                                    PART I
 
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
 
  Alexander Haagen Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"),
is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust. The
Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition,
development and redevelopment of retail shopping centers in the Western United
States.
 
  As of December 31, 1997, the Company owned a portfolio comprised of
interests in 46 retail shopping centers (the "Properties"). See "Item 2--
Properties." All of the Properties and assets in the Company's portfolio are
held and operated by Alexander Haagen Properties Operating Partnership, L.P.,
a California limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership" or "OP") and
Alexander Haagen Properties Finance Partnership, L.P. (the "Finance
Partnership"). The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating
Partnership and owns a 79.1% interest therein. The Company owns 100% of the
Finance Partnership and is its sole general partner while the Operating
Partnership is its sole Limited Partner. The Company conducts substantially
all of its operations through the Operating Partnership and generally has
full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in the management
and control of the Operating Partnership.
 
  On June 1, 1997 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with LF
Strategic Realty Investors, L.P. and Prometheus Western Retail, LLC,
affiliates of Lazard Freres Real Estate Investors, LLC, (together "LFREI"),
providing for LFREI to invest a total of up to $235 million in Common Stock of
the Company (the "Transaction"). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement the
Company will sell an aggregate of 15,666,666 shares of Common Stock to LFREI
at a price of $15.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $235
million (the "Total Equity Commitment"). The purchase price per share was
determined as a result of arm's length negotiations between the Company and
its advisors and LFREI and its advisors. On August 14, 1997, the Stockholders
of the Company approved the Transaction.
 
  As of December 31, 1997, the Company had sold 4,006,434 shares, to LFREI
under the terms of the Transaction for aggregate proceeds of $60.1 million. On
February 13, 1998 the Company sold an additional 2,700,000 shares to LFREI. As
of February 13, 1998, LFREI is obligated to purchase a further 8,960,232
Shares of Common Stock for aggregate proceeds of $134.4 million (the
"Remaining Equity Commitment"). As of such date, LFREI owned approximately
35.4% of the outstanding Common Stock.
 
  The Company must sell the Remaining Equity Commitment not later than
February 14, 1999. If the Company has not drawn the Remaining Equity
Commitment by such date, LFREI will have the right on such date to purchase
such shares from the Company, at a price of $15.00 per share. If LFREI
acquires all of the shares represented by the Remaining Equity Commitment (and
assuming no other change in the number of outstanding shares), LFREI will own
approximately 56.3% of the outstanding Common Stock (37.9% on a Diluted
Basis).
 
  Subject to certain restrictions, in the event that the Company issues or
sells shares of capital stock for cash, LFREI will be entitled to purchase or
subscribe for, either as part of such issuance or in a concurrent issuance,
that portion of the total number of shares to be issued equal to LFREI's
proportionate holdings of Common Stock prior to such issuance (but not to
exceed 37.5% of the offering).
 
  For a period of five years following stockholder approval (the "Standstill
Period") and any Standstill Extension Term, LFREI and its affiliates may not
(i) acquire beneficial ownership of more than 49.9% of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock, on an Adjusted Fully Diluted Basis (as defined below), (ii)
sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock except in
accordance with certain specified limitations (including a requirement that
the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, approve any transfer in a
negotiated transaction that would result in the transferee beneficially owning
more than 9.8% of the Company's capital stock). As used herein, the term
Adjusted Fully Diluted Basis shall mean on a Diluted Basis, except that shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Company's outstanding
convertible debt or upon exercise of options granted under management benefit
plans shall not be included. After giving effect to the sale
 
                                       1

 
of 15,666,666 shares to LFREI, and assuming no other change in the number of
outstanding shares, LFREI will own 49.0% of the Common Stock on an Adjusted
Fully Diluted Basis. In the event that the number of outstanding shares were
to increase for any reason (including as a result of issuance of Common Stock
upon conversion or exercise of the outstanding convertible debt or management
stock options), then LFREI would be allowed to acquire additional shares of
Common Stock, up to 49.9% on an Adjusted Fully Diluted Basis. In addition to
the above, LFREI has the right to nominate four members to the Company's Board
of Directors. Further, LFREI is entitled to receive access to certain
operating statements and other financial reports used in operating the Company
on a monthly basis.
 
  On November 24, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Separation
Agreement") with Alexander Haagen, Sr., Charlotte Haagen and Alexander Haagen,
III (collectively the "Haagen Family") in connection with their retirement
from the Company. Under the terms of the Separation Agreement, the Haagen
Family received $2.7 million in cash, vesting of all granted stock options and
restricted stock awards, and the granting and vesting of previously committed
restricted stock awards. In addition, for certain defined periods the Company
agreed to continue to provide the Haagen Family certain medical benefits and
administrative assistance. During 1997, the Company recorded a non-recurring
charge of $9.4 million in connection with the Separation Agreement. Further,
the Company has agreed to purchase, or cause to have purchased, substantially
all of the Haagen Family's ownership interests in the Company on May 25, 1999.
 
  Through December 31, 1997, leasing and other property management functions
were conducted at all of the Properties by Haagen Property Management, Inc., a
California corporation ("HPMI"), pursuant to management agreements between the
Operating Partnership, the Finance Partnership, and HPMI. As of December 31,
1997, HPMI employed a staff of 102 full-time real estate professionals with
extensive experience, knowledge of local markets and an established track
record with national, regional and local retailers. The Company believes that
the expertise and relationships developed by these professionals enhance the
Company's ability to attract and retain high quality tenants. The Company
owned all of the outstanding non-voting preferred stock of HPMI, representing
a 95% economic interest in HPMI. All of the outstanding voting common stock of
HPMI, representing a 5% economic interest in HPMI, was held by certain
executive officers of the Company. On December 31, 1997, the Company acquired
the remaining 5% economic interest in HPMI by acquiring all of the voting
common stock of HPMI. As of such date, all of the employees of HPMI became
employees of the Operating Partnership. All of the assets and liabilities of
HPMI have been consolidated into the Company as of December 31, 1997.
 
  The Company operates so as to qualify as a real estate investment trust
("REIT") under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code. Under those
sections of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company must distribute annually to
its stockholders at least 95% of its taxable income and must meet certain
other asset and income tests. Dividends to stockholders from a qualified REIT
are deductible by such REIT in calculating its income tax liability. As a
result, pre-tax income of the Company flows through to its stockholders who
are taxed on the income on their individual income tax returns, thus
eliminating the "double taxation" inherent in regular corporations. REITs are
subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the
Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be
subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum
tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate rates. Even if the Company
qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain
federal, state and local taxes on its income and property.
 
  The Company competes with commercial developers, real estate companies,
pension funds and other real estate investors, many of which have greater
financial resources than the Company, in seeking land for development,
properties for acquisition and tenants for leasing of properties. There are
numerous shopping centers that compete with the Properties in attracting
retailers to lease space. In addition, retailers at the Properties face
increasing competition from outlet malls, discount shopping clubs, direct mail
and telemarketing.
 
                                       2

 
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
 
  As of December 31, 1997, the Properties consisted of 22
neighborhood/community shopping centers, 8 promotional/power centers, 2
regional malls and 14 single tenant facilities, containing in the aggregate
approximately 9.0 million square feet of total gross leasable area ("GLA").
Approximately 7.2 million square feet of GLA is owned by the Company, and the
balance is owned by certain anchor retailers. The Company believes that
management's attention to quality, design and aesthetics, tenant mix and other
specific community needs position a number of the Properties among the premier
retail shopping centers in their respective communities. The majority of the
Properties are located throughout Southern California, including 14 in
Los Angeles County, 5 in San Diego County, 3 in Orange County, 2 in San
Bernardino County, 2 in Riverside County, 1 in Imperial County and 1 in
Ventura County. Based on published industry sources, the Company believes that
the geographic concentration of the Properties establishes it as one of the
leading fully integrated owners, managers and developers of retail shopping
centers in the Western United States. In addition to its Southern California
Properties the Company has 7 Properties in Northern and Central California, 3
Properties in Arizona, 3 Properties in Oregon and 5 Properties in Washington.
 
