Company Background and Highlights

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2015

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; office; healthcare, including senior housing; industrial and retail segments.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company closed on its acquisition of a 119-unit multi-family residential property in Bismarck, North Dakota, for a purchase price of $15.0 million.

Also during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company sold nine office properties, one healthcare property, one retail property and one parcel of unimproved land for sales prices totaling $48.4 million.

The Company experienced improving trends in a majority of its apartment investments in fiscal year 2015. Same-store revenues for the portfolio outpaced same-store expenses and occupancy reached our target 95% at fiscal year end on same store-assets. Same-store revenues in the segment increased 3.4% over the prior fiscal year primarily driven by an increase in scheduled rent in all of our markets ranging from a 0.4% increase in Topeka, KS to 5.4% in Bismarck, ND. Demand was also strong for the 798 apartment units the Company placed in service during fiscal year 2015. However, the Company’s ability to maintain occupancy levels and raise rents remains dependent on continued healthy employment and wage growth. The Company has continued to observe considerable multi-family development activity in the Company’s markets, and as this new construction is completed and leased, the Company will experience increased competition for residents. However, based on information available to the Company, apartment developers in our markets are currently seeing increases in construction costs for potential new apartment developments, which may slow new developments in our markets. The U.S. economic outlook through 2017 is forecasted to be good according to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and Moody’s Analytics. Businesses are adding jobs and for the first time in this phase of the economic cycle we are seeing meaningful wage growth. There is an attitudinal shift also occurring toward renting by professional millennials and to lesser, although growing degree, by baby boomers. These trends are beneficial to apartment owners.

The Company’s office segment, mostly concentrated in Minnesota, continued to be affected by a number of adverse macro conditions. Demand for office space is mixed, with space absorption in the Minneapolis market in particular concentrated in prime locations, and suburban office properties continuing to lag in terms of occupancy. Businesses appear to be maintaining their goal of increasing the density of their work spaces by placing more employees in less total square footage. The demand is strongest for modern office buildings which are in short supply due the lack of new construction of this class of building. The Company’s office buildings are mostly class B, which class has the greatest supply and only modest and selective demand. As a result, we have been unable to effectively compete for the limited number of tenant prospects in the market. The Company continues to expect a slow and uneven recovery in its office segment. Additionally, there is a movement by tenants to the urban cores to attract and retain the best workers. Most of IRET’s office portfolio is suburban.

The Company’s healthcare segment consists of medical office properties and senior housing facilities. The medical office sector remains stable with high occupancy and modest rent increases. The Company’s senior housing assets continue to benefit from the strengthening recovery in the housing market, as occupancy trends are closely aligned with the ability of seniors to sell their homes in anticipation of moving to a senior care facility.

Both the industrial and retail property markets continue to improve. The Company’s industrial properties are located primarily in the Minneapolis market, and all of these Minneapolis properties are 83.4% leased. The demand for bulk warehouse and manufacturing space in the Company’s markets is healthy, with rents generally rising. The retail recovery is evident in regard to the Company’s Minneapolis-metro and grocery-anchored retail properties, which are performing well. Locations outside the Minneapolis-metro area experience less demand, although improving. There is little new construction in our markets, which bodes well going forward.

The Company is in process of selling substantially all of its commercial office and retail properties. In an update to its strategic plan previously announced, the Company is narrowing its property focus. Sale proceeds are intended to be used toward portfolio deleveraging and investments in multi-family residential and healthcare.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015, IRET paid its 176th consecutive quarterly distribution. The $0.1300 per share/unit distribution was payable on April 1, 2015. Subsequent to the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015, on June 2, 2015, the Company’s Board of Trustees declared a regular quarterly distribution of $0.1300 per share and unit on the Company’s common shares of beneficial interest and the limited partnership units of IRET Properties, payable July 1, 2015 to common shareholders and unitholders of record on June 15, 2015. Also on June 2, 2015, the Company’s Board of Trustees’ declared a distribution of $0.5156 per share on the Company’s Series A preferred shares of beneficial interest, payable June 30, 2015 to Series A preferred shareholders of record on June 15, 2015, and declared a distribution of $0.4968 per share on the Company’s Series B preferred shares of beneficial interest, payable June 30, 2015 to Series B preferred shareholders of record on June 15, 2015.

