KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.      Interim Financial Statements

Principles of Consolidation -

     The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Kimco Realty Corporation (the “Company”), its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned, and all entities in which the Company has a controlling interest or has been determined to be a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. The information furnished is unaudited and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 3, 2004.

     Certain 2003 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2004 financial statement presentation.

Income Taxes -

     The Company and its qualified REIT subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. The Company has made an election to qualify, and believes it is operating so as to qualify, as a Real Estate Investment Trust (a “REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its stockholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under Section 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”). However, in connection with the Tax Relief Extension Act of 1999, which became effective January 1, 2001, the Company is now permitted to participate in certain activities which it was previously precluded from in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code. As such, the Company will be subject to federal and state income taxes on the income from these activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company’s provision for federal and state income taxes was approximately $10.3 and $9.8 million, respectively, relating to activities conducted in its taxable REIT subsidiaries.

     (a) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, the effect of the assumed conversion of certain downREIT units would have an anti-dilutive effect upon the calculation of Income from continuing operations per share. Accordingly, the impact of such conversion has not been included in the determination of diluted earnings per share calculations.

     The Company maintains a stock option plan (the “Plan”) for which prior to January 1, 2003, the Company accounted for under the intrinsic value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations including FASB Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation (an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25), issued in March 2000. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the prospective method provisions of SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure and Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123 (“SFAS No. 148”), which applies the recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS No. 123”) to all employee awards granted, modified or settled after January 1, 2003. Awards under the Company’s Plan generally vest ratably over a three-year term and expire ten years from the date of grant. Therefore, the cost related to stock-based employee compensation included in the determination of net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 is less than that which would have been recognized if the fair value based method had been applied to all awards since the original effective date of SFAS No. 123. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding stock awards in each period (amounts presented in thousands, expect per share data):

New Accounting Pronouncements -

     In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46”), the primary objective of which is to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE (the “primary beneficiary”). This new model applies when either (i) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional financial support. In addition, effective upon issuance, FIN 46 requires additional disclosures by the primary beneficiary and other significant variable interest holders. The provisions of FIN 46 apply immediately to VIE’s created after January 31, 2003. In October 2003, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 46-6, which deferred the effective date to December 31, 2003 for applying the provisions of FIN 46 for interests held by public companies in all VIEs created prior to February 1, 2003. Additionally, in December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (revised December 2003) (“FIN 46(R)”). The provisions of FIN 46(R) are effective as of March 31, 2004 for all non-special purpose entity (“non-SPE”) interests held by public companies in all variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46(R) did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

     The Company’s joint ventures and other real estate investments primarily consist of co-investments with institutional and other joint venture partners in neighborhood and community shopping center properties, consistent with its core business. These joint ventures typically obtain non-recourse third party financing on their property investments, thus contractually limiting the Company’s losses to the amount of its equity investment; and due to the lender’s exposure to losses, a lender typically will require a minimum level of equity in order to mitigate their risk. The Company’s exposure to losses associated with its unconsolidated joint ventures is limited to its carrying value in these investments.

     In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (“SFAS No. 150”). This Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). The provisions of this statement are effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise are effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. On November 7, 2003, the FASB deferred the classification and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 150 as they apply to certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests. This deferral is expected to remain in effect while these provisions are further evaluated by the FASB. As a result of this deferral, the adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

     At September 30, 2004, the estimated fair value of minority interests relating to mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests associated with finite-lived subsidiaries of the Company was approximately $3.8 million. These finite-lived subsidiaries have termination dates ranging from 2019 to 2027.

     In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force reached a final consensus regarding Issue 03-6, Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under SFAS 128, (“EITF 03-6”). The issue addresses a number of questions regarding the computation of earnings per share by companies that have issued securities other than common stock that participate in dividends and earnings of the issuing entity. Such securities are contractually entitled to receive dividends when and if the entity declares dividends on common stock. The issue also provides further guidance on applying the two-class method of calculating earnings per share once it is determined that a security is participating. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. This consensus is effective for the period ending September 30, 2004 and should be applied by restating previously reported earnings per share. The adoption of EITF 03-6 had no impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

2.      Operating Property Activities

     During January 2004, the Company acquired a shopping center property located in Hyannis, MA, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”), for a purchase price of approximately $37.0 million including the assumption of approximately $18.8 million of non-recourse mortgage debt. During May 2004, this property was transferred to a newly formed unconsolidated joint venture entity in which the Company has a 15% non-controlling interest.