  The Company's single tenant facilities range in size from approximately
36,800 square feet of total GLA to approximately 135,000 square feet of total
GLA. The Company's neighborhood/community shopping centers and
promotional/power centers range in size from approximately 66,000 square feet
of total GLA to approximately 626,000 square feet of total GLA. The Company's
regional malls range in size from approximately 810,000 square feet of GLA to
approximately 1,232,000 square feet of GLA).
 
  The Properties are designed to attract local and regional area customers and
are typically anchored by one or more nationally or regionally known
retailers. Depending on the market focus of a specific Property, major
retailers at a Property may include value-oriented discount stores,
supermarkets, membership warehouses, traditional department stores, fashion-
oriented department stores, shops or well-known specialty retailers. Several
of the Properties contain an entertainment component such as a theater
multiplex. Anchor leases are typically for initial terms of 10 to 35 years,
with one or more renewal options available to the lessee upon expiration of
the initial term. By contrast, smaller shop leases are typically for 5 to 10
year terms. The longer term of the anchor leases helps to protect the Company
against significant vacancies and to insure the presence of anchor retailers
who draw consumers to the Company's retail centers. The shorter term of the
smaller shop leases allows the Company to adjust rental rates for non-anchor
store space on a regular basis and upgrade the overall tenant mix. Anchor
leases are generally for lower base rents than leases for smaller shop
tenants. The lower base rents paid by anchor retailers may be offset, in part,
through periodic escalations and/or the payment of percentage rents. Certain
anchor retailers at some of the Properties occupy space not owned by the
Company and therefore do not pay base rent to the Company.
 
  During 1997, the Company substantially completed construction at its two
Redevelopment Properties. At Covina Town Square, the former Sears was
demolished and replaced with a 95,150 square foot building which has been
leased to AMC Theatres that opened for business in February 1998. Medford
Center in Medford, Oregon was transformed from an enclosed mall to an open air
power center comprising 340,867 square feet of GLA, of which 84,000 is still
under construction.
 
                                       3

 
  Also, during 1997, the Company implemented an acquisition strategy
designated to expand its portfolio of unenclosed anchored shopping centers in
the Western United States. As a result of its acquisition strategy, the
Company acquired 8 properties in 1997, aggregating approximately 848,000
square feet of GLA, with an aggregate purchase price of $91 million. The
acquisitions consisted of the following:
 


                                                                         COMPANY
                                                                          OWNED

  Subsequent to December 31, 1997 the Company acquired eight properties,
aggregating approximately 1,052,000 square feet of GLA, with an aggregate
purchase price of $114 million. The acquisitions consist of the following:
 


                                                                        COMPANY

  The acquisitions were principally funded through proceeds from the sale of
common stock to LFREI and borrowings on the Company's Secured Line of Credit.
 
  During 1996, the Company sold 2 of its single tenant facilities for
aggregate net proceeds of $6.3 million. In June 1996, the Company sold the
Vons market located in Ventura, California for $2.8 million. In October 1996,
the Company sold its property in Rancho Cucamonga for $3.5 million. The
property was leased to Dayton-Hudson and had been vacant for several years.
The proceeds from the sales were used to reduce borrowings on the Company's
credit facility and to retire mortgage indebtedness secured by one of the
properties.
 
  Thirty-seven of the Properties are owned by the Company in fee and 9 are
held by the Company under long-term ground leases. Included in the long-term
ground leases are the Partially-Owned Properties, in which the Company owns,
directly or indirectly, partnership interests (75% in Kenneth Hahn Plaza and
34% in Vermont-Slauson Shopping Center).

DEVELOPMENT PROPERTIES
 
  Certain properties had not completed their initial leasing plans at the date
of the Company's initial public offering; Media City Center, Baldwin Hills
Crenshaw Plaza, Empire Center, Montebello Town Square and The City Center (the
"Development Properties"). Pursuant to an agreement among the Operating
Partnership and certain limited partners that transferred the Development
Properties to the Operating Partnership such OP limited partners had the right
to receive additional partnership units in the Operating Partnership ("OP
Units") based upon the increase in net annualized cash flow from the
Development Properties between October 31, 1993 and the expiration of the
applicable lease-up period for each development property. The increase in net
annualized cash flow was based on leases signed by March 31 with the tenant
open and paying rent by June 30 of the respective lease-up periods.
 
  The lease-up period for Montebello Town Square and The City Center expired
on March 31, 1995 and resulted in the issuance of an additional 113,506 OP
Units to the OP Limited Partners. In connection with this issuance of
additional OP Units, all of the leases were executed by March 31, 1995, with
tenants paying rent by June 30, 1995, including certain leases where tenants
were not open by June 30, 1995. The independent directors determined that it
was appropriate to issue additional OP Units for all of these leases.
 
                                      13

 
  The lease-up period for Media City Center, Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza and
Empire Center expired on March 31, 1996. In connection with the completion of
construction at Empire Center, certain improvements constructed during the
lease-up period were not leased as of March 31, 1996. The independent
directors determined that, the cost of construction of such improvements
should be borne by the Company for purposes of calculating the issuance of
additional OP Units for Empire Center and no OP Units would be issuable to the
limited partners in connection with such unleased improvements. During the
year ended December 31, 1995, the opening of approximately 38,000 square feet
of retail and restaurant space at Media City Center, principally comprising a
30,000 square foot Virgin Megastore, and the 57,000 square foot Sony/Magic
Johnson Theatres at Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza, represented expansion of the
Development Properties not contemplated at the IPO. Therefore, no additional
OP Units were issued in connection with such expansions.
 
  On August 12, 1996, the Independent members of the Board of Directors
approved the issuance of 3,242,379 OP Units to the limited partners. The
market capitalization of the OP was thereby increased by $41.7 million based
upon the stock price as of August 12, 1996. The minority interest in the OP
was thereby increased from 8% to approximately 26% effective July 1, 1996. As
a result of the issuance of the 3,242,379 OP Units, minority interest was
increased and additional paid-in capital decreased by approximately $31.5
million. The issuance of such additional OP Units in the third quarter of 1996
did not have a dilutive effect on net income per share.
 
PARTIALLY-OWNED PROPERTIES
 
  The Operating Partnership owns partnership interests in the owners of the
two "Partially-Owned Properties." The Operating Partnership owns a 75%
managing general partnership interest in the partnership that owns Kenneth
Hahn Plaza and an 85% managing general partnership interest in Haagen-Central
Partnership, the general partnership which is the managing general partner of,
and holds a 40% interest in, the partnership that owns Vermont-Slauson
Shopping Center. Therefore, the Operating Partnership holds the equivalent of
a 34% interest in Vermont-Slauson Shopping Center.
 
  The Operating Partnership is the managing general partner of each such
partnership, with control over day-to-day operations of the Partially-Owned
Properties. The Company may have certain fiduciary responsibilities to its
outside partners which it will need to consider when making decisions relating
to the Partially-Owned Properties. The consent of the Company's outside
partners may be required for any sale, transfer or encumbrance of the
Partially-Owned Properties. In addition, the sale, transfer, assignment or
pledge of partnership interests in the partnerships which own the Partially-
Owned Properties require the prior written consent of the other partners or
are subject to certain rights of first refusal.
 