As of April 30, 2015, IRET owns a diversified portfolio of 249 properties consisting of 100 multi-family residential properties, 53 office properties, 66 healthcare properties (including senior housing), 7 industrial properties and 23 retail properties. IRET’s common shares are publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: IRET).

Mortgage debt does not include the Company’s multi-bank line of credit or construction loans. The line of credit has a maturity date of September 1, 2017; as of April 30, 2015, the Company had borrowings of $60.5 million outstanding under this line. Construction loans and other debt totaled $144.1 million as of April 30, 2015.

(1)	Totals are principal balances as of April 30, 2015.

(2)	Loan was paid off subsequent to April 30, 2015.

(3)

Amount is part of a non-recourse $122.6 million CMBS loan, for which nine of the Company’s office properties serve as collateral and under which a special-purpose subsidiary of the Company is the borrower. This loan matures in October 2016. Because the loan amount significantly exceeds the Company’s current estimate of the fair value of this nine-property portfolio, the Company contacted the master servicer to initiate discussions on various alternatives with regard to the loan. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company was notified that the loan has been transferred to the special servicer. On April 14, 2015 the Company received a letter from the special servicer advising that the loan was in default due to a nonpayment on April 6, 2015. The Company cannot predict the outcome of discussions with the special servicer regarding the loan.

(2)	Effective rents represent average annual base rental payments, on a straight-line basis for the term of each lease, excluding operating expense reimbursements. The underlying leases contain various expense structures including gross, modified gross, net and triple net.

Our ability to maintain or increase occupancy rates is a principal driver of maintaining and increasing the average effective rents in our commercial segments. The decrease in the average effective rental rates of new leases executed in our healthcare segment in the three months ended April 30, 2015 and the twelve months ended April 30, 2015 when compared to new leases executed in the same periods in the prior fiscal year is due to the signing of a 3,174 square foot lease for storage space at our St. Paul, Minnesota Ritchie Medical Plaza property for $3.78 per square foot. Absent this transaction, the average effective rental rate for leases executed in our healthcare segment for the twelve months ended April 30, 2015 would have been $20.00 per square foot. The increase in the average effective rental rates of new leases executed in the twelve months ended April 30, 2015 in our retail segment when compared to new leases executed in the prior year is due to the signing of a new anchor tenant lease at our Jamestown Buffalo Mall property in fiscal year 2014. In June of 2013, we executed a ten year lease with an effective date of August 1, 2013 for 84,338 square feet with a new anchor tenant at an average effective rent of $2.75 per square foot. This space was vacated by the former anchor tenant, which was paying $1.70 per square foot at the time their lease expired on May 31, 2013. Absent this transaction, the average effective rental rate for leases executed in our retail segment in fiscal year 2014 would have been $11.72 per square foot. The increase in the average effective rental rate of new leases executed in the total commercial portfolio in fiscal year 2015 when compared to the prior year is primarily due to the Jamestown Buffalo Mall lease mentioned above and the fact that there were no industrial leases executed in fiscal year 2015.

Renewal percentage of expiring leases is based on square footage of renewed leases and not the number of leases renewed. Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, the category of renewed leases does not include leases that have become month-to-month leases; these month-to-month leases are considered lease amendments. Previous-period data has been revised to reflect this change.

(3)

The decrease in the percentage of expiring leases renewed in our commercial industrial segment in the three months ended April 30, 2015 and in the twelve months ended April 30, 2015 when compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year is due to the fact that there were no leases expiring in fiscal year 2015.