     During January 2004, the Company acquired a shopping center property located in Temple, TX, through a joint venture in which the Company holds a 60% controlling interest, for a purchase price of approximately $25.5 million including the assumption of approximately $21.7 million of non-recourse mortgage debt.

     During February 2004, the Company acquired an interest in a shopping center property located in Towson, MD, comprising approximately 0.7 million square feet of GLA, for a purchase price of approximately $81.5 million including the assumption of approximately $47.8 million of non-recourse mortgage debt. In connection with the funding of this transaction the Company issued the seller downREIT units valued at approximately $24.1 million. The units provide the holder a 4.5% return per annum on the value of the units with distributions made on a monthly basis. During September 2004, this property was transferred to a newly formed unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company has a 30% non-controlling interest.

     During 2003, the Company disposed of four properties for net proceeds of approximately $41.2 million which were placed in escrow for use in a 1031 exchange transaction. These proceeds together with an additional $13.7 million cash investment were used to acquire an exchange shopping center property located in Homdel, NJ, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA, during February 2004.

     During May 2004, the Company acquired a shopping center property located in Madison, TN, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA, for a purchase price of approximately $20.6 million including the assumption of approximately $14.6 million of non-recourse mortgage debt.

     During June 2004, the Company acquired a shopping center property located in Roanoke, VA, comprising approximately 0.1 million square feet of GLA, for a purchase price of approximately $11.2 million.

     During June 2004, the Company acquired an operating property through the acquisition of a 50% partnership interest in a joint venture in which the Company had held a 50% interest.

     Additionally, during June 2004, the Company acquired, in separate transactions, two shopping center properties located in Houston, TX, and Manchester, VT, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $31.4 million.

     During July 2004, the Company acquired an operating property located in Tampa, FL, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA, for a purchase price of approximately $16.8 million.

     Additionally, during July 2004, the Company acquired two self-storage facilities located in Nashville, TN, through a joint venture in which the Company currently holds a 100% economic interest, for a purchase price of approximately $9.5 million. Based upon the provisions of FIN(R) 46, the Company has determined that this entity is a VIE. The Company has further determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of this VIE and has, therefore, consolidated this entity for financial reporting purposes. The Company’s exposure to losses associated with this entity is limited to the Company’s capital investment which is approximately $9.5 million at September 30, 2004.

     During July 2004, the Company acquired land located in Huehuetoca, Mexico, through a joint venture in which the Company has a 95% controlling interest for a purchase price of approximately $6.9 million.

     During August 2004, the Company acquired land located in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, through a joint venture in which the Company has a 64.4% controlling interest for a purchase price of approximately $5.8 million. The property will be developed as a grocery anchored retail center with a projected total cost of approximately $12.7 million.

     During March 2004, the Company reclassified as held-for-sale two shopping center properties comprising approximately 0.3 million square feet of GLA. The book value of these properties, aggregating approximately $8.7 million, net of accumulated depreciation of approximately $4.2 million, exceeded their estimated fair value. The Company’s determination of the fair value of these properties, aggregating approximately $4.5 million, is based upon contracts of sale with third parties less estimated selling costs. As a result, the Company has recorded a loss resulting from an adjustment of property carrying values of $4.2 million. During March 2004, the Company completed the sale of one of these properties, comprising approximately 0.1 million square feet of GLA, for a sales price of approximately $1.1 million. During June 2004, the Company completed the sale of the other property, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA, for a sales price of approximately $3.9 million. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets (“SFAS No. 144”), the loss along with the related property operations for the current and comparative years, have been included in the caption Discontinued operations on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Company (i) disposed of, in separate transactions, an additional 11 operating properties and one ground lease for an aggregate sales price of approximately $64.4 million, including the assignment of approximately $8.0 million of non-recourse mortgage debt encumbering one of the properties; cash proceeds of approximately $16.9 million from the sale of two of these properties were used in a 1031 exchange to acquire shopping center properties located in Roanoke, VA, and Tempe, AZ, (ii) transferred 16 operating properties to KROP, as defined below, for an aggregate price of approximately $182.9 million, which approximated their net book values, and (iii) transferred 20 operating properties, comprising approximately 3.1 million square feet of GLA, to various co-investment ventures in which the Company has non-controlling interests ranging from 10% to 30% for an aggregate price of approximately $471.8 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, these dispositions resulted in gains of approximately $12.5 million and a loss on sale from one of the properties of approximately $0.9 million. For those property dispositions for which SFAS No. 144, is applicable, the operations and gain or loss on the sale of the property have been included in the caption Discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto. These unaudited financial statements include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Results of Operations