OTHER ASSETS OF THE COMPANY
 
  The Company's interest in Media City Center (Burbank, California) includes
an interest in two promissory notes issued by the Redevelopment Burbank Agency
of the City of Burbank (the "Burbank Agency") which mature on February 1,
2016. The first note is unsecured and was issued by the Burbank Agency on
November 15, 1989 with an $18.5 million principal amount and bears interest at
9.25% per annum. The note is nonrecourse to the Burbank Agency. On each semi-
annual payment date the Burbank Agency is required to make payments on the
note to the extent of 70% of the real property tax increment generated by
Media City Center, with certain exceptions. The second note is secured by
certain tax revenues and was issued by the Burbank Agency on December 6, 1990
with a $33 million initial principal amount and bears interest at 9.25% per
annum. The note is nonrecourse to the Burbank Agency but is secured by certain
real property tax increments generated by the property as well as certain
sales and use taxes generated by the property. On each semi-annual payment
date the Burbank Agency is required to make payments on the note only to the
extent of such tax items, less rent paid by Macy's (formerly Bullock's). Any
amount which accrues under the notes that is not required to be paid is added
to the principal amount of such notes. Any principal or interest due on either
of the notes which has not been paid (due to the permitted reductions and
limitation on payments described above) as of their respective maturity dates
will be forgiven, and it is not likely that the full face amount of the notes
and the interest thereon will be paid by such maturity dates. During the years
ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the Company recognized income of
approximately $2,656,000, $2,797,000 and $2,756,000, respectively, pursuant to
the terms of such agency note agreements.
 
                                      14

 
  Under similar commitments from the Community Redevelopment Agencies of the
Cities of Fullerton and Chino, other income was recognized for the years ended
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 from Fullerton Town Center of $48,000,
$57,000, and $59,000 respectively, and Country Fair Shopping Center of
147,000, $146,000 and $122,000 respectively. Such commitments expire in 2013
and 2001 for Fullerton and Chino, respectively, and any balance owing to the
Company at expiration will be forgiven and discharged.
 
  Such commitments have not been recorded as assets in the Company's financial
statements as they are contingent in nature.
 
ENVIRONMENTAL AND OTHER REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
 
  Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an
owner or operator of real property may become liable for the costs of removal
or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on or in its
properties. Such laws may impose such liability without regard to whether the
Company knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or
toxic substances. The costs of investigation, removal, or remediation of such
substances may be substantial and the presence of such substances, or the
failure to properly remediate such substances, may adversely affect the
Owner's ability to sell such real estate or to borrow using such real estate
as collateral. In connection with its ownership and operation of properties,
the Company may be potentially liable under such laws and may incur costs in
responding to such liabilities. No assurance can be given that any existing
environmental studies with respect to any of the Properties reveal all
environmental liabilities, that any prior owner or tenant of a Property did
not create any material environmental condition not known to the Company, that
future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose any material
environmental liability, or that a material environmental condition does not
otherwise exist as to any one or more Properties.
 
  Pursuant to an Environmental Indemnity Agreement the transferors of the 36
properties acquired at the time of the Company's formation in December 1993
(the "Original Properties") have agreed to provide certain indemnities to the
Company for environmental liabilities that may arise with respect to any
contamination on or affecting the condition of the Original Properties which
was known as of December 27, 1993 or which becomes known after December 27,
1993 as a result of additional environmental testing commenced prior to
December 27, 1993. Pursuant to the transfer documents with respect to Rosedale
Village, Gresham Town Fair, Medford Center and LaVerne Towne Center (the "1994
Acquisition Properties"), the transferors of such properties provided certain
indemnities with respect to environmental liabilities to the Company. Because
responsibility for such matters is being retained by the transferors no
liabilities have been recorded in the financial statements of the Company with
respect to such matters. No environmental costs were incurred by the Company
during the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995.
 
  The Properties are subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990
(the "ADA"). The ADA has separate compliance requirements for "public
accommodations" and "commercial facilities" but generally requires that all
public facilities be made accessible to people with disabilities. These
requirements became effective in 1992. Although the Company believes that the
Properties are substantially in compliance with the present requirements of
the ADA, the Company may incur additional costs of complying with the ADA in
the future. However, the Company does not believe that such costs of
compliance will have a material effect on the Company.
 
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
  The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in
the ordinary course of business. These matters are generally covered by
insurance. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with
certainty, management believes, based on currently available information, that
the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on
the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
 
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
 
  During the fourth quarter of 1997, no matters were submitted for a vote of
stockholders of the Company.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
 
  The Company's Common Stock is listed on the American Stock Exchange ("ASE")
under the symbol "ACH." At February 28, 1998, the Company had approximately
200 stockholders of record and approximately 6,000 beneficial owners. The
following table sets forth quarterly high and low closing sales prices of the
Common Stock reported on the ASE and the dividends paid by the Company with
respect to each period.

  Distributions included a return of capital component of approximately 72%,
76% and 60%, for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. All distributions will be made by the Company at the discretion
of the Board of Directors and will depend on the earnings of the Company, its
financial condition and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems
relevant. In order to qualify for the beneficial tax treatment accorded to
real estate investment trusts under the Internal Revenue Code, the Company is
required to make distributions to holders of its shares which will be at least
95% of the Company's "real estate investment trust taxable income," as defined
in Section 857 of the Code.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
  The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the "Selected
Financial Data" and the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes
thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
 Comparison of the year ended December 31, 1997 to the year ended December 31,
1996.
 
  Operating revenues increased by $1.3 million to $89.0 million for the year
ended December 31, 1997 from $87.7 million for the year ended December 31,
1996. The increase was primarily a result of higher occupancy levels at Media
City Center and Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza and the acquisition of eight
properties during the third and fourth quarters of 1997. These increases were
partially offset by the loss of revenue at the former Sears store at Covina
Town Square and the loss of revenue resulting from the closure of the IKEA
Store at Empire Center.
 
  Interest expense increased by $0.6 million from $35.5 million for the year
ended December 31, 1996 to $36.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1997.
The increase is principally a function of borrowings on the Company's line of
credit to finance its recent acquisitions.
 
  Property operating costs were consistent from December 31, 1997 to 1996
decreasing from $25.6 million to $25.5 million.
 
  Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.2 million from $17.1
million for the year ended December 31, 1996 to $18.3 million for the year
ended December 31, 1997. This increase was a result of an overall increase in
investment in rental properties.
 
  During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company recorded a $9.4 million non-
recurring charge related to the Separation Agreement. This consists of $2.7
million in cash payment made in January 1998, vesting of outstanding stock
options and restricted stock grants, granting and vesting of previously
committed restricted stock awards and the value attributed to the Company's
agreement to repurchase, or cause to have repurchased, substantially all of
the Haagen Family's ownership in the Company at a minimum price of $17 per
share.
 
  During 1996 the Company recorded a non-recurring non-cash charge of $6.9
million to increase the reserve against the receivable for straight-line
rents. Also in 1996 the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $2.1 million
related to the write-off of the net book value of a building which was
demolished.
 
                                      18

 
  During 1996, the Company sold two single tenant facilities for a net gain on
sale of $2.4 million.
 
  During 1997, the Company incurred an extraordinary loss on the early
extinguishment of debt of $422,000 related to the write-off of unamortized
deferred financing costs.
 
  Income before other items decreased by $0.5 million from $4.4 million for
the year ended December 31, 1996 to $3.9 million for the year ended December
31, 1997 for the reasons stated above.
 
 Comparison of the year ended December 31, 1996, to the year ended December
31, 1995.
 
  Operating revenues increased by $6.4 million to $87.7 million for the year
ended December 31, 1996 from $81.3 million for the year ended December 31,
1995. The increase was primarily a result of the lease-up of the Development
Properties, comprising Media City Center, Empire Center and Baldwin Hills
Crenshaw Plaza. However, improvements in the economic performance of the
properties were mitigated by the Company recording reserves to offset the
straight-lining of contractual rent increases. No Straight-line rental revenue
was recognized in the year ended December 31, 1996, compared to approximately
$1.3 million in the year ended December 31, 1995.
 
