Duke Realty Announces Third Quarter Earnings

Common and Preferred Stock Dividends Declared

(Indianapolis, Indiana – October 31, 2007) – Duke Realty Corporation (NYSE: DRE) reported today results for the third quarter 2007. Funds from Operations available to common shareholders (diluted) (“FFO”) was $0.68 per share for the third quarter of 2007, as compared to $0.65 per share for the same quarter in 2006, an increase of 4.6 percent. Net income available for common shareholders (diluted) (“EPS”) was $0.39 per share for the third quarter of 2007, as compared to $0.45 for the same quarter in 2006.

Denny Oklak, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commenting on Duke’s third quarter performance, stated,

“We are very pleased with our third quarter results. Leasing activity for the quarter was an all time record of over 10.8 million square feet of leases signed. As previously announced, we also had a record quarter for development starts with nearly $500 million of 48 percent pre-leased projects started during the third quarter with an average return on our cost of 8.6 percent.

Even with the recent turmoil in the capital markets we expect solid fourth quarter performance. We project Funds From Operations per share to be between $0.78 and $0.82 for the quarter. This equates to per share FFO for the year of $2.71 to $2.75.

In looking forward to 2008, we are confident that our strategic plan will result in expansion of our platform through accretive development and continued capital recycling. Our estimate of FFO per share for 2008 is $2.80 to $3.00.”