The increase in the weighted average growth in effective rents for the retail segment in the twelve months ended April 30, 2015 when compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year is due to a 47,150 square foot lease renewal executed at our Rochester, Minnesota Maplewood Square property and a 36,752 square foot lease renewal at our St. Cloud Westgate property. The increase in the rental rate at our Rochester, Minnesota property was primarily due to the improved financial condition of the tenant which enabled IRET to renew the lease at fair market rental rates. The lease renewal at our St. Cloud, Minnesota property contained a significant tenant improvement allowance negotiated by the tenant which enabled IRET to negotiate an increased rental rate as well. Absent these two lease transactions, the weighted average growth rate in effective rents for the retail segment for the twelve months ended April 30, 2015 would have been 6.4%.

(1)	Includes month-to-month leases. As of April 30, 2015month-to-month leases accounted for 357,422 square feet.

(2)	Annualized Base Rent is monthly scheduled rent as of April 1, 2015, multiplied by 12.

(3)	Assuming that none of the tenants exercise renewal or termination options, and including leases renewed prior to expiration. Also excludes 140,022 square feet of space occupied by IRET, of which 98,174 square feet is income producing real estate operated within a Taxable REIT Subsidiary.

Because of the diverse property types in the Company’s commercial portfolio and the dispersed locations of a substantial portion of the portfolio’s properties in secondary and tertiary markets, information on current market rents is difficult to obtain, is highly subjective, and is often not directly comparable between properties. As a result, the Company believes that the increase or decrease in effective rent on its recent leases is the most objective and meaningful information available regarding rent trends and the relationship between rents on leases expiring in the near-term and current market rents across the Company’s markets. The Company believes that rents on its new and renewed leases generally approximate market rents.

Definitions

April 30, 2015

Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, gain/loss on sale of real estate and other investments, impairment of real estate investments, gain/loss on extinguishment of debt and gain/loss from involuntary conversion. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure because it permits investors to view income from operations without the effect of depreciation, the cost of debt, or non-operating gains and losses. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA as calculated by us is not comparable to Adjusted EBITDA reported by other REITs that do not define Adjusted EBITDA exactly as we do.

Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) is calculated by subtracting from Funds from operations (FFO) (1) tenant improvements and leasing costs at same-store properties, and recurring capital expenditures that are capitalized and amortized and are necessary to maintain our properties and revenue stream and (2) straight line rents, then adding (3) non-real estate depreciation and amortization and (4) share-based compensation expense. We may also subtract from FFO certain unusual non-recurring items that do not produce cash available for distribution to shareholders. Our calculation subtracts from FFO leasing commissions and tenant improvements at same-store properties only, since we consider tenant improvement and leasing cost levels at non-same-store properties unrepresentative of expected levels at same-store properties. Previously-reported AFFO amounts are not revised for changes in the composition of the same-store properties pool. AFFO is included herein because we consider it to be a measure of a REIT's ability to incur and service debt and to pay distributions to its shareholders. AFFO is a non-GAAP and non-standardized measure, and may be calculated differently by other REITs.

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 Adjusted EBITDA by interest expense and principal amortization.

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.” 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.

Net Operating Income (NOI) is total real estate revenues and gain on involuntary conversion less real estate expenses (which consist of utilities, maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and property management expenses). We believe that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for a REIT’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.

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 expenditures (excluding capital expenditures recoverable from tenants and capital expenditures at properties sold during the period) made on a regular or recurring basis to maintain a property’s competitive position within its market, generally with a depreciable life of 5 to 12 years, but excluding (a) capital expenditures made in the year of acquisition and in subsequent periods until the property is classified as same-store (i.e., excluding capital expenditures on non-same-store properties), (b) improvements associated with the expansion or re-development of a building, (c) renovations to a building which change the underlying classification of the building (for example, from industrial to office or Class C office to Class A office) or (d) capital improvements that represent the addition of something new to a property, rather than the replacement of an existing item.

Scheduled rent revenue is the total possible revenue from all leasable units and square footage, with occupied space valued at contract rates pursuant to leases and vacant units or square footage at market rates.

Same-store properties are properties owned or in service for the entirety of the periods being compared (except for properties for which significant redevelopment or expansion occurred during either of the periods being compared, and properties sold or classified as held for sale), 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 office, healthcare, industrial and retail properties.