Revenues from rental property increased $5.9 million or 5.0% to $123.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, as compared with $117.4 million for the corresponding quarter ended September 30, 2003. Similarly, revenues from rental property increased $42.2 million or 12.1% to $392.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared with $350.0 million for the corresponding nine month period ended September 30, 2003. These net increases resulted primarily from the combined effect of (i) acquisitions during 2004 and 2003 providing incremental revenues of $8.6 million and $44.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, respectively, (ii) an overall increase in shopping center portfolio occupancy to 92.9% at September 30, 2004, as compared to 89.5% at September 30, 2003 and the completion of certain development and redevelopment projects and tenant buyouts providing incremental revenues of approximately $5.3 million and $11.5 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the corresponding periods last year, offset by (iii) a decrease in revenues of approximately $8.0 million and $13.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period last year, resulting from the sale of certain development properties and the transfer of operating properties to various unconsolidated joint venture entities during 2004 and 2003.

Rental property expenses, including depreciation and amortization, increased approximately $4.9 million or 9.7% to $55.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, as compared with $50.8 million for the corresponding quarter ended September 30, 2003. Similarly, for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, rental property expenses, including depreciation and amortization, increased $26.2 million or 17.3% to $177.7 million as compared with $151.5 million for the corresponding period in the preceding year. These increases are primarily due to operating property acquisitions during 2004 and 2003 which were partially offset by property dispositions and operating properties transferred to various unconsolidated joint venture entities.

Income from other real estate investments decreased $0.9 million to $5.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to $6.0 million for the corresponding period in 2003. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in income from the Montgomery Ward Asset Designation Rights transaction which was completed during the second quarter of 2004 and provided income of $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003. Income from other real estate investments increased $4.6 million to $20.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $15.8 million for the corresponding period in 2003. This increase is primarily due to (i) increased investment in the Company’s Preferred Equity program which contributed $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $2.8 million for the corresponding period in 2003, and (ii) increased income from the investment in retail store leases of $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $0.5 million for the corresponding period in 2003.

Mortgage and other financing income decreased $0.5 million to $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $3.7 million for the corresponding quarter ended September 30, 2003. Similarly, mortgage financing income decreased $6.3 million to $9.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $16.0 million for the corresponding nine month period ended September 30, 2003. These decreases are primarily due to lower interest and financing income earned related to certain real estate lending activities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the same periods last year.

Management and other fee income increased approximately $1.7 million and $8.0 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2003. These increases are primarily due to incremental fees earned from growth in the co-investment programs and fees earned from disposition services provided to various retailers.

During February 2003, the Company reached agreement with a lender in connection with two individual non-recourse mortgages encumbering two former Kmart sites. The Company paid approximately $8.3 million in full satisfaction of these loans which aggregated approximately $14.7 million. As a result of this transaction, the Company recognized a gain on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $6.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2003.

Equity in income of real estate joint ventures, net increased $2.7 million to $13.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $11.2 million for the corresponding period in 2003. Similarly, equity in income of real estate joint ventures, net increased $9.3 million to $39.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared with $30.5 million for the corresponding period in 2003. These increases are primarily attributable to the equity in income from the RioCan joint venture investment (“RioCan Venture”), the Kimco Retail Opportunity Portfolio joint venture investment (“KROP”) and the Company’s growth of its various other real estate joint ventures. The Company has made additional capital investments in these and other joint ventures for the acquisition of additional shopping center properties throughout 2003 and the nine months ended September 30, 2004.