  Interest expense increased by $3.2 million from $32.3 million for the year
ended December 31, 1995 to $35.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1996.
The increase is principally a function of borrowings on the Company's line of
credit to finance construction and redevelopment activity at various
properties.
 
  Property operating costs decreased by $.5 million to $25.6 million for the
year ended December 31, 1996 from $26.1 million for the year ended December
31, 1995. The decrease is a result of several factors including additional bad
debt expense recorded in 1995 at certain of the properties.
 
  Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $2.9 million from $20.0
million for the year ended December 31, 1995 to $17.1 million for the year
ended December 31, 1996. Depreciation decreased by $4.8 million as a result of
a change in the depreciable lives of the properties. The Company concluded
that in order to more appropriately align the depreciable lives with the
economic lives of the properties the lives should generally be increased to 40
years from previously utilized lives ranging from 20 to 31.5 years. This
decrease was offset by a $1.9 million increase as a result of an overall
increase in investment in rental properties.
 
  General and administrative expenses declined by $0.2 million from $5.3
million for the year ended December 31, 1995 to $5.1 million for the year
ended December 31, 1996 principally as a result of the write-off in the first
quarter of 1995 of costs related to a potential secondary offering.
 
  During 1996, the Company sold two single tenant facilities for $6.3 million
in cash, resulting in a net gain on sale of $2.4 million.
 
  During the first quarter of 1996, the Company reassessed the recoverability
of straight-line contractual rent increases as a result of the continuing
mergers and consolidations within the retail industry and the financial
difficulties of certain retailers. Accordingly, the Company recorded a non-
recurring non-cash charge of $6.9 million to increase the reserve against the
receivable for straight-line rents. Additionally, the Company has fully
reserved against unbilled deferred rents in 1996. The company believes this to
be an appropriate and conservative approach to account for the straight-lining
of contractual rent increases in the current retail environment. The impact of
this change was a reduction in revenues recognized in 1996 of approximately
$1.3 million.
 
  On October 31, 1996, the Sears store in the Covina Town Square power center
(Covina, California) vacated its premises. Annual rental revenues received
from Sears were $851,000. The Company has signed a lease with AMC Theatres for
a 30 screen multiplex theater on the former Sears site; however, through the
completion of the theater (in February, 1998) the impact from the loss of the
Sears revenues was approximately $0.015 per share on a quarterly basis. In
connection with signing the lease with AMC Theatres, the Company recorded a
non-recurring non-cash charge of $2.1 million to write-off the net book value
of the demolished Sears building. Covina Town Square is a 422,000 square foot
power center; other tenants include Home Depot, Petsmart and Staples.
 
                                      19

 
  The non-recurring items detailed in the above three paragraphs aggregate to
a net charge of $6.6 million.
 
  Loss from operations before minority interests decreased by $0.1 million
from a loss of $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1995 to a loss of
$2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 for the reasons stated
above.

  During 1997 the Company signed leases for approximately 374,000 square feet,
including 116,000 square feet at its Redevelopment Properties. Such signed
leases resulted in an increase in the overall rent per square foot of the
Company's portfolio to $10.97 per square foot at December 31, 1997 from $10.61
per square foot at December 31, 1996.
 
  In the first quarter of 1997 the non-owned IKEA store and several other
tenants at Empire Center (Fontana, California) vacated their premises. The
leased space at Empire Center decreased to 61.7% at December 31, 1997. Leased
space at the Company's aggregate portfolio decreased to 94.6% from 95.8% at
December 31, 1997.
 
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
 
  The Company considers Funds From Operations ("FFO") to be an alternative
measure of the performance of an equity REIT since such measure does not
recognize depreciation and amortization expenses as operating expenses. FFO
was originally defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trusts
 
                                      20

 
("NAREIT") as net income plus depreciation and amortization, less gains on
sales of properties. In a March 1995 white paper, NAREIT adopted a revised
definition of FFO. The principal change is that the revised definition does
not permit depreciation or amortization of non-real estate assets to be added
back in computing FFO. The Company historically added back amortization of
deferred financing costs in computing FFO. Additionally, the revised
definition also permits FFO to be adjusted for significant non-recurring
items.
 
  The Company adopted the revised definition of FFO commencing January 1,
1996. The Company has restated its FFO for comparable periods as if the new
definition had been adopted at that date. Management concurs with NAREIT in
believing that reductions for the depreciation and amortization of real estate
and its related costs are not meaningful in evaluating income-producing real
estate.
 
  The Company computes FFO on both a basic and a diluted basis. The diluted
basis assumes the conversion of the convertible and exchangeable debentures
into shares of common stock as well as other common stock equivalents. The
following table summarizes the Company's computation of FFO and provides
certain additional disclosures (dollars in thousands):

  The Company considers any space that was vacant or unbuilt at the date of
its initial public offering to be expansion of its portfolio.
 
  Funds from operations, on a basic basis, increased to $21.9 million for the
year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to $20.9 million for the same period
in 1996. On a diluted basis, assuming conversion of the debentures and other
common stock equivalents, funds from operations increased to $35.8 million
from $34.8 million. The increase in funds from operations is principally a
function of acquisitions and increases in
 
                                      21

 
cash flow at Media City Center and Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza. However,
improvements in the economic performance of the properties were mitigated by
the closure of the IKEA store at Empire Center and the loss of revenue from
the former Sears store at Covina Town Square. During 1997 and 1996, the
Company recorded non-recurring charges of $9.4 million and $6.6 million,
respectively. The 1997 charge related to the retirement of the Haagen Family
while the 1996 charge resulted from an increase to the reserve against the
receivable for straight-line rents, a $2.1 million charge to write-off the net
book value of a building to be demolished, and a net gain on sale of
properties of $2.4 million. Such non-recurring items were not included in the
computation of FFO as the Company considers them to be significant non-
recurring events that if deducted would materially distort the comparative
measurement of Company performance.
 
  Funds from operations do not represent cash flows from operations as defined
by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and should not be considered as an
alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating
performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Further, the
methodology for computing FFO utilized by the Company may differ from that
utilized by other equity REITs and, accordingly may not be comparable to such
other REITs.
 
CASH FLOWS
 
  Net cash provided by operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 was
$22.7 million compared to $22.4 million for the prior year. The principal
reasons for the increase in net cash from operations are discussed in Results
of Operations above.
 
  Net cash used by investing activities increased by $92.8 million to $113.3
million from $20.5 million for the prior year. The increase is a direct result
of the acquisitions made during 1997 of $91.4 million. Net cash provided by
financing activities was $88.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1997,
an increase of $87.9 million from the prior year. This increase includes $58.7
million in proceeds from the sale of common stock to LFREI. In addition, the
Company drew an additional $44 million against its secured line of Credit.
These increases were offset by increased restricted cash requirements, the
costs of obtaining both equity and debt financing and an increase in dividends
and distributions as a result of the issuance of common stock and OP units.
 
  Net cash provided by operations was $22.4 million for the year ended
December 31, 1996, compared to $19.9 million for the year ended December 31,
1995. The principal reasons for the increase in net cash from operations are
discussed in Results of Operations above.
 
  Net cash used by investment activities decreased to $20.5 million for the
year ended December 31, 1996 from $32.1 million for the year ended December
31, 1995. This reflects a decrease in the level of construction and
development activity of $10.3 million, $5.0 million paid in settlement of
certain other liabilities and net proceeds from the sale of two rental
properties of $6.3 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.4
million for the year ended December 31, 1996, a decrease of $10.9 million from
the prior year. This decrease includes $2.6 million in principal re-payments
in connection with the sale of rental property, a decrease in cash generated
from restricted cash of $1.8 million, and a net $6.5 million decrease in net
additional borrowings.
 
