Consequently, this report has been filed for the purpose of providing certain historical financial information for certain acquired properties and pro forma financial information for the Shopping Center Acquisitions. More specific information with respect to each of these acquired properties is as follows: In January 1998, the Company acquired seven properties, in separate transactions, consisting of: (i) Village on the Park I and II, adjoining shopping centers located on South Parker Road in Aurora, Colorado, which are anchored by TJ Maxx and contain 2 approximately 146,000 square feet of GLA; (ii) Phar-Mor Plaza, located on West Gerard Avenue in Englewood, Colorado, which is anchored by Phar-Mor and contains approximately 80,000 square feet of GLA; (iii) Heritage West Shopping Center, located on West Jewel Avenue in Lakewood, Colorado, which is anchored by Safeway and contains approximately 83,000 square feet of GLA; (iv) Quincy Place Shopping Center, located on East Quincy Avenue in Aurora, Colorado, which is anchored by Blockbuster and contains approximately 44,000 square feet of GLA; (v) Spring Creek Shopping Center, located on Spring Circle Drive in Colorado Springs, Colorado, which is anchored by Cub Foods and contains approximately 108,000 square feet of GLA; (vi) East Bank Shopping Center, located on South Parker Road in Aurora, Colorado, which is anchored by Albertson's and Coomers and contains approximately 152,000 square feet of GLA; and (vii) West 38th Street Shopping Center, a single tenant property, located on West 38th Avenue in Denver, Colorado, occupied by Payless Drugs comprising approximately 18,000 square feet of GLA. These properties were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $43.9 million, including the assumption of approximately $1.4 million and $2.8 million of mortgage debt encumbering Phar-Mor Plaza and Quincy Place Shopping Center, respectively. In February 1998, the Company acquired The Shoppes at West Melbourne, located on West New Haven Avenue in West Melbourne, Florida, for a purchase price of approximately $11.0 million. The shopping center contains approximately 148,000 square feet of GLA and is anchored by Service Merchandise and Marshalls. In March 1998, the Company acquired three properties, in separate transactions, consisting of (i) Marshalls Plaza, (ii) South Plains Plaza and (iii) Poca Fiesta Shopping Center. Marshalls Plaza, located at the intersection of Oaklawn Avenue and Bald Hill Road in Cranston, Rhode Island, is anchored by Marshalls and Bob's Stores and contains approximately 118,000 square feet of GLA. South Plains Plaza, located on Slide Road in Lubbock, Texas, is anchored by PetsMart and Office Max and contains approximately 108,000 square feet of GLA. Poca Fiesta Shopping Center, located on Southern Avenue in Mesa, Arizona, is anchored by Ross Stores, and contains approximately 147,000 square feet of GLA. These properties were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $33.5 million, including the assumption of approximately $6.6 million and $10.0 million of mortgage debt encumbering South Plains Plaza and Poca Fiesta Shopping Center, respectively. In April 1998, the Company acquired Wellington Park Shopping Center and the Phar-Mor building, in separate transactions, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $14.6 million. Wellington Park Shopping Center, located on Tryon Road in Cary, North Carolina, is anchored by Lowe's Grocery and contains approximately 103,000 square feet of GLA. The Phar-Mor building, located on Haywood Road in Greenville, South Carolina, is a 60,000 square foot building adjacent to a property previously acquired by the Company in December 1997 and is occupied by Phar-Mor. 3 In May 1998, the Company acquired two properties, Bayshore Gardens Shopping Center and Lafayette Marketplace, in separate transactions, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $33.3 million, which included the issuance of partnership units valued at approximately $5.0 million in connection with the Bayshore Gardens acquisition. Bayshore Gardens Shopping Center, located on Flamingo Boulevard in Bradenton, Florida, is anchored by Publix and TJ Maxx, and contains approximately 163,000 square feet of GLA. The Lafayette Marketplace, located on State Road 38 East in Lafayette, Indiana, is anchored by Michael's and contains approximately 214,000 square feet of GLA. Management believes that the current annualized net cash flow generated by these recently acquired properties provides a weighted average annualized yield of approximately 9.8% on the Company's investment in such properties. Retail Properties Acquisition - As reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 1998, the Company, through an affiliated entity, acquired fee interests in three properties from a retailer in the Chicago, Illinois market comprising approximately 516,000 square feet of GLA for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $23.7 million. These properties include approximately 70,000 square feet of showroom space and adjoining warehouses of approximately 100,000 square feet at each location. Simultaneous with this transaction, the Company leased, to a national furniture retailer, the showroom portion of each property under individual long-term leases. The Company is currently planning the redevelopment of the warehouse portion of each property. Financial statement information required under Item 7 of Form 8-K is not required in connection with the retail properties acquisition since these properties acquired were non-operating rental real estate assets owned by a retailer and not a business with financial statements and information of the type required by Item 7. 4 Item 7.

