Company Background and Highlights

Third Quarter Fiscal 2011

Investors Real Estate Trust is a self-administered, equity real estate investment trust (REIT) investing in a portfolio of income-producing properties located primarily in the upper Midwest.  IRET’s portfolio is diversified among multi-family residential, commercial office, commercial medical (including senior housing), commercial industrial and commercial retail segments.

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company acquired three properties: on November 10, 2010, the Company acquired the approximately 108,503 square foot Edgewood Vista assisted living facility in Minot, North Dakota, for approximately $15.2 million, consisting of cash of approximately $9.6 million ($7.4 million of which was paid to the current tenant in the property to acquire the option to purchase the property) and the assumption of existing debt of approximately $5.6 million; on December 10, 2010, the Company acquired an approximately 47,709 square foot retail/office property in Minot, North Dakota, for a purchase price, paid in cash, of $8.3 million; and on December 16, 2010, the Company acquired an approximately 58,574 square foot office property in Omaha, Nebraska, for a purchase price of approximately $8.3 million, of which approximately $5.3 million was paid in cash, with the remainder paid in limited partnership units of the Company’s Operating Partnership valued at a total of $3.0 million. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company substantially completed construction of an approximately 24,000 square foot expansion to its existing Edgewood Vista senior housing facility in Spearfish, South Dakota.  The cost to construct the addition was approximately $2.7 million, of which $2.3 million has been paid as of January 31, 2011.

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company sold a small industrial property in Waconia, Minnesota, on November 1, 2010, and three multi-family residential properties in Colorado, the Pinecone and Miramont Apartments in Fort Collins, Colorado and the Neighborhood Apartments in Colorado Springs, Colorado, on November 15, 2010, for a total sales price of $46.6 million.

IRET has substantially completed its announced goal of transferring the management of the majority of our commercial and multi-family residential properties from third-party property management companies to our own employees. As of January 31, 2011, the Company has under internal management a total of 155 properties in our commercial office, commercial medical, commercial industrial and commercial retail segments, totaling approximately 9.5 million square feet. Approximately 82.4% of the properties in our commercial office segment, 89.3% of the properties in our commercial medical segment, 89.5% of the properties in our commercial industrial segment, 97.0% of the properties in our commercial retail segment, and approximately 93.2% of the properties in our multi-family residential segment (approximately 7,793 units in 69 properties) were internally managed by Company employees as of January 31, 2011. IRET continues to evaluate existing and acquired commercial properties to determine additional suitable candidates for internal management, and to establish appropriate timelines to accomplish the transfers.

On April 7, 2009, IRET and IRET Properties entered into a continuous equity offering program sales agreement with Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated (Baird).  Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, IRET may offer and sell its common shares of beneficial interest having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $50 million, from time to time through Baird as IRET's sales agent. Sales of common shares, if any, under the program will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by IRET. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, IRET sold no common shares under this program.

We believe the decreased occupancy levels in our commercial office and commercial industrial segments reflect the economic conditions in our markets, as recovery from the national economic recession has been slow. The recession, and illiquidity and uncertainty in the financial and capital markets during calendar years 2008, 2009, 2010 and continuing into 2011, negatively affected substantially all businesses, including ours. Although signs of an economic recovery have emerged during the first three quarters of our current fiscal year, we continue to expect recovery from the recession to be slow during the balance of the current fiscal year. It is not possible for us to predict or quantify the timing and impact of such a recovery, or lack thereof, during the remainder of fiscal year 2011.

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, IRET paid its 159th consecutive quarterly distribution per common share/unit at equal or increasing rates. The $0.1715 per share/unit distribution was paid January 14, 2011. Company management and the Board continue to review the Company’s common share distribution level in conjunction with closely monitoring the Company’s operating results during this prolonged economic downturn.

As of January 31, 2011, IRET owns a diversified portfolio of 250 properties consisting of 74 multi-family residential properties, 68 commercial office properties, 56 commercial medical properties (including senior housing), 19 commercial industrial properties and 33 commercial retail properties.  IRET’s distributions have been maintained or increased every year for 39 consecutive years. IRET’s shares are publicly traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (NASDAQ:  IRET).

Annualized base rent (ABR) is calculated as monthly base rent (cash basis) per the lease, as of the reporting period, multiplied by 12.

Debt to total market capitalization is total debt from the balance sheet divided by the sum of total debt from the balance sheet plus the market value of shares outstanding at the end of the period.

Debt service coverage ratio is computed by dividing earnings before interest income and expense, depreciation, amortization and gain on sale of real estate by interest expense and principal amortization.

EBITDAis earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure because it eliminates depreciation, interest and the gain/loss from property dispositions, which permits investors to view income from operations without the effect of non-cash depreciation or the cost of debt; however, EBIDTA as we calculate it has not been adjusted for the effect of nonrecurring events such as asset impairment and gain/loss on involuntary conversion.  EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. EBITDA as calculated by us is not comparable to EBITDA reported by other REITs that do not define EBITDA exactly as we do.

Funds from operations (FFO) - The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (NAREIT) defines FFO as “net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.” FFO is a non-GAAP measure.  We consider FFO to be a standard supplemental measure for equity real estate investment trusts because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time.  Since real estate values instead historically rise or fall with market conditions, we believe that FFO provides investors and management with a more accurate indication of our financial and operating results.

Net Operating Income is total real estate revenues less real estate expenses and real estate taxes (which consist of utilities, maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and property management expenses).

Payout ratio (FFO per share and unit basis) - The ratio of the current quarterly or annual distribution rate per common share and unit divided by quarterly or annual FFO per share and unit.

Ratio of earnings to fixed charges - The ratio of earnings to fixed charges is computed by dividing earnings by fixed charges. For this purpose, earnings consist of income from continuing operations plus fixed charges and preferred distributions, less adjustments for noncontrolling interests - consolidated real estate entities, capitalized interest and preferred distributions. Fixed charges consist of mortgage and loan interest expense, whether expensed or capitalized, the amortization of debt expense and capitalized interest.

Ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred distributions - The ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred distributions is computed by dividing earnings by combined fixed charges and preferred distributions. For this purpose, earnings consist of income from continuing operations plus fixed charges and preferred distributions, less adjustments for noncontrolling interests - consolidated real estate entities, capitalized interest and preferred distributions. Combined fixed charges and preferred distributions consist of fixed charges (mortgage and loan interest expense, whether expensed or capitalized, the amortization of debt expense and capitalized interest) and preferred distributions.

Recurring capital expenditures are costs that increase the value and extend the useful life of a property.  Ordinary repair and maintenance costs that do not extend the useful life of the asset are expensed as incurred.  Costs incurred on a lease turnover due to normal wear and tear by the resident are expensed on the turn.  Recurring capital improvements typically include appliances, carpeting and flooring, and kitchen/bath cabinets.

Stabilized properties are those properties owned for the entirety of both periods being compared, and, in the case of development or re-development properties, which have achieved a target level of occupancy.