LIQUIDITY SOURCES AND REQUIREMENTS
 
  In December 1997, the Operating Partnership entered into a new revolving
line of credit with a maximum borrowing limit of $250 million (the "Credit
Facility"). The Credit Facility will now primarily provide continued funding
for the Company's planned acquisition and redevelopment activities. The Credit
Facility expires in December 2000. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are
secured by first mortgage liens on Montebello Town Square, The City Center,
Media City Center, Empire Center, Medford Center, Pacific Linen Plaza, Ross
Center, Vancouver Park Place, Smitty's Tucson, Frontier Village and Marshalls
Plaza. At February 28, 1998, outstanding borrowings on the Credit Facility
were approximately $101.7 million, with an additional $4.2 million having been
utilized to provide letters of credit.
 
                                      22

 
  To the extent that borrowings under the Credit Facility are less than the
outstanding commitment from LFREI the interest rate will be London Inter-Bank
Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus 100 basis points. To the extent the borrowings
are in excess of the outstanding LFREI commitment such excess will bear
interest at LIBOR plus 137.5 basis points.
 
  Upon conversion to an unsecured facility, borrowings will bear interest at
varying rates based upon the company's leverage ratio and investment grade
rating interest. The range of rates is from 75 to 137.5 basis points over
LIBOR.
 
  On June 1, 1997 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with LF
Strategic Realty Investors, L.P. and Prometheus Western Retail, LLC,
affiliates of Lazard Freres Real Estate Investors, LLC, (together "LFREI"),
providing for LFREI to invest a total of up to $235 million in Common Stock of
the Company (the "Transaction"). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement the
Company will sell an aggregate of 15,666,666 shares of Common Stock to LFREI
at a price of $15.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $235
million (the "Total Equity Commitment"). The purchase price per share was
determined as a result of arm's length negotiations between the Company and
its advisors and LFREI and its advisors.
 
  As of December 31, 1997, the Company had sold 4,006,434 shares, to LFREI
under the terms of the Transaction for aggregate proceeds of $60.1 million. On
February 13, 1998 the Company sold an additional 2,700,000 shares to LFREI for
proceeds of $40.5 million, reducing the Remaining Equity Commitment to
$134.4 million.
 
  Loans maturing of $28.2 million in 1999 and $18.7 million in 2002, as well
as significant amounts due from 2004 to 2015, may require refinancing.
Additionally, the Company's secured line of credit is due in 2000 and the
convertible debentures of $138.6 million and exchangeable debentures of $30.0
million are due in 2001 and 2003, respectively. See "Item 2--Properties." The
Company believes, based on the collateral available within the Properties and
improvements in cash flow at the Redevelopment Properties, that it will be
able to effect such refinancings for the foreseeable future.
 
  The Company anticipates continuing to execute its acquisition and
redevelopment strategy during the next 12 months. The Company believes that
such acquisitions will be funded from the LFREI Equity Commitment, the
Company's Credit Facility, future debt refinancings and financings, and the
issuance of equity.
 
INFLATION
 
  The Company's long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the
adverse impact of inflation on its results from operations. Such provisions
include clauses enabling the Company to receive percentage rents based upon
tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or, in
certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates
during the terms of the leases. Such escalation clauses are often related to
increases in the CPI or similar inflation indices. In addition, many of the
Company's leases are for terms of less than ten years, which permits the
Company to seek to increase rents upon re-rental at market rates if rents are
below then existing market rates. Many of the Company's leases require the
tenants to pay a pro rata share of operating expenses, including common area
maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing the
Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from
inflation.
 
ADOPTION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
  In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information. This statement is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The
Company has not yet analyzed the impact of adopting this statement.
 
                                      23

 
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
 
  The inability of computers, software and other equipment utilizing
microprocessors to recognize and properly process information containing a 2
digit year is commonly referred to as the Year 2000 Compliance issue. As the
year 2000 approaches, such systems may be unable to accurately process certain
date-based information.
 
  As the Company principally relies on third party vendors for its
applications, the Company has communicated with others with whom it does
significant business to determine their Year 2000 Compliance readiness and the
extent to which the Company is vulnerable to any third party Year 2000 issues.
The Company has received statements of compliance from its primary third party
vendors which state that their systems will be in compliance by 1999. However,
there can be no guarantee that the systems of other companies on which the
Company's systems rely will be timely converted, or that a failure to convert
by another company, or a conversion that is incompatible with the Company's
systems, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.
 
  The total cost to the Company of these Year 2000 Compliance activities has
not been and is not anticipated to be material to its financial position or
results of operations in any given year. These costs and the date on which the
Company plans to complete the Year 2000 modifications and testing processes
are based on management's best estimates, which were derived utilizing
numerous assumptions of future events including the continued availability of
certain resources, third party modification plans and other factors. However,
there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be achieved and actual
results could differ from those plans.
 
FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE RESULTS
 
  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations contains certain forward-looking statements that are subject to
risk and uncertainty. Investors and potential investors in the Company's
securities are cautioned that a number of factors could adversely affect the
Company's ability to obtain these results, including (a) the inability to
lease currently vacant space in the Companies properties; (b) the inability of
tenants to pay contractual rent and other expenses; (c) bankruptcies of
tenants; (d) decisions by tenants, and anchor retailers which own their own
space, to close stores at the Company's properties; (e) increases in certain
operating costs at the Company's properties; (f) decreases in rental rates
available from tenants leasing space at the Company's properties; (g)
unavailability of financing for acquisition, development and redevelopment of
properties by the Company; (h) increases in interest rates; and (i) a general
economic downturn resulting in lower retail sales and, in turn, store
closures, rent delinquencies, reduced percentage rents and other downward
pressure on occupancies and rents at retail properties.

ITEM 8.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
 
                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Alexander Haagen Properties, Inc.:
 
  We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Alexander
Haagen Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31,
1997 and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1997. Our audits also included the financial statement
schedules listed in the Index at Item 14.A.2. These financial statements and
financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial
statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.
 
  We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
 
  In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, such
financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
                      THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997
 
1. BUSINESS
 
  Alexander Haagen Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"),
is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT").
The Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition,
development and redevelopment of retail shopping centers in the Western United
States.
 
  As of December 31, 1997, the Company owned a portfolio comprised of
interests in 46 retail shopping centers (the "Properties"). All of the
Properties and assets in the Company's portfolio are held and operated by
Alexander Haagen Properties Operating Partnership, L.P., a California limited
partnership (the "Operating Partnership" or "OP") and Alexander Haagen
Properties Finance Partnership, L.P. (the "Finance Partnership"). The Company
is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and owns a 79.1%
interest therein. The Company owns 100% of the Finance Partnership and is its
sole general partner while the Operating Partnership is its sole Limited
Partner. The Company conducts substantially all of its operations through the
Operating Partnership and generally has full, exclusive and complete
responsibility and discretion in the management and control of the Operating
Partnership. The Properties consist of regional malls, power/promotional
centers, neighborhood/community shopping centers and single tenant facilities.
 
  On June 1, 1997 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with LF
Strategic Realty Investors, L.P. and Prometheus Western Retail, LLC,
affiliates of Lazard Freres Real Estate Investors, LLC, (together "LFREI"),
providing for LFREI to invest a total of up to $235 million in Common Stock of
the Company (the "Transaction"). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement the
Company will sell an aggregate of 15,666,666 shares of Common Stock to LFREI
at a price of $15.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of
$235 million (the "Total Equity Commitment"). The purchase price per share was
determined as a result of arm's length negotiations between the Company and
its advisors and LFREI and its advisors. On August 14, 1997, the Stockholders
of the Company approved the Transaction.
 
  As of December 31, 1997, the Company had sold 4,006,434 shares, to LFREI
under the terms of the Transaction for aggregate proceeds of $60.1 million. On
February 13, 1998 the Company sold an additional 2,700,000 shares to LFREI. As
of February 13, 1998, LFREI is obligated to purchase a further 8,960,232
Shares of Common Stock for aggregate proceeds of $134.4 million (the
"Remaining Equity Commitment"). As of such date, LFREI owned approximately
35.4% of the outstanding Common Stock.
 
