000 square foot building that is currently vacant; and

Property to be developed

(vi): the Rego Park II property, which comprises one and one-half square blocks of vacant land adjacent to the Rego Park I property.

The Company defines each of its properties as an individual operating segment. It has determined that all properties have similar economic characteristics and meet the other criteria which permit the properties to be aggregated into one reportable segment (the leasing, management, development and redeveloping of properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area). The Company's chief operating decision-maker assess and measure segment operating results based on a performance measure referred to as net operating income at the individual operating segment. Net operating income for each property represents its net rental revenues less its real estate operating expenses.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation—The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany amounts have been eliminated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Real Estate—Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful lives, which range from seven to 50 years. Betterments, significant renewals and certain costs directly related to the acquisition, improvement and leasing of real estate are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. As real estate is undergoing development activities, all property operating expenses, including interest expense, are capitalized to the cost of the real property to the extent that management believes such costs are recoverable through the value of the property.

The Company's properties are reviewed for impairment if events or circumstances change indicating that the carrying amount of the property may not be recoverable. In such an event, a comparison is made of the current and projected operating cash flows of each such property into the foreseeable future on an undiscounted basis to the carrying amount of the property. The carrying amount of an asset would be adjusted, if necessary, to reflect an impairment in the value of the asset.

Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents do not include deposits received on sales of condominium units at the Lexington Avenue property or cash restricted under financing arrangements. Such cash is reflected on the consolidated balance sheets as "Deposits on the sale of condominium units and restricted cash."

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts—The Company periodically evaluates the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of tenants to make required payments under the lease agreements. The Company also maintains an allowance for receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents. This receivable arises from earnings recognized in excess of amounts currently due under the lease agreements. Management exercises judgment in establishing these allowances and considers payment history and current credit status in developing these estimates.

Deferred Charges—Direct financing costs are deferred and amortized over the terms of the related agreements as a component of interest and debt expense. Direct costs related to leasing activities are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related leases. All other deferred charges are amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest rate method, in accordance with the terms of the agreements to which they relate.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The fair value of the Company's debt, estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the remaining terms of such debt, is less than the aggregate carrying amount by approximately $15,710,000 at December 31, 2005.

Revenue Recognition—The Company has the following revenue sources and revenue recognition policies:

Base rent (revenue arising from tenant leases)—These rents are recognized over the non-cancelable term of the related leases on a straight-line basis which includes the effects of rent steps and free rent abatements under the leases.

ALEXANDER'S, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Percentage Rents (revenue arising from retail tenant leases that is contingent upon the sales of tenants exceeding defined thresholds)—These rents are recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition, which states that this contingent revenue is only to be recognized after the contingency has been removed (i.e., the sales threshold has been achieved).

Expense Reimbursements (revenue arising from tenant leases which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses and real estate taxes of the respective properties)—This revenue is accrued in the same periods as the expenses are incurred.

Condominium Sales (income arising from the sales of condominium units at the Lexington Avenue property)—Income on deposits received for sales of condominium units has been deferred in accordance with the deposit method of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate. Gains on sales of condominium, units are recognized under the percentage of completion method.

Income Taxes—The Company operates in a manner intended to enable it to continue to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under the Code, the Company's net operating loss carryovers ("NOLs") generally would be available to offset the amount of the Company's REIT taxable income that would otherwise be required to be distributed as dividends to its stockholders.

At December 31, 2005 the Company has reported NOLs for federal tax purposes of approximately $31,739,000, expiring from 2007 to 2020. The Company also has investment and targeted jobs tax credits of approximately $2,755,000 expiring from 2008 to 2014.

The following table reconciles net income (loss) to REIT taxable income for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003.

	Years Ended December 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2005			2004			2003

NOL carry forward ending balance	$	(31,739	)	$	(49,211	)	$	(64,518	)

The net basis of the Company's assets and liabilities for tax purposes is approximately $28,000,000 lower than the amount reported for financial statement purposes.

Income Per Share—Basic income per share is computed based on weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted income per share considers the effect of outstanding stock options.

Stock Options—The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method. Under the intrinsic value method, compensation cost is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's common stock at the date of grant over the exercise price of the option granted. Compensation cost for stock options, if any, is recognized ratably over the vesting period. The Company's policy is to grant options with an exercise price equal to the quoted market price of the Company's common stock on the grant date. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for the Company's stock options. Since the Company had no option grants in each of the past five years, there were no pro forma effects for stock based compensation.

Stock Appreciation Rights—Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs") are granted at 100% of the market price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Compensation expense for each SAR is measured by the excess of the stock price at the current balance sheet date over the stock price at the previous balance sheet date. If the stock price is lower at the current balance sheet date, previously recognized expense is reversed, but not below zero.

Other Recently Issued Accounting Literature—On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets—An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. The amendments made by SFAS 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a broader exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have "commercial substance." SFAS 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 153 on its effective date did not have a material effect on consolidated financial statements.