Certain Acquired Properties The Combined Historical Summary of Revenue and Certain Operating Expenses for the year ended December 31, 1997 relates to the operations of the following certain acquired properties (the "Certain Acquired Properties"), while under ownership previous to Kimco Realty Corporation and Subsidiaries. Property Name Location - ------------- -------- Village on the Park I and II Aurora, Colorado Phar-Mor Plaza Englewood, Colorado Heritage West Shopping Center Lakewood, Colorado Quincy Place Shopping Center Aurora, Colorado Spring Creek Shopping Center Colorado Springs, Colorado East Bank Shopping Center Aurora, Colorado West 38th Street Shopping Center Denver, Colorado Marshalls Plaza Cranston, Rhode Island South Plains Plaza Lubbock, Texas Poca Fiesta Shopping Center Mesa, Arizona 2. Basis of Presentation The Combined Historical Summary has been prepared on the accrual method of accounting. Certain operating expenses include operating and maintenance costs, real estate taxes, and insurance expense relating to the operation of the Certain Acquired Properties. In accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, mortgage interest, depreciation and general and administrative expenses have been excluded, as such costs are dependent upon a particular owner, purchase price or other financial agreements. 3. Revenue Recognition Minimum revenues from rental property are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. The future minimum revenues from rental property under the terms of all noncancellable tenant leases are approximately as follows: 1998 $8,010,000 1999 $7,221,000 2000 $6,427,000 2001 $5,607,000 2002 $4,121,000 Thereafter $11,040,000 9 KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES ESTIMATES OF NET INCOME AND FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS OF CERTAIN ACQUIRED PROPERTIES (Unaudited) The following represents an estimate of the net income and funds from operations expected to be generated from the operation of the Certain Acquired Properties based upon the Combined Historical Summary of Revenue and Certain Operating Expenses of Certain Acquired Properties for the year ended December 31, 1997. These estimated results do not purport to represent results of operations for these properties in the future and were prepared on the basis described in the accompanying notes which should be read in conjunction herewith. Estimated Net Income Excess of revenue over certain operating expenses $ 7,252,957 Less: Estimated depreciation (Note 1) (1,586,828) =========== Estimated net income $ 5,666,129 =========== Estimated Funds from Operations Estimated net income $ 5,666,129 Add: Estimated depreciation (Note 1) 1,586,828 ----------- Estimated funds from operations $ 7,252,957 =========== 10 KIMCO REALTY COPRORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO ESTIMATES OF NET INCOME AND FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS OF CERTAIN ACQUIRED PROPERTIES 1. Basis of Presentation Depreciation has been estimated based upon an allocation of the purchase prices of the Certain Acquired Properties to land (20%) and building (80%) and assuming a 39 year useful life applied on a straight-line method. No income taxes have been provided because the Company is organized and operates in such a manner so as to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). Accordingly, the Company generally will not pay Federal income taxes provided that distributions to its stockholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. 2. Acquisition Considerations In assessing the properties acquired, the Company's management considered the existing tenancies, which are the primary revenue source, the occupancy rates, which averaged 97.3% on the dates of acquisition, the competitive nature of the markets and comparative rental rates. Furthermore, current and anticipated maintenance and repair costs, real estate taxes and capital improvement requirements were evaluated. Management is not aware of any material factors that would cause the reported financial information in the accompanying Combined Historical Summary of Revenue and Certain Operating Expenses and Estimates of Net Income and Funds from Operations of Certain Acquired Properties to be misleading. 11 KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET AND STATEMENTS OF INCOME The accompanying Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 1998 gives effect to (i) the purchase of four shopping center properties acquired by the Company during April and May 1998, (ii) the issuance of an aggregate 2,259,020 shares of the Company's common stock during April 1998, in four separate transactions, consisting of a primary public offering priced at $36.0625 per share and three private placements priced at $36.0625, $36.625 and $36.25 per share and (iii) the issuance of partnership units valued at approximately $5.0 million in connection with the Bayshore Gardens acquisition, as if these properties had been acquired and the common shares and partnership units were issued as of March 31, 1998. The accompanying Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the three months ended March 31, 1998 assume the Shopping Center Acquisitions had occurred as of January 1, 1997.

Also, they may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved in the future. The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and Statements of Income should be read in conjunction with Kimco Realty Corporation's audited financial statements as of December 31, 1997 and for the year then ended (which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997), and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 1998 and for the three months then ended (which are included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 1998) and the accompanying notes thereto. 12 KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET MARCH 31, 1998 --------------- (Unaudited) PRO FORMA AS REPORTED ADJUSTMENTS PRO FORMA ----------------- ------------- ---------------- Assets: Real estate, net of accumulated depreciation $ 1,311,322,749 $ 47,985,000 $ 1,359,307,749 Investment in retail store leases 15,539,477 -