  The Company must sell the Remaining Equity Commitment not later than
February 14, 1999. If the Company has not drawn the Remaining Equity
Commitment by such date, LFREI will have the right on such date to purchase
such shares from the Company, at a price of $15.00 per share. If LFREI
acquires all of the shares represented by the Remaining Equity Commitment (and
assuming no other change in the number of outstanding shares), LFREI will own
approximately 56.3% of the outstanding Common Stock (37.9% on a Diluted
Basis).
 
  Subject to certain restrictions, in the event that the Company issues or
sells shares of capital stock for cash, LFREI will be entitled to purchase or
subscribe for, either as part of such issuance or in a concurrent issuance,
that portion of the total number of shares to be issued equal to LFREI's
proportionate holdings of Common Stock prior to such issuance (but not to
exceed 37.5% of the offering).
 
  For a period of five years following stockholder approval (the "Standstill
Period") and any Standstill Extension Term, LFREI and its affiliates may not
(i) acquire beneficial ownership of more than 49.9% of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock, on an Adjusted Fully Diluted Basis (as defined below), (ii)
sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock except in
accordance with certain specified limitations (including a requirement that
the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, approve any transfer in a
 
                                      30

negotiated transaction that would result in the transferee beneficially owning
more than 9.8% of the Company's capital stock). As used herein, the term
Adjusted Fully Diluted Basis shall mean on a Diluted Basis, except that shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Company's outstanding
convertible debt or upon exercise of options granted under management benefit
plans shall not be included. After giving effect to the sale of 15,666,666
shares to LFREI, and assuming no other change in the number of outstanding
shares, LFREI will own 49.0% of the Common Stock on an Adjusted Fully Diluted
Basis. In the event that the number of outstanding shares were to increase for
any reason (including as a result of issuance of Common Stock upon conversion
or exercise of the outstanding convertible debt or management stock options),
then LFREI would be allowed to acquire additional shares of Common Stock, up
to 49.9% on an Adjusted Fully Diluted Basis. In addition to the above, LFREI
has the right to nominate four members to the Company's Board of Directors.
Further, LFREI is entitled to receive access to certain operating statements
and other financial reports used in operating the Company on a monthly basis.
 
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  The Company's significant accounting policies are as follows:
 
  Basis of Presentation--The accompanying financial statements, include the
accounts of the Company and the OP on a consolidated basis. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the
consolidated presentation.
 
  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
  Minority Interests--Included in minority interest for the years ended
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 is the 20.9%, 26.3%, and 8.0% interests,
respectively, in the results of the OP which are owned by various third
parties. At December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, 4,279,789, 4,286,456, and
1,069,576 OP Units were held by the minority limited partners, respectively.
The OP Units are exchangeable, subject to maintaining the Company's status as
a REIT, on a one-for-one basis for shares of the Company's common stock or for
cash, at the option of the Company.
 
  In addition, adjustments have been made to minority interest in the OP.
During 1997, 1996 and 1995, adjustments of $5,737,000, $31,509,000 and
$199,000 were recorded, principally, as a result of the issuance of additional
shares of common stock and OP Units and the conversion of OP Units into common
stock.
 
  Minority interest also includes the limited partners' share of equity in two
properties. The two properties in which the OP has a general partner interest
are Kenneth Hahn Plaza (75% interest) and Vermont-Slauson Shopping Center (34%
interest). Consolidation accounting is applied to both of the above
partnerships as the OP is deemed to have control over the operations of the
properties.
 
  Rental Properties--Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Costs incurred for the acquisition, renovation and betterment of
the properties are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to income
as incurred. Costs incurred during the initial leasing period of a property
(primarily representing interest, property taxes, and unrecoverable operating
costs) are also capitalized as buildings and improvements. The initial leasing
period is generally defined as that period beginning when basic construction
of the building is complete and ending when substantially all tenant
improvements and additional construction costs have been incurred; however,
such initial leasing period cannot exceed one year.
 
                                      31

 
                       ALEXANDER HAAGEN PROPERTIES, INC.
 
            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
 
  The Company regularly reviews long-lived assets and intangible assets for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of expected
future cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company
recognizes an impairment loss equal to the difference between the estimated
current value and the carrying amount of the asset.
 
  Interest costs incurred with respect to qualified expenditures relating to
the construction of assets are capitalized during the construction period.
Interest capitalized during the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995
amounted to $843,000, $400,000 and $1,112,000, respectively. Cash paid for
interest, net of capitalized interest costs, was $33,895,000, $33,576,000 and
$29,116,000, for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
 
  Depreciation and Amortization--The cost of buildings and improvements is
depreciated on the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, as
follows:
 
    Buildings--40 years
    Leasehold interests--shorter of lease term or useful life of the
    related property
    Improvements--shorter of lease term or useful life ranging from 10 to
    20 years
 
  During the first quarter of 1996, the Company reviewed the depreciable lives
of its properties. The Company concluded that in order to more appropriately
align the depreciable lives with the economic lives of the properties the
lives should generally be increased to 40 years from previously utilized lives
ranging from 20 to 31.5 years. The net impact of such change in lives was to
reduce the depreciation charge for the year ended December 31, 1996 by
approximately $4,800,000.
 
  Cash and Cash Equivalents--Cash and cash equivalents include readily
marketable securities with original maturities of three months or less.
 
  Deferred Charges--Deferred charges include deferred leasing costs and loan
fees. Leasing costs include an allocation of the cost of Haagen Property
Management, Inc.'s ("HPMI"), an affiliate, leasing and legal departments (see
Note 13) and third party leasing commissions. Such costs are amortized on the
straight-line basis over the initial lives of the leases, which range from 5
to 20 years. Deferred financing fees are amortized over the terms of the
respective loans.
 
  Deferred charges are summarized as follows:
 


                                                               DECEMBER 31,

  Revenue Recognition and Tenant Receivables--Leases with tenants are
accounted for as operating leases. Minimum annual rentals are recognized on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. Unbilled deferred rent represents the
amount by which expected straight-line rental income exceeds rents currently
due under the lease agreement. During the first quarter of 1996 the Company
reassessed the recoverability of straight-line contractual rent increases as a
result of the continuing mergers and consolidations within the retail industry
and the financial

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
difficulties of certain retailers. Accordingly, during the first quarter of
1996 the Company recorded a non-recurring non-cash charge of $6.9 million to
increase the reserve against the receivable for straight-line rents.
Additionally, the Company has fully reserved against unbilled deferred rents
accruing during 1997 and 1996. The Company believes this to be an appropriate
and conservative approach to account for future contractual rent increases in
the current retail environment. This approach results in a reduction in
revenues recognized in 1997 and 1996 of approximately $1.2 million and $1.3
million, respectively. The Company continually evaluates its reserve for
straight-line rents and may adjust its reserve in the future for changes in
the retail environment. Total rents receivable consist of the following:
 


                                                                DECEMBER 31,

  Included in billed tenant receivables are (1) additional rentals based on
common area maintenance expenses and certain other expenses which are accrued
in the period in which the related expense is incurred and (2) percentage
rents which are accrued on the basis of reported tenant sales.
 
  Other Income--In connection with the development of the Media City Center,
(Burbank, CA), commitments in the form of notes receivable (terminating in
2016) were received from the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of
Burbank (the "Burbank Agency") aggregating $51,500,000 (plus interest, subject
to certain reductions, as defined). Such commitments are repayable by the
Burbank Agency out of incremental sales and property taxes associated with
certain defined parcels within the property. Management considers amounts
receivable under these notes to be contingent in nature and accordingly has
not recorded the notes receivable. Other income has been recorded with respect
to these commitments generally in proportion to the recording of property tax
expense. Included in other income in connection with such commitments for the
years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 is $2,656,000, $2,797,000 and
$2,756,000, respectively. At December 31, 1997 and 1996, $3,431,000 and
$2,182,000, respectively, was recorded as other receivables with respect to
such commitments from the Burbank Agency.
 
