FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS
FOR THE QUARTER AND YEAR-TO-DATE ENDED JANUARY 31, 2014
Minot, ND – March 12, 2014 – Investors Real Estate Trust (NYSE: IRET) reported financial and operating results today for the quarter and year-to-date ended January 31, 2014.
During the three month period ended January 31, 2014, IRET's revenues increased from the year-earlier period.

During the nine month period ended January 31, 2014, IRET's revenues increased from the year-earlier period. FFO overall increased and on a per share and unit basis decreased for the nine month period ended January 31, 2014 compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Significant Events and Transactions during the third quarter of fiscal year 2014:
·
The previously-announced resignations from the Company's Board of Trustees of W. David Scott and John Reed, and the election of Terrance P. Maxwell to the Board of Trustees.
·
The substantial completion of two development projects placed in service during the quarter:  the 132-unit Cypress Court multi-family residential property in St. Cloud, Minnesota, owned by a joint venture entity in which the Company has an approximately 86% interest, and the 146-unit River Ridge multi-family residential property in Bismarck, North Dakota.
·
The sale of two multi-family residential properties, three commercial industrial properties and two commercial retail properties for a total sales price of $11.7 million.
·
The entrance into an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement with First International Bank & Trust, a North Dakota state bank, as lender, under which First International has agreed to provide a revolving credit facility with a commitment amount at the time of close of $72 million. At the discretion of First International, the total commitment available under the credit facility may be increased to $75 million. The Loan Agreement amends and restates IRET Properties' previous secured line of credit with First International and participant banks.
IRET's President and Chief Executive Officer, Timothy Mihalick, commented, "IRET continued to make progress on its development projects during the third quarter of fiscal year 2014, with our 146-unit River Ridge apartment property in Bismarck, North Dakota and the 132-unit Cypress Court apartments in St. Cloud, Minnesota, placed in service. Both projects experienced strong leasing demand on opening.  We also continued with our planned dispositions of non-core properties, closing in the third quarter on the sale of two multi-family residential properties, three industrial properties and two retail properties for a total sales price of $11.7 million. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, we completed a strategic planning process, presenting to our Board of Trustees a strategic plan which we expect to drive change over the next several years. Under this strategic plan, we intend to continue our focus on identifying for disposition properties whose location, age, or need for significant tenant improvements or capital expenditures suggest that our investment may be better deployed elsewhere. We also plan to direct new investments primarily toward our healthcare (in particular, senior housing) and multi-family residential segments. We believe this strategic plan will help us create a strong foundation for growth in the long term."

1    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."  In addition, in October 2011 NAREIT clarified its computation of FFO to exclude impairment charges for all periods presented. FFO is a non-GAAP measure. We consider FFO, which is a standard supplemental measure for equity real estate investment trusts, helpful to investors because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of properties without giving effect to impairment write-downs and to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes 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. See table below for a reconciliation of Net Income to FFO.

Operating Results
Net Operating Income (NOI)2 from all properties increased by approximately $5.5 million  or 14.5%, during the three month period ended January 31, 2014, compared to the same period one year ago. Non-stabilized properties accounted for $2.8 million of the increase while stabilized properties3 increased by $2.6 million.
Third quarter NOI stabilized results were positively impacted by sustained high occupancy in our multi-family residential segment, which allowed for selective increases in rental rates, and by a real estate tax credit in North Dakota. As compared to prior quarters, occupancy increased in the commercial office and commercial healthcare segments, and percentage rents increased in our commercial healthcare segment.  Non-stabilized comparative NOI results were impacted in the third quarter by a gain on involuntary conversion from a fire loss of $1.5 million, with no gain on involuntary conversion in the same period of the prior fiscal year.
NOI from all properties increased by $9.0 million, or 8.0%, during the nine month period ended January 31, 2014, compared to the same period one year ago. Non-stabilized properties accounted for $5.0 million of the increase while stabilized properties added $4.1 million.
Even with the exclusion of the $2.5 million positive impact on NOI due to the gain on involuntary conversion recorded in the first and third quarters of fiscal year 2014, our non-stabilized portfolio is providing positive NOI growth, primarily driven by development projects being placed in service in the nine months ended January 31, 2014. These developments are continuing to achieve strong lease up on delivery to the market.  Stabilized NOI increased as compared to the prior periods, primarily due to continued strength in occupancy in our multifamily segment, which allows for rental rate increases, and to increased occupancy and overall improved operating results in our commercial office and commercial healthcare segments. Higher occupancy in these segments provides for greater reimbursement of operating expenses. Detail on NOI by segment is provided in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended January 31, 2014.
Physical occupancy as of January 31, 2014 compared to January 31, 2013 increased in two of our five reportable segments (commercial office and commercial healthcare), decreasing in our multi-family residential, commercial industrial and commercial retail segments, on a stabilized basis and an all-property basis. The decrease of 7.6% in physical occupancy in our commercial industrial segment was due to the expiration of a single lease for 147,600 square feet at our Eagan, Minnesota property in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013.  At January 31, 2014 our stabilized industrial commercial segment was comprised of six properties, five of which were 100% occupied and the Eagan, Minnesota property which was approximately 15% occupied. Physical occupancy represents the actual number of units or square footage leased divided by the total number of units or square footage at the end of the period.

______________________________
2 We measure the performance of our segments based on NOI, which we define as total real estate revenues and gain on involuntary conversion less real estate expenses (which consist of utilities, maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance, property management expenses and other property expenses). We believe that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for a real estate investment trust's operating real estate because it provides a measure of core operations that is unaffected by depreciation, amortization, financing and general and administrative expense. NOI does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income, net income available for common shareholders or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance. See tables below for a reconciliation of NOI to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
3 Stabilized properties are properties owned or in service for the entirety of the periods being compared, and, in the case of development or re-development properties, which have achieved a target level of occupancy of 90% for multi-family residential properties and 85% for commercial office, healthcare, industrial and retail properties.

Acquisitions, Development Projects Place in Service and Dispositions
During the third quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Company closed on its acquisition of:
·
an approximately 3.4-acre parcel of vacant land in Fruitland, Idaho, acquired for possible future development, for a purchase price of $335,000, paid in cash.
During the third quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Company placed in service the 132-unit Cypress Court multi-family residential property in St. Cloud, Minnesota, owned by a joint venture entity in which the Company has an approximately 86% interest and the 146-unit River Ridge multi-family residential property in Bismarck, North Dakota. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Company sold two multi-family residential properties, three commercial industrial properties and two commercial retail properties for a total sales price of $11.7 million.
Shareholder Equity, Distributions and Capital Structure
As of January 31, 2014, IRET had a total capitalization of $2.3 billion. Total capitalization is defined as the market value (closing price at end of period) of the Company's outstanding common shares and the imputed market value of the outstanding limited partnership units of IRET Properties (which are convertible, at the expiration of a specified holding period, into cash or, at the Company's sole discretion, into common shares of the Company on a one-to-one basis), plus the book value of the Company's preferred shares and the outstanding principal balance of the consolidated debt of the Company.
On January 15, 2014, IRET paid a quarterly distribution of $0.1300 per share and unit on its common shares and limited partnership units of IRET Properties. This was IRET's 171st consecutive distribution. IRET also paid, on December 31, 2013, a quarterly distribution of $0.5156 per share on its Series A preferred shares and a quarterly distribution of $0.4968 per share on its Series B preferred shares.