     During March 2004, the Company reclassified as held-for-sale two shopping center properties comprising approximately 0.3 million square feet of GLA. The book value of these properties, aggregating approximately $8.7 million, net of accumulated depreciation of approximately $4.2 million, exceeded their estimated fair value. The Company’s determination of the fair value of these properties, aggregating approximately $4.5 million, is based upon contracts of sale with third parties less estimated selling costs. As a result, the Company recorded a loss resulting from an adjustment of property carrying values of $4.2 million. During March 2004, the Company completed the sale of one of these properties, comprising approximately 0.1 million square feet of GLA, for a sales price of approximately $1.1 million. During June 2004, the Company completed the sale of the other property, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA, for a sales price of approximately $3.9 million. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets (“SFAS No. 144”), the loss along with the related property operations for the current and comparative years, have been included in the caption Discontinued operations on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Company (i) disposed of, in separate transactions, an additional 11 operating properties and one ground lease for an aggregate sales price of approximately $64.4 million including the assignment of approximately $8.0 million of non-recourse mortgage debt encumbering one of the properties; cash proceeds of approximately $16.9 million from the sale of two of these properties were used in a 1031 exchange to acquire shopping center properties located in Roanoke, VA, and Tempe, AZ, (ii) transferred 16 operating properties to KROP for an aggregate price of approximately $182.9 million, which approximated their net book values, and (iii) transferred 20 operating properties to various co-investment ventures in which the Company has non-controlling interests ranging from 10% to 30% for an aggregate price of approximately $471.8 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, these dispositions resulted in gains of approximately $12.5 million and a loss on sale from one of the properties of approximately $0.9 million.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company, (i) disposed of, in separate transactions, six operating properties for an aggregate sales price of approximately $112.5 million, including the assignment of approximately $1.7 million in non-recourse mortgage debt encumbering one of the properties, (ii) terminated four leasehold positions in locations where a tenant in bankruptcy had rejected its lease and (iii) transferred two operating properties to KROP for a price of approximately $85.0 million. These dispositions resulted in net gains of approximately $30.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003.

     For those property dispositions for which SFAS No. 144 is applicable, the operations and gain or loss on the sale of the property have been included in the caption Discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, KDI, the Company’s wholly-owned development taxable REIT subsidiary, in separate transactions, sold 21 out-parcels, its partnership interest in one project and four recently completed projects for approximately $130.8 million. These sales provided gains of approximately $7.4 million, net of income taxes of approximately $ 4.9 million.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, KDI, in separate transactions, sold 16 out-parcels and four completed projects for approximately $118.5 million, which resulted in gains of approximately $9.2 million, net of income taxes of $6.1 million.

     Income from continuing operations including gain on sale of development properties, net of income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $71.7 million and $211.4 million, respectively. Income from continuing operations including gain on sale of development properties, net of income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $61.9 million and $184.1 million, respectively. On a diluted per share basis, income from continuing operations increased $0.07 to $0.61 for the three month period ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $0.54 for the corresponding quarter in the previous year. On a diluted per share basis, income from continuing operations improved $0.26 to $1.79 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $1.53 for the corresponding period in 2003. These increases are primarily attributable to (i) the incremental operating results from the acquisition of operating properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and throughout calendar year 2003, including the Mid-Atlantic Realty Trust transaction, (ii) an increase in equity in income of real estate joint ventures resulting from additional capital investments in the RioCan Venture, KROP and other joint venture investments for the acquisition of additional shopping center properties by the ventures throughout 2003 and the nine months ended September 30, 2004, (iii) an increase in management and other fee income related to the growth in the co-investment programs and (iv) increased income from other real estate investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to the same period last year.