  Under similar commitments from the Community Redevelopment Agencies of the
Cities of Fullerton and Chino, other income was recognized for the years ended
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 from Fullerton Town Center of $48,000,
$57,000 and $59,000 respectively, and Country Fair Shopping Center of
$147,000, $146,000 and $122,000 respectively.
 
  Income Taxes--The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with the
taxable year ended December 31, 1993. As a result, the Company generally will
not be subject to federal and state income taxation at the corporate level to
the extent it distributes annually at least 95% of its REIT taxable income, as
defined in the Code, to its stockholders and satisfies certain other
requirements. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal and state
income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
 
  As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, the tax basis of certain net assets of the
Company was approximately $88,200,000 and $65,000,000, respectively, less than
the book basis of such assets.
 
  Earnings Per Share--During 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic loss per share for the
years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 were computed based on the
weighted average number of shares outstanding of 13,312,311, 12,024,097 and
11,964,253, respectively. Potential common shares were antidilutive in each of
the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995.
 
  Accounting Pronouncements--In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. This statement is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. The Company has not yet analyzed the impact of adopting
this statement.
 
  Reclassifications--Certain amounts have been reclassified in the 1996 and
1995 financial statements to conform to the 1997 financial statements
presentation.

4. NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM OFFICER
 
  In December, 1997 the Company extended a loan to an executive officer in the
amount of $3,126,000. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of the loan
at an annual rate of 7.45%. The loan is collateralized by all of the officer's
actual and beneficial ownership interests in the Company. The loan requires
that quarterly payments, equal to the amount of dividends and distributions
paid on the officer's ownership interests, be made to the Company. The loan
matures in December, 2004. If not paid in full, the balance of the loan is due
in full within six months subsequent to the termination of the Officer's
employment with the Company.

  On December 31, 1997, the OP entered into a new $250 million secured
revolving line of credit with a financial institution (the "Credit Facility").
The Credit Facility expires on December 31, 2000 and borrowings under the
Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate equal to London Inter-Bank
Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus 100 basis points (6.65% at December 31, 1997). To
the extent the borrowings are in excess of the outstanding LFREI commitment
such excess will bear interest at LIBOR plus 137.5 basis points.
 
  Upon conversion to an unsecured facility, borrowings will bear interest at
varying rates based upon the Company's leverage ratio and investment grade
rating interest. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by first
mortgage liens on Montebello Town Square, The City Center, Media City Center,
Empire Center, Medford Center, Pacific Linen Plaza, Ross Plaza, Vancouver Park
Place, Smitty's Tucson, Frontier Village and Marshalls Plaza. As properties
are acquired, they may be added to the security of the Credit Facility,
thereby increasing the amount available to the Company. Subsequent to December
31, 1997, the Company drew an additional $33,433,000 in borrowings against the
Credit Facility. On February 13, 1998 the Company repaid $40,500,000 of the
outstanding balance on the Credit Facility with proceeds from the sale of
common stock to LFREI. Additionally, the Company has utilized $5.0 million of
the Credit Facility to provide various letters of credit. The Credit Facility
is subject to certain conditions, the violation of which may affect its terms.
 
  Proceeds from the Credit Facility were used to repay amounts outstanding on
the former credit facility. In connection with the repayment of the former
credit facility, the Company incurred an extraordinary loss on the early
extinguishment of debt of $422,000 related to unamortized deferred financing
costs.
 
  The notes payable are secured by deeds of trust and the assignment of rents
and leases associated with the related properties. Certain of the non-recourse
notes payable are subject to certain conditions, the violation of which may
result in additional recourse being available to the lenders. Certain of the
loans are subject to substantial prepayment penalties, as defined in the
respective loan agreements--See Note 11, Fair Value Disclosure of Financial
Instruments.

  The $6,125,000 Community Facilities District Special Tax Bonds were issued
by the City of Fontana, California, to finance the construction of the
infrastructure for Empire Center. Debt service is provided through a special
tax assessment on the parcels of land within the development. As the amount of
the liability is fixed and determinable and the related assets are subject to
a lien, the liability and corresponding site improvement assets have been
reflected in the financial statements.
 
  Aggregate future principal payments as of December 31, 1997, excluding the
balance due on maturity of the Credit Facility, are as follows:

  Total amount excludes $108,727,000 outstanding on the secured line of credit
which is due on December 31, 2000.
 
  Restricted cash at December 31, 1997 and 1996 includes reserve funds
established in connection with the tax exempt financing. In addition, at
December 31, 1997 restricted cash includes funds restricted for the completion
of construction at the new AMC Theatres at Covina Town Square. Interest income
on such funds accrues to the benefit of the Company. Restricted cash
disbursements require the approval of the trustees of the respective
obligations.
 
6. SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES
 
  In conjunction with the IPO, the Company issued 7% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures, Series A and B which mature on January 15, 2001. The Convertible
Debentures are convertible at any time after issuance and prior to maturity,
into shares of Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price of $18.00 per
share, subject to adjustment under certain conditions. The Convertible
Debentures are not redeemable by the Company prior to maturity, except for
certain reasons primarily intended to protect the Company's status as a REIT.
Interest on the Convertible Debentures is payable semi-annually in arrears on
January 15 and July 15.
 
  The Convertible Debentures are unsecured general obligations of the Company,
subordinate to all existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company, as
defined. The Convertible Debentures are effectively subordinated to all
indebtedness of the OP.
 
  Concurrently, the OP issued 7 1/4% Exchangeable Subordinated Debentures
which mature on December 27, 2003 and are secured by one of the Company's
Properties. The Exchangeable Debentures are exchangeable at any time for
Common Stock of the Company at an exchange price of $18.00 per share, except
for certain reasons, primarily intended to protect the Company's status as a
REIT. Interest on the Exchangeable Debentures is payable semi-annually in
arrears on June 27 and December 27.
 
  The Exchangeable Debentures are redeemable by the OP at any time on or after
December 27, 1998, at the option of the Company, at 100% of the principal
amount thereof, together with accrued interest. The

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
Exchangeable Debentures may be put to the OP for cash in the principal amount
thereof together with accrued interest at the election of the holders at any
time on or after December 27, 2000.
 
  During the year ended December 31, 1995, approximately $1,000,000, of the
Convertible Debentures were converted by the holders into 55,555 shares of
Common Stock of the Company. No conversions were made in 1997 or 1996.
 
7. REDEEMABLE COMMON STOCK
 
  In connection with the Separation Agreement, as described in Note 12 below,
the Company has agreed to purchase, or cause to have purchased, from the
Haagen Family, on May 25, 1999, an aggregate of 3,656,818 shares of common
stock and Operating Partnership Units (the "Shares") at a price per share
equal to the greater of $17 or the then current market price (as determined in
accordance with the Separation Agreement). Under the terms of the Separation
Agreement, the Haagen Family may not sell such shares other than certain open
market transactions on the American Stock Exchange. Included in the Shares to
be repurchased are 510,034 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 1997,
such shares have been reflected as Redeemable Common Stock at the fair value
on the date of the Separation Agreement.
 
8. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
 
  In addition to Common Stock, the Company's Charter authorizes the issuance
of 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share. No such
shares were issued or outstanding as of December 31, 1997.
 
  During each of the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the Company
declared four quarterly distributions of $0.36 per share/unit.
 
