It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

FORM 10-Q AMREP CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Page 1 of 2) July 31, 1997 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 increased approximately 10% from the same period last year, reflecting increased revenues from both real estate operations and magazine circulation operations. Revenues from housing sales increased approximately 11%, resulting primarily from an increase in the number of homes delivered from 143 to 163 as a result of projects opened in the second half of fiscal 1997. The average selling price of homes closed decreased slightly from $119,300 in 1997 to $115,800 in 1998. The gross margin on housing sales also declined slightly from 16% to 14%, which reflected that a higher proportion the of homes sold in New Mexico this quarter were from a new development with smaller, less expensive homes as well as the fact that, particularly in New Mexico, there were cost increases without a commensurate increase in selling prices. Revenues and related gross profit from land sales increased due to an increase in the level of commercial and industrial lot sales, which can vary from year to year as a result of the nature and timing of specific transactions. Thus, prior and current results are not an indication of amounts that may be expected to occur in future periods. As a result of all these factors, gross profit from combined housing and land sales was comparable in both years. Revenues from magazine circulation operations increased approximately 4% in the first quarter this year as compared to the same period last year due to an increase in the Fulfillment Services division. Revenues from Fulfillment Services increased approximately 7% due primarily to revenues resulting from a new contract with a major publisher obtained during the second quarter of fiscal 1997. Revenues from Newsstand Distribution Services were comparable to those of the prior year. As previously disclosed, a major realignment of industry relationships in the distribution of magazines developed during 1996 which has led to a substantial reduction in the number of wholesalers and adversely impacted Kable's sales and profits and which, in some cases, has allowed wholesalers to delay payments to Kable. Magazine circulation operating expenses for both divisions were generally comparable in both periods. As a result of these factors, operating income from magazine circulation operations increased by approximately $700,000 in the first quarter this year as compared to last year. Real Estate commissions and selling expenses increased by 24%, primarily as the result of additional marketing costs associated with the number of projects open for sale compared to last year, and to increased commissions associated with the higher number of housing sales. FORM 10-Q AMREP CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Page 2 of 2) July 31, 1997 Interest expense increased in both real estate and magazine operations in the first quarter this year due to higher average borrowings and interest rates, since a large portion of the Company's borrowings are related to the prime rate, partially offset by an increase in the amount of capitalized real estate interest. FINANCIAL CONDITION - ------------------- Receivables from magazine circulation operations increased from $43.0 million at April 30, 1997 to $54.4 million at July 31, 1997, resulting partially from the timing of monthly billings as well as from delays in payments experienced by Kable from wholesalers that the Company believes is partially a result of the industry consolidation issue as discussed above. As a result, cash decreased by $6.9 million and accounts payable increased by approximately $4.2 million at July 31, 1997 compared to April 30, 1997. At July 31, 1997, total borrowings amounted to $77.5 million compared to $79.3 million at April 30, 1997.
