Company Background and Highlights

Third Quarter Fiscal 2012

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, commercial office, commercial medical (including senior housing), commercial industrial and commercial retail segments.

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company closed on its acquisition of a 36-unit multi-family residential property in Isanti, Minnesota, on approximately 1.7 acres of land, and an adjoining 4.9 acre parcel of vacant land, for a purchase price of approximately $3.5 million, of which $3.0 million was paid in cash and the remainder in limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership valued at $495,000. This property is located next to the Company’s existing 36-unit Evergreen Apartments in Isanti, Minnesota. Also during the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company substantially completed construction of an additional approximately 28 assisted living units and 16 memory care units at its existing Meadow Wind senior housing facility in Casper, Wyoming. The Company estimates that construction costs for this expansion project will total approximately $4.7 million. As of January 31, 2012, the Company had incurred approximately $3.8 million of these project costs. The Company had no dispositions of real estate in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012.

The Company’s revenues in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012 continued to be affected by decreased occupancy levels in its commercial office segment, in comparison with the year-earlier period. Despite some signs of economic recovery and renewed commercial leasing interest, the Company believes the continued elevated vacancy in its commercial office segment reflects continuing challenging and uncertain economic conditions in certain of the Company’s markets. IRET’s multi-family residential portfolio continued to improve in occupancy and real estate revenue compared to the year-earlier period, although physical occupancy declined slightly in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012 compared to the immediately preceding quarter, due to lower leasing activity in the winter months

The Company has a currently-effective shelf registration statement under which it has registered common and preferred shares of beneficial interest with an aggregate public offering price of up to $150.0 million. On January 20, 2012, the Company entered into a continuous equity offering program under this shelf registration statement with BMO Capital Markets Corp. (“BMO”) as sales agent, pursuant to which the Company may from time to time offer and sell its common shares of beneficial interest having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $100 million. Sales of common shares, if any, under the program will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by IRET.  During the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, IRET issued approximately 366,000 common shares under this program for total proceeds (before offering expenses but after underwriting discounts and commissions) of $2.7 million.  During the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, IRET sold no shares under its previous continuous equity offering program with Robert W. Baird & Co., Incorporated as sales agent.  The shelf registration statement under which the Company had reserved shares for issuance under this previous continuous equity offering program expired at the end of its three-year life during the second quarter of fiscal year 2012.

As we have previously reported, Minot, North Dakota, where our corporate headquarters is located, experienced significant flooding in June 2011, resulting in extensive damage to our Arrowhead Shopping Center and Chateau Apartments. Costs related to clean-up, redevelopment and loss of rents are being reimbursed to the Company by its insurance carrier, less the Company’s deductible of $200,000 under the policy.  As of January 31, 2012, the Company had received $5.3 million of insurance proceeds for clean-up costs and re-development and approximately $246,000 reimbursement for business interruption (loss of rents); additional reimbursement for business interruption in an amount totaling $328,000 is expected to be added back as income to the extent that insurance proceeds are received and gain contingencies are resolved, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Arrowhead Shopping Center is currently in various stages of re-leasing.  One of the two buildings of the Chateau Apartments property is expected to be available for leasing in the first quarter of fiscal year 2013. The other building, which had been undergoing restoration work following the flood, was destroyed by fire subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, on February 22, 2012.  The Company expects to rebuild the destroyed building but has no firm estimates at this time for costs or expected completion date of such rebuilding. The property is insured and the Company expects its losses to be covered under the insurance policy, subject to a deductible of $200,000. The Company is currently unable to estimate whether and to what extent there may be a gain or loss on involuntary conversion due to this fire.  In regard to the Arrowhead Shopping Center property, the Company currently estimates that a gain on involuntary conversion of approximately $1.7 million will be reported in a future quarter, once all flood-related costs have been reimbursed; however, this amount is an estimate only and is subject to revision as reimbursements are received and recognized.

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, IRET paid its 163rd consecutive quarterly distribution. The $0.1300 per share/unit distribution was payable on January 16, 2012. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company declared a quarterly distribution of $0.1300 per share and unit payable on April 2, 2012 to shareholder and unitholders of record on March 19, 2012. The Board of Trustees also declared a quarterly distribution of $0.5156 per share on the Company’s Series A preferred shares, payable April 2, 2012 to preferred shareholders of record on March 19, 2012.

As of January 31, 2012, IRET owns a diversified portfolio of 265 properties consisting of 81 multi-family residential properties, 68 commercial office properties, 65 commercial medical properties (including senior housing), 19 commercial industrial properties and 32 commercial retail properties.  IRET’s shares are publicly traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (NASDAQ:  IRET).

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 earnings before interest income and expense, depreciation, amortization and gain on sale of real estate by interest expense and principal amortization.

EBITDAis earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure because it eliminates depreciation, interest and the gain/loss from property dispositions, which permits investors to view income from operations without the effect of non-cash depreciation or the cost of debt; however, EBIDTA as we calculate it has not been adjusted for the effect of nonrecurring events such as asset impairment and gain/loss on involuntary conversion.  EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. EBITDA as calculated by us is not comparable to EBITDA reported by other REITs that do not define EBITDA exactly as we do.

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, NAREIT recently 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 is total real estate revenues less real estate expenses (which consist of utilities, maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and property management expenses).

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 costs that increase the value and extend the useful life of a property.  Ordinary repair and maintenance costs that do not extend the useful life of the asset are expensed as incurred.  Costs incurred on a lease turnover due to normal wear and tear by the resident are expensed on the turn.  Recurring capital expenditures typically include appliances, carpeting and flooring, and kitchen/bath cabinets.

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.

Stabilized properties are those properties owned for the entirety of both periods being compared, and, in the case of development or re-development properties, which have achieved a target level of occupancy