9. STOCK OPTION AND INCENTIVE PLAN
 
  On May 30, 1997 and August 14, 1997, the Company amended and restated its
1993 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "Option Plan") which enables
executive officers, key employees and directors of the Company, the OP and
HPMI to participate in the ownership of the Company. The Option Plan provides
for the award of a broad variety of stock-based compensation alternatives such
as non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, and restricted stock,
and provides for the grant to Independent Directors and directors of HPMI of
non-qualified stock options. Options are granted at prices which are not less
than market at date of grant, expire ten years from the date of grant, and are
generally exercisable 25% per year over four years. The Option Plan is
administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which is
authorized to determine the number of shares to be subject thereto and the
terms and conditions thereof. Pursuant to the Option Plan, 2,000,000 shares of
Common Stock were reserved for issuance to eligible participants.

  In addition to the above, during 1997 101,000 shares of restricted stock

  The weighted average fair value of the stock options granted during 1997 and
1996 were $12.98 and $12.25, respectively. The Company applies Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for
its stock option and incentive plan. Accordingly, no compensation cost has
been recognized as a result of its initial granting of Stock Options. As a
result of the retirement of the Haagen Family (see Note 12 below), the Company
accelerated the vesting period of certain stock options and restricted stock.
As a result, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $2.7 million in
connection with such acceleration. During 1997, the Company recorded
compensation expense of $299,000 related to the amortization of deferred
compensation related to Restricted Stock granted to certain officers of the
Company. Had compensation cost for the Company's Option Plan been determined
based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards during 1997 and 1996

  The fair value of options granted under the Company's Option Plan was
estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model
with the following weighted-average assumptions used for 1997 and 1996,
respectively: expected life of five years; risk free interest rate of 5.49%
and 6.13%; expected dividend yield of 8.3% and 9.0%; and expected volatility
of 22.2% and 21.01%.
 
10. FUTURE MINIMUM RENT
 
  The Company has operating leases with tenants that expire at various dates
through 2037 and are either subject to scheduled fixed increases or
adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index. Generally, the leases grant
tenants renewal options and provide certain potential allowances during the
initial lease-up period. Leases also provide for additional or contingent
rents based on certain operating expenses as well as tenants sales volume.
Future minimum rent under operating leases on a cash basis, excluding tenant
reimbursements of certain costs, as of December 31, 1997 is summarized as
follows:

  The majority of the Properties are located in Southern California. The
ability of the tenants to honor the terms of their respective leases is
dependent upon the economic, regulatory and social factors affecting the
communities and industries in which the tenants operate.
 
11. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
  The following disclosure of estimated fair value was determined by the
Company using available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies. However, considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market
data and develop the related estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the
estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that
could be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments. The use of
different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a
material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
 
  Billed tenant and other receivables, accounts payable and other liabilities
are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair value. The fair
value of unbilled deferred rent is not determinable. It is not practical to
determine the fair value of the Community Facilities District Special Tax
Bonds as such amounts are subject to various government regulations and
restrictions.
 
  The fixed rate mortgage notes payable totaling $162,808,000 and $159,278,000
as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, have fair values of
$181,397,000 and $168,865,000, respectively (excluding prepayment penalties)
as estimated based upon current interest rates available for the issuance of
debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. These notes were subject to
estimated prepayment penalties of $35,842,000 and $23,281,000 at December 31,
1997 and 1996, respectively, which would be required to retire these notes
prior to maturity. The carrying value of floating rate tax-exempt certificates
of participation of $36,000,000 at December 31, 1997 and 1996 approximates
their fair value. The fair market values of the Convertible Debentures at
December 31, 1997 and 1996 were $140,505,000 and $128,900,000, respectively,
based on the trading price of the Series A Convertible Debentures as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996. The fair value of the Exchangeable Debentures at
December 31, 1997 and 1996 approximates their carrying value.
 
  The fair value estimates presented herein are based on information available
to management as of December 31, 1997 and 1996. Although management is not
aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value
amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of
these financial statements since that date, and current estimates of fair
value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.
 
12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
  Haagen Separation Agreement--On November 24, 1997, the Company entered into
an agreement (the "Separation Agreement") with Alexander Haagen, Sr.,
Charlotte Haagen and Alexander Haagen, III (collectively the "Haagen Family")
in connection with their retirement from the Company. Under the terms of the
Separation Agreement, the Haagen Family received $2.7 million in cash, vesting
of all granted stock options and restricted stock awards, and the granting and
vesting of previously committed restricted stock awards. In addition, for
certain defined periods the Company agreed to continue to provide the Haagen
Family certain medical benefits and administrative assistance. Further, the
Company has agreed to purchase, or cause to have purchased, substantially all
of the Haagen Family's ownership interests in the Company on May 25, 1999 (see
Note 7).
 
  During 1997, the Company recorded a non-recurring charge of $9.4 million
which reflects the consideration given to the Haagen Family in connection with
the Separation Agreement. Included in accrued expenses as of December 31, 1997
is approximately $4.9 million related to the Separation Agreement of which
$2.7 million in cash was paid on January 2, 1998. The remaining $4.5 million
relates to noncash charges for the acceleration of the vesting of stock
options and restricted stock, granting and acceleration of vesting of
previously committed restricted stock awards, and the value attributed to the
Company's obligation to repurchase the Haagen Family's ownership interests in
the Company and has been charged directly to Additional Paid-in Capital.
 
  Haagen Property Management, Inc.--Through December 31, 1997, HPMI conducted
all of the executive, construction, leasing, legal, and property management
functions pursuant to management agreements between the OP and HPMI. Prior to
December 31, 1997, the OP owned a 95% economic interest in but did not control
HPMI. The investment has been accounted for on the equity basis as an
unconsolidated subsidiary. No dividends were paid by HPMI during the three
years ended December 31, 1997. HPMI provides leasing and property management
services to other properties owned by certain third parties. In connection
with the Separation Agreement (see above), the OP purchased the remaining 5%
economic interest. As such, the balance sheet of HPMI has been consolidated as
of December 31, 1997.

  Management fees are expensed by the OP as incurred. Leasing, legal,
acquisition, and construction fees are capitalized and amortized over the
useful lives of the related leases or assets.
 
  Development Properties--Certain properties had not completed their initial
leasing plans at the date of the Company's initial public offering; Media City
Center, Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza, Empire Center, Montebello Town Square
and The City Center (the "Development Properties"). Pursuant to an agreement
among the Operating Partnership and certain limited partners that transferred
the Development Properties to the Operating Partnership such OP limited
partners had the right to receive additional partnership units in the
Operating Partnership ("OP Units") based upon the increase in net annualized
cash flow from the Development Properties between October 31, 1993 and the
expiration of the applicable lease-up period for each development property.
The increase in net annualized cash flow was based on leases signed by March
31 with the tenant open and paying rent by June 30 of the respective lease-up
periods.

                       ALEXANDER HAAGEN PROPERTIES, INC.
 
            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
 
  The lease-up period for Montebello Town Square and The City Center expired
on March 31, 1995 and resulted in the issuance of an additional 113,506 OP
Units to the OP Limited Partners. In connection with this issuance of
additional OP Units, all of the leases were executed by March 31, 1995, with
tenants paying rent by June 30, 1995, including certain leases where tenants
were not open by June 30, 1995. The independent directors determined that it
was appropriate to issue additional OP Units for all of these leases.
 
  The lease-up period for Media City Center, Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza and
Empire Center expired on March 31, 1996. In connection with the completion of
construction at Empire Center, certain improvements constructed during the
lease-up period were not leased as of March 31, 1996. The independent
directors determined that, the cost of construction of such improvements
should be borne by the Company for purposes of calculating the issuance of
additional OP Units for Empire Center and no OP Units would be issuable to the
limited partners in connection with such unleased improvements. During the
year ended December 31, 1995, the opening of approximately 38,000 square feet
of retail and restaurant space at Media City Center, principally comprising a
30,000 square foot Virgin Megastore, and the 57,000 square foot Sony/Magic
Johnson Theatres at Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza, represented expansion of