See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 9 10 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF The accompanying unaudited 2000 consolidated PRESENTATION financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1999 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000, or for any other interim period. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 1999. 2. EARNINGS PER Earnings per share has been computed by dividing the SHARE income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The per share amounts reflected in the consolidated statements of income are presented in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128 "Earnings per Share"; the amounts of the Company's "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share (as defined in SFAS No. 128) are the same. 3. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain amounts in the 1999 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2000 presentation. 10 11 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OEPRATIONS OVERVIEW The Company was established to continue to operate and expand the retail property business of its Predecessors. The Company commenced its operations on April 22, 1994 with the sale of 2,500,000 shares of common stock in an initial public offering. The net cash proceeds to the Company from the completion of this offering were approximately $45.4 million, which were used primarily to reduce outstanding indebtedness, pay stock issuance costs and establish a working capital reserve. On May 21, 1997, the Company completed an offering of 1,625,000 shares of common stock at $20.625 per share; on June 18, 1997 the underwriters exercised their overallotment option for an additional 28,850 shares at the same per share price (collectively, "the 1997 Offering"). The net proceeds from the 1997 Offering of approximately $31.9 million were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Company's Credit Facility. The assets of the Company are held by, and all operations are conducted through, Agree Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), of which the Company is the sole general partner and held an 86.71% interest as of September 30, 2000. The Company is operating so as to qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal income tax purposes. The following should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Agree Realty Corporation, including the respective notes thereto, which are included in this Form 10-Q. COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 Minimum rental income increased $1,299,000, or 9%, to $15,596,000 in 2000, compared to $14,297,000 in 1999. The increase is primarily the result of the development of three properties in 1999 and two properties in 2000. Percentage rental income increased $59,000, or 45%, to $188,000 in 2000, compared to $129,000 in 1999. The increase was the result of increased tenant sales. Operating cost reimbursements, which represent additional rent required by substantially all of the Company's leases to cover the tenants' proportionate share of the property's operating expenses, increased $11,000, or 1%, to $1,799,000 in 2000, compared to $1,788,000 in 1999. Operating cost reimbursements increased due to the increase in real estate taxes from 1999 to 2000 as explained below. Management fees and other income remained relatively constant at $33,000 in 2000, compared to $32,000 in 1999. 11 12 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I Real estate taxes increased $40,000, or 3%, to $1,309,000 in 2000 versus $1,269,000 in 1999. The increase is the result of general assessment increases on the Company's Properties. Property operating expenses (snow removal, shopping center maintenance, insurance and utilities) decreased $2,000, to $889,000 in 2000 versus $891,000 in 1999. The decrease was the result of decreased snow removal costs of $41,000; an increase in shopping center maintenance costs of $31,000; an increase in utility costs of $7,000 and an increase in insurance costs of $1,000 in 2000 versus 1999. Land lease payments increased $91,000, or 22%, to $500,000 in 2000 compared to $409,000 in 1999. The increase is the result of the Company leasing land for its completed Petoskey, Michigan development. General and administrative expenses increased by $163,000, or 16%, to $1,207,000 in 2000 versus $1,045,000 in 1999. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in compensation-related expenses related to the addition of an employee and wage increases. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total rental income increased from 7.2% for 1999 to 7.7% in 2000. Depreciation and amortization increased $193,000, or 8%, to $2,760,000 in 2000 versus $2,567,000 in 1999. This increase was the result of the completion of three new properties in 1999 and two properties in 2000. Interest expense increased $1,013,000, or 24%, to $5,251,000 in 2000, from $4,238,000 in 1999. The increase in interest expense was the result of the Company's additional borrowing to finance its development of properties and increased rates on variable rate notes payable. The Company received development fee income of $41,000 in 1999; there was no development fee income in 2000. Equity in net income of unconsolidated entities increased $328,000 to $349,000 in 2000 compared to $21,000 in 1999 as a result of depreciation expense no longer being allocated to the Company pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreements in which the Company holds interests in properties ranging from 8% to 20%. The Company's income before minority interest increased $158,000 as a result of the foregoing factors. COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 Rental income increased $471,000, or 10%, to $5,311,000 in 2000, compared to $4,840,000 in 1999. The increase is primarily the result of the development and acquisition of two properties in 1999 and two properties in 1999. Percentage rental income increased $14,000, or 19%, to $85,000 in 2000, compared to $71,000 in 1999. The increase was the result of increased tenant sales. 