In March 2005, the FASB issued FIN 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143, Asset Retirement Obligations. FIN 47 provides clarification of the term "conditional asset retirement obligation" as used in SFAS 143, defined as a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. Under this standard, a company must record a liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. FIN 47 became effective in the Company's fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2005. Upon review of its assets, the Company has concluded that no asset retirement obligation exists as of December 31, 2005. Accordingly, the adoption of FIN 47 on its effective date had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Vornado

The Company is managed, and its properties are leased and developed, by Vornado pursuant to agreements with one-year terms, expiring in March of each year, which are automatically renewable.

Management and Development Agreements

The annual fee payable to Vornado for management of the Company is equal to the sum of $3,000,000 and 3% of gross income from the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center.

In addition, Vornado is entitled to a development fee equal to 6% of development costs, as defined, with a minimum guaranteed fee of $750,000 per annum.

Leasing Agreements

731 Lexington Avenue Fees

On May 27, 2004, Alexander's entered into an agreement with Vornado under which it provides property management services at 731 Lexington Avenue for an annual fee of $0.50 per square foot of the tenant-occupied office and retail space. The Company entered into an agreement with Building Maintenance Services ("BMS"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vornado, to supervise the cleaning, engineering and security at the 731 Lexington Avenue property for an annual fee of the cost for such services plus 6%. In addition, in October 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with BMS to provide the same services at the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center. These agreements were negotiated and approved on behalf of the Company by a committee of directors of the Company unaffiliated with Vornado.

The following table shows the amounts incurred under the management, leasing and development agreements.

	Years Ended December 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2005		2004		2003
Company management fees	$	3,000	$	3,000	$	3,000

At December 31, 2005, the Company owed Vornado $32,804,000 for leasing fees, and $1,520,000 for management, property management and cleaning fees.

Other

In the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, Winston & Strawn LLP, a law firm in which Neil Underberg, a director of the Company, is of counsel, performed legal services for the Company for which it was paid $368,000, $323,000 and $100,000, respectively.

4. DEBT

On February 13, 2004, the 731 Lexington Avenue Construction Loan was modified so that the remaining availability was $237,000,000, which was approximately the amount estimated to complete the 731 Lexington Avenue project at the closing date (not including the development and guarantee fees to Vornado). The interest rate on the Construction Loan of LIBOR plus 2.5% and the maturity date of January 2006, with two one-year extensions, were not changed. The collateral for the Construction Loan was the same except that the office space had been removed from the lien. Further, the Construction Loan permitted the release of the retail space for a payment of $15 million and required all proceeds from the sale of the residential condominium units to be applied to the Construction Loan balance until it was finally repaid. In connection with reducing the principal amount of the Construction Loan, the Company wrote-off $3,050,000, representing the proportionate share of unamortized deferred debt expense, in the first quarter of 2004, which is included in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2005.

On February 13, 2004, the Company closed a $400,000,000 mortgage financing on the office space. The loan bears interest at 5.33%, matures in February 2014 and beginning in the third year, provides for principal payments based on a 25-year amortization schedule such that over the remaining eight years of the loan, ten years of amortization will be paid. Of the loan proceeds, $253,529,000 was used to repay the entire amount outstanding under the previously existing Construction Loan.

The following is a summary of the Company's outstanding debt, all of which have fixed interest rates.

(1): In the event of a substantial casualty, up to $75,000,000 of this loan may become recourse.

At December 31, 2005, the principal repayments for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:

(Amounts in thousands)
Year Ending December 31,	Amount
2006	$	10,966
2007		14,088
2008		14,850
2009		93,304
2010		15,842
Thereafter		930,415

All of the Company's debt is secured by mortgages and/or pledges of the stock of the subsidiaries holding the properties. The net carrying value of real estate collateralizing the debt amounted to $599,863,000 at December 31, 2005.

The Company's existing financing documents contain restrictive covenants which limit the ability to incur indebtedness, make prepayments of indebtedness, pay dividends, make investments, engage in transactions with affiliates, issue or sell capital stock of subsidiaries, create liens, sell assets, acquire or transfer property and engage in mergers and acquisitions.

5. MINORITY INTEREST

Prior to April 15, 2005, the Company owned and operated an energy plant that generates electrical power at its Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center. On April 15, 2005, the Company contributed this 35 year old plant, which has been fully depreciated, and $750,000 in cash to a joint venture for a 25% interest. The joint venture plans to rebuild the plant at a total cost of approximately $18,000,000. Pursuant to the provisions of EITF 04-05, the Company is presumed to have "control" over the joint venture and accordingly, has consolidated its investment in the joint venture in the fourth quarter of 2005. As a result, the Company has a minority interest liability of $2,250,000 at December 31, 2005, representing the limited partner's investment in the joint venture.

6. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Income from discontinued operations of $1,206,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003 represents the reversal of previously accrued contingent liabilities.