     Net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $78.5 million and $221.3 million, respectively. Net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $91.5 million and $223.8 million, respectively. On a diluted per share basis, net income decreased $0.14 to $0.67 for the three month period ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $0.81 for the corresponding quarter in the previous year. On a diluted per share basis, net income decreased $0.02 to $1.88 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $1.90 for the corresponding period in 2003. These decreases are primarily attributable to a decrease in income from discontinued operations of $22.9 million and $29.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2003 attributable to properties sold during 2004 and 2003. In addition, the diluted per share results for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were decreased by a reduction in net income available to commons shareholders of $0.07 resulting from the deduction of original issuance costs associated with the redemption of the Company’s 7¾% Class A, 8½% Class B and 8 3/8% Class C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stocks during the second quarter 2003.

Tenant Concentration

     The Company seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through diversification achieved by the geographic distribution of its properties, avoiding dependence on any single property, and a large tenant base. At September 30, 2004, the Company’s five largest tenants include The Home Depot, TJX Companies, Kohl’s, Kmart Corporation, and Wal-Mart, which represented approximately 3.7%, 3.2%, 2.8%, 2.7% and 1.9%, respectively, of the Company’s annualized base rental revenues including the proportionate share of base rental revenues from properties in which the Company has less than a 100% economic interest.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     It is management’s intention that the Company continually have access to the capital resources necessary to expand and develop its business. As such, the Company intends to operate with and maintain a conservative capital structure with a level of debt to total market capitalization of 50% or less. As of September 30, 2004, the Company’s level of debt to total market capitalization was 23%. In addition, the Company intends to maintain strong debt service coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios as part of its commitment to maintaining its investment-grade debt ratings. The Company may, from time to time, seek to obtain funds through additional equity offerings, unsecured debt financings and/or mortgage financings and other debt and equity alternatives in a manner consistent with its intention to operate with a conservative debt structure.

     Since the completion of the Company’s IPO in 1991, the Company has utilized the public debt and equity markets as its principal source of capital for its expansion needs. Since the IPO, the Company has completed additional offerings of its public unsecured debt and equity, raising in the aggregate over $3.5 billion for the purposes of, among other things, repaying indebtedness, acquiring interests in neighborhood and community shopping centers, funding ground-up development projects, expanding and improving properties in the portfolio and other investments.

     The Company has a $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, which is scheduled to expire in August 2006. This credit facility has made available funds to both finance the purchase of properties and other investments and meet any short-term working capital requirements. As of September 30, 2004, there was no outstanding balance under this credit facility.

     During September 2004, the Company entered into a three year Canadian denominated (“CAD”) $150.0 million unsecured credit facility with a group of banks. This facility bears interest at the CDOR Rate, as defined, plus 0.50%, and is scheduled to expire in September 2007 with an option to extend for an additional year. Proceeds from this facility will be used for general corporate purposes including the funding of Canadian denominated investments. As of September 30, 2004, there was no outstanding balance under this credit facility.

     During May 2003, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 for up to $1.0 billion of debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares, common stock and common stock warrants. As of September 30, 2004, the Company had $409.7 million available for issuance under this shelf registration statement.

     The Company also has a medium-term notes (“MTN”) program pursuant to which it may, from time to time, offer for sale its senior unsecured debt for any general corporate purposes, including (i) funding specific liquidity requirements in its business, including property acquisitions, development and redevelopment costs and (ii) managing the Company’s debt maturities. As of September 30, 2004, the Company had $100.0 million available for issuance under the MTN program.

     In addition to the public equity and debt markets as capital sources, the Company may, from time to time, obtain mortgage financing on selected properties. As of September 30, 2004, the Company had over 350 unencumbered property interests in its portfolio.

     In connection with its intention to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company expects to continue paying regular dividends to its stockholders. These dividends will be paid from operating cash flows which are expected to increase due to increased investment in properties and other real estate related opportunities, growth in operating income from the existing portfolio and from other sources. Since cash used to pay dividends reduces amounts available for capital investment, the Company generally intends to maintain a conservative dividend payout ratio, reserving such amounts as it considers necessary for the expansion and renovation of shopping centers in its portfolio, debt reduction, the acquisition of interests in new properties and other investments as suitable opportunities arise, and such other factors as the Board of Directors considers appropriate.

     The Company anticipates that cash flows from operations will continue to provide adequate capital to fund its operating and administrative expenses, regular debt service obligations and all dividend payments in accordance with REIT requirements in both the short-term and long-term. In addition, the Company anticipates that cash on hand, availability under its revolving credit facilities, issuance of equity and public debt, as well as other debt and equity alternatives, will provide the necessary capital required by the Company. Cash flow from operations was $294.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to $237.5 million for the corresponding period ended September 30, 2003.

Effects of Inflation

     Many of the Company's leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. Such provisions include clauses enabling the Company to receive payment of additional rent calculated as a percentage of tenants' gross sales above pre-determined thresholds, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. Such escalation clauses often include increases based upon changes in the consumer price index or similar inflation indices. In addition, many of the Company's leases are for terms of less than 10 years, which permits the Company to seek to increase rents to market rates upon renewal. Most of the Company's leases require the tenant to pay an allocable share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. The Company periodically evaluates its exposure to short-term interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates and will, from time to time, enter into interest rate protection agreements and/or foreign currency hedge agreements which mitigate, but do not eliminate, the effect of changes in interest rates on its floating-rate debt and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

New Accounting Pronouncements

     In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46”), the primary objective of which is to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE (the “primary beneficiary”). This new model applies when either (i) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional financial support. In addition, effective upon issuance, FIN 46 requires additional disclosures by the primary beneficiary and other significant variable interest holders. The provisions of FIN 46 apply immediately to VIE’s created after January 31, 2003. In October 2003, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 46-6, which deferred the effective date to December 31, 2003 for applying the provisions of FIN 46 for interests held by public companies in all VIEs created prior to February 1, 2003. Additionally, in December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (revised December 2003) (“FIN 46(R)”). The provisions of FIN 46(R) are effective as of March 31, 2004 for all non-special purpose entity (“non-SPE”) interests held by public companies in all variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46(R) did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

     The Company’s joint ventures and other real estate investments primarily consist of co-investments with institutional and other joint venture partners in neighborhood and community shopping center properties, consistent with its core business. These joint ventures typically obtain non-recourse third party financing on their property investments, thus contractually limiting the Company’s losses to the amount of its equity investment; and due to the lender’s exposure to losses, a lender typically will require a minimum level of equity in order to mitigate their risk. The Company’s exposure to losses associated with its unconsolidated joint ventures is limited to its carrying value in these investments.

     In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force reached a final consensus regarding Issue 03-6, Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under FAS 128, (“EITF 03-6”). The issue addresses a number of questions regarding the computation of earnings per share by companies that have issued securities other than common stock that participate in dividends and earnings of the issuing entity. Such securities are contractually entitled to receive dividends when and if the entity declares dividends on common stock. The issue also provides further guidance on applying the two-class method of calculating earnings per share once it is determined that a security is participating. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. This consensus is effective for the period ending September 30, 2004 and should be applied by restating previously reported earnings per share. The adoption of EITF 03-6 had no impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

     This quarterly report on Form 10-Q, together with other statements and information publicly disseminated by the Company contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include this statement for purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe the Company’s future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project” or similar expressions. You should not rely on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond the Company’s control and which could materially affect actual results, performances or achievements. Factors which may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, (i) general economic and local real estate conditions, (ii) the inability of major tenants to continue paying their rent obligations due to bankruptcy, insolvency or general downturn in their business, (iii) financing risks, such as the inability to obtain equity or debt financing on favorable terms, (iv) changes in governmental laws and regulations, (v) the level and volatility of interest rates, (vi) the availability of suitable acquisition opportunities and (vii) increases in operating costs. Accordingly, there is no assurance that the Company’s expectations will be realized.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

     As of September 30, 2004, the Company had approximately $251.1 million of floating-rate debt outstanding, including $100.0 million of unsecured MTN’s due August 2006 and $125.1 million of construction loans. The Company believes the interest rate risk on its floating-rate debt is not material to the Company or its overall capitalization.