12 13 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I Operating cost reimbursements increased $27,000, or 5%, to $592,000 in 2000, compared to $565,000 in 1999. Operating cost reimbursements increased due to the increase in real estate taxes and property operating expenses from 1999 to 2000 as explained below. Management fees and other income remained relatively constant at $10,000 in 2000 compared to $13,000 in 1999. Real estate taxes increased $11,000, or 3%, to $436,000 in 2000 versus $425,000 in 1999. The increase is the result of general assessment increases on the Company's Properties. Property operating expense (snow removal, shopping center maintenance, insurance and utilities) increased $14,000, or 6% to $243,000 in 2000 versus $229,000 in 1999. The increase was the result of increased snow removal costs of $7,000; an increase in shopping center maintenance costs of $2,000; a decrease in insurance costs of $1,000 and an increase in utilities of $6,000 in 2000 versus 1999. Land lease payments increased $50,000, or 37%, to $185,000 in 2000 compared to $135,000 in 1999. The increase is the result of the Company leasing land for its completed Petoskey, Michigan development. General and administrative expenses increased $22,000, or 6%, to $396,000 in 2000 compared to $374,000 in 1999. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in compensation-related expenses. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total rental income decreased from 7.6% for 1999 to 7.3% in 2000. Depreciation and amortization increased $68,000, or 8%, to $924,000 in 2000 versus $856,000 in 1999. The increase was the result of the development of two properties in 1999 and two properties in 2000. Interest expense increased $376,000, or 26%, to $1,834,000 in 2000, from $1,458,000 in 1999. The increase in interest expense was the result of the Company's additional borrowing to finance its development of properties and increased rates on variable rate notes payable. Equity in net income of unconsolidated entities increased $167,000 to $174,000 in 2000 compared to $7,000 in 1999 as a result of depreciation expense no longer being allocated to the Company pursuant to the Joint venture Agreements in which the Company holds interests in properties ranging from 8% to 20%. The Company's income before minority interest increased $135,000 as a result of the foregoing factors. 13 14 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS Management considers Funds from Operations ("FFO") to be a supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance. FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investments Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT") to mean net income computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities in which the REIT holds an interest. 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. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. 14 15 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I The following tables illustrate the calculation of FFO for the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999:

Risks and other factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, the effect of economic and market conditions; risks that the Company's acquisition and development projects will fail to perform as expected; financing risks, such as the inability to obtain debt or equity financing on favorable terms; the level and volatility of interest rates; loss or bankruptcy of one or more of the Company's major retail tenants; and failure of the Company's properties to generate additional income to offset increases in operating expenses. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's principal demands for liquidity are distributions to its stockholders, debt repayment, development of new properties and future property acquisitions. During the quarter ended September 30, 2000, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $.46 per share. The dividend was paid on October 12, 2000 to holders of record on September 29, 2000. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had total mortgage indebtedness of $51,957,498 with a weighted average interest rate of 6.92%. Future scheduled annual maturities of mortgages payable for the years ending September 30 are as follows: 2001 - $1,366,258; 2002 - $1,483,546; 2003 - $1,589,041; 2004 - $1,702,042; and 2005 - $1,823,086. This mortgage debt is all fixed rate debt. In addition, the Operating Partnership has in place a $50 million line of Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility") which is guaranteed by the Company. The loan matures in August 2003 and can be extended by the Company for an additional three years. Advances under the Credit Facility bear interest within a range of one-month to six-month LIBOR plus 150 basis points to 213 basis points or the bank's prime rate, at the option of the Company, based on certain factors such as debt to property value and debt service coverage. The Credit Facility is used to fund property acquisitions and development activities and is secured by most of the Company's Properties which are not otherwise encumbered and properties to be acquired or developed. As of September 30, 2000, $30,158,232 was outstanding under the Credit Facility. 16 17 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I The Company also has in place a $5 million line of credit (the "Line of Credit"), which matures on December 19, 2000, and which the Company expects to renew for an additional 12-month period. The Line of Credit bears interest at the bank's prime rate less 50 basis points or 175 basis points in excess of the one-month LIBOR rate, at the option of the Company. The purpose of the Line of Credit is to provide working capital to the Company and fund land options and start-up costs associated with new projects. As of September 30, 2000, $2,0000,000 was outstanding under the Line of Credit. The Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries have obtained construction financing of approximately $16,100,000 to fund the development of four retail properties. The notes require quarterly interest payments, based on a weighted average interest rate based on LIBOR, computed by the lender. The notes mature on October 16, 2002 and are secured by the underlying land and buildings. As of September 30, 2000, $14,585,865 was outstanding. The Company has received funding from an unaffiliated third party for the construction of certain of its Properties. Advances under this agreement bear no interest and are secured by the specific land and buildings being developed. As of September 30, 2000, $1,730,490 was outstanding. The Company has two development projects under construction that will add an additional 29,610 square feet of retail space to the Company's portfolio. The projects are expected to be completed during the fourth quarter of 2000. Additional Company funding required for this project is estimated to be $2,800,000 and will come from the Credit Facility. Management expects the development of this project to have a positive effect on cash generated by operating activities and Funds from Operations. The Company intends to meet its short-term liquidity requirements, including capital expenditures related to the leasing and improvement of the Properties, through its cash flow provided by operations and the Line of Credit. Management believes that adequate cash flow will be available to fund the Company's operations and pay dividends in accordance with REIT requirements. The Company may obtain additional funds for future development or acquisitions through other borrowings or the issuance of additional shares of capital stock. The Company intends to incur additional debt in a manner consistent with its policy of maintaining a ratio of total debt (including construction and acquisition financing) to total market capitalization of 65% or less. 17 18 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I The Company plans to begin construction of additional pre-leased developments and may acquire additional properties, which will initially be financed by the Credit Facility and Line of Credit. Management intends to periodically refinance short-term construction and acquisition financing with long-term debt and/or equity. Upon completion of refinancing, the Company intends to lower the ratio of total debt to market capitalization to 50% or less. Nevertheless, the Company may operate with debt levels or ratios which are in excess of 50% for extended periods of time prior to such refinancing. INFLATION The Company's leases generally contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on net income. These provisions include clauses enabling the Company to pass through to tenants certain operating costs, including real estate taxes, common area maintenance, utilities and insurance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. Certain of the Company's leases contain clauses enabling the Company to receive percentage rents based on tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. In addition, expiring tenant leases permit the Company to seek increased rents upon re-lease at market rates if rents are below the then existing market rates. 18 19 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its borrowing activities. There is inherent rollover risk for borrowings as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and the Company's future financing requirements. Mortgages payable - As of September 30, 2000 the Company had three mortgages outstanding. The first mortgage in the amount of $32,641,617 bears interest at 7.00%. The mortgage matures on November 15, 2005. The second mortgage in the amount of $7,377,751 bears interest at 7.00%. The mortgage matures on April 1, 2013 and is subject to a rate review after the 7th year (April 1, 2006). The third mortgage in the amount of $11,938,130 bears interest at 6.63%. The mortgage matures on February 5, 2017. Construction loans - As of September 30, 2000 the Company had Construction loans outstanding of $16,316,355. Under the terms of the construction loans the Company bears no interest rate risk. Notes Payable - As of September 30, 2000 the Company had $32,158,232 outstanding on its Lines-of Credit which were subject to interest at a variable interest rate based on LIBOR. The Company does not enter into financial instrument transactions for trading or other speculative purposes or to manage interest rate exposure. A 10% adverse change in interest rates on the portion of the Company's debt bearing interest at variable rates would result in an annual increase in interest expense of approximately $260,000. 19 20 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