7. NET GAIN ON SALE OF CONDOMINIUMS AND OTHER REAL ESTATE

731 Lexington Avenue

Other

On August 12, 2004, the Company sold 1.29 acres of land in White Plains, New York for $4,500,000, resulting in a net gain on sale of $3,862,000. The Company paid a commission of $135,000 to Vornado, which was included in the expenses relating to the sale.

8. LEASES

As Lessor

The Company leases space to tenants in retail centers and an office building. The rental terms range from approximately 5 to 25 years. The leases provide for the payment of fixed base rents payable monthly in advance as well as reimbursements of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs. Retail leases also provide for the payment by the lessee of additional rents based on a percentage of their sales.

Future base rental revenue under these non-cancelable operating leases is as follows:

(Amounts in thousands)
Year Ending December 31,	Amount
2006	$	108,394
2007		106,388
2008		109,005
2009		104,949
2010		104,142
Thereafter		1,459,186

These future minimum amounts do not include additional rents based on a percentage of tenants' sales. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, these rents were $804,000, $911,000 and $945,000, respectively.

Bloomberg L.P. accounted for 34%, and 36% of the Company's consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Sears accounted for 11% and 18% of the Company's consolidated revenues in 2004 and 2003, respectively. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of revenues in any of the last three years.

As Lessee

The Company is a tenant under long-term leases that range from approximately 13 to 22 years. Future minimum lease payments under these operating leases are as follows:

(Amounts in thousands)
Year Ending December 31,	Amount
2006	$	785
2007		785
2008		795
2009		802
2010		802
Thereafter		13,018

Rent expense was $662,000, $416,000 and $416,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Insurance

The Company's debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties (which are generally non-recourse to Alexander's), contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although the Company believes that it has adequate insurance coverage under these agreements, it may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than the Company is able to obtain, or if the Terrorism Risk Insurance Extension Act of 2005 is not extended past 2007, it could adversely affect the Company's ability to finance and/or refinance its properties and expand its portfolio.

Environmental Remediation

In June 1997, the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center commissioned an Environmental Study and Contamination Assessment Site Investigation (the "Phase II Study") to evaluate and delineate environmental conditions disclosed in a Phase I study. The results of the Phase II Study indicated the presence of petroleum and bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate contamination in the soil and groundwater. The Company has delineated the contamination and has developed a remediation approach, which is ongoing. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation ("NYSDEC") has approved a portion of the remediation approach. The Company accrued $2,675,000 in previous years, of which $2,612,000 has been paid as of December 31, 2005, for its estimated obligation with respect to the cleanup of the site, and which includes costs of (i) remedial investigation, (ii) feasibility studies, (iii) remedial design, (iv) remedial action and (v) professional fees. If NYSDEC insists on a more extensive remediation approach, the Company could incur additional obligations.

The Company has concluded that most of the contamination at the site is historic and the result of past activities of third parties. In connection with the pursuit of claims against third parties, on January 31, 2005 and November 14, 2005, the Company received settlements from such parties of $337,500 and $1,750,000, respectively, which are included in "Interest and Other Income on the Company's" consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Flushing Property

Rego Park II

While the current plans for the one-quarter square block parcel are very preliminary, we anticipate it may include up to 80,000 square feet of retail space.

There can be no assurance that these projects will commence, be completed, completed on time or completed for the budgeted amount.

Kings Plaza

Letters of Credit

Approximately $4,130,000 of standby letters of credit were issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2005.

10. STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

Under the Company's Omnibus Stock Plan (the "Plan"), originally approved by the Company's stockholders in May 1996, directors, officers and employees of the Company and Vornado, and any other person or entity as designated by the Omnibus Stock Plan Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, are eligible for grants of incentive and non-qualified options to purchase common shares. Options granted have exercise prices equal to 100% of the market price of the Company's common stock at the date of grant, vest on a graduated basis, becoming fully vested 36 months after grant, and expire ten years after grant. The Plan also provides for the award of SARs, performance shares and restricted stock, as defined.

At December 31, 2005, 81,850 options were outstanding and exercisable with a remaining contractual life of 3.2 years and a weighted-average exercise price of $70.38. There were 10,150, 13,000 and 0 options exercised in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. There were no option grants in 2005. At December 31, 2005, there were 1,745,000 shares available for future grant under the Plan.

MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER
FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management of Alexander's, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company"), is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company's principal executive and principal financial officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company's financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

As of December 31, 2005, management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 is effective.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurances that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of the Company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Management's assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report appearing on page 53 which expresses unqualified opinions on management's assessment and on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Alexander's, Inc.
Paramus, New Jersey

We have audited management's assessment, included within this December 31, 2005 Form 10-K of Alexander's, Inc. at Item 9A under the heading "Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting," that Alexander's, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company") maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management's assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, management's assessment that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements and the related financial statement schedules as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 of the Company and our report dated February 27, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and financial statement schedules.