     As of September 30, 2004, the Company has Canadian investments totaling CAD $205.3 million (approximately USD $162.7 million) comprised of investments in real estate joint ventures and marketable securities. In addition, the Company has Mexican real estate joint ventures and mortgage financing investments of approximately MXN $480.1 million (approximately USD $42.1 million). The foreign currency exchange risk on these investments has been mitigated through the use of foreign currency forward contracts (the “Forward Contracts”) and a cross currency swap (the “CC Swap”) with major financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counter-party to the Forward Contracts and the CC Swap. The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into the Forward Contracts and the CC Swap with major institutions.

     The Company has not, and does not plan to, enter into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. As of September 30, 2004, the Company had no other material exposure to market risks.

Based on such evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act.

     There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

For these reasons, Executive agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive of this Section 12, the Company shall be entitled to a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction restraining Executive from such breach, without the posting of a bond. Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available for such breach or threatened breach or any other breach of this Agreement. The Company and Executive further acknowledge and agree that it may be difficult, if not impossible; to compute the actual damages that will be suffered by the Company upon Executive’s violation of this Section 12. It is agreed, therefore, that in the event Executive breaches these provisions, Executive shall pay to the Company liquidated damages of a full year’s salary during any period of breach and forfeit any payments due under Agreement, or any actual damages that the Company may incur as a result of such breach, whichever amount is greater, in addition to any other damages, including without limitation punitive damages, attorney's fees and costs, awarded by a court or arbitrator related to any breach of these provisions.
   
(e) Effect of Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7(e) of this Agreement, the period of Executive’s employment for purposes of determining the applicability of the restrictions contained in Section 12 of this Agreement shall include any period during which Executive is employed by the Company’s successors or assigns. Upon termination of employment, as defined herein and for whatever cause, Executive shall immediately deliver to the Company or its successors or assigns, all Company property, including without limitation all Confidential Information as defined above.
   
13. Withholding of Taxes. The Company shall withhold from any compensation and benefits payable under this Agreement all applicable federal, state, local, or other taxes.
   
14. Binding on Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, the Executive and their respective successors, assigns, personnel and legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees, and legatees, as applicable. The Company shall cause any successor to all or substantially all of its assets or business to assume this Agreement.
   
15. Governing Law. This Agreement is being made and executed in and is intended to be performed in the State of New York, and shall be governed, construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflict or choice of law rules.

The terms of this Agreement are intended by the parties to be the final expression of their agreement with respect to the employment of the Executive by the Company, may not be contradicted by evidence of any prior or contemporaneous agreement and supersedes any and all prior agreements, including specifically the November 1, 1998 Employment Agreement between the Company and the Executive. The parties further intend that this Agreement shall constitute the complete and exclusive statement of its terms and that no extrinsic evidence whatsoever may be introduced in any judicial, administrative, or other legal proceeding to vary the terms of this Agreement.
   
20. Amendments; Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by the Executive and approved by the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors or by an arbitrator or court seeking to render enforceable through “judicial” modification an otherwise unenforceable provision. By an instrument in writing similarly executed, the Executive or the Company may waive compliance by the other party with any provision of this Agreement that such other party was or is obligated to comply with or perform, provided, however, that such waiver shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any other or subsequent failure.

(d) Remedies for Breach of Confidentiality, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Provisions of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that this Section 11, its terms and his compliance are necessary to protect the Company’s Confidential and Proprietary Information, its business and its goodwill, and that a breach of any of Executive's promises contained in this Section 11 will irreparably and continually damage the Company to an extent that money damages may not be adequate. For these reasons, Executive agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive of this Section 11, the Company shall be entitled to a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction restraining Executive from such breach, without the posting of a bond. Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available for such breach or threatened breach or any other breach of this Agreement. The Company and Executive further acknowledge and agree that it may be difficult, if not impossible; to compute the actual damages that will be suffered by the Company upon Executive’s violation of this Section 11. It is agreed, therefore, that in the event Executive breaches these provisions, Executive shall pay to the Company liquidated damages of a full year’s salary during any period of breach and forfeit any payments due under Agreement, or any actual damages that the Company may incur as a result of such breach, whichever amount is greater, in addition to any other damages, including without limitation punitive damages, attorney's fees and costs, awarded by a court or arbitrator related to any breach of these provisions.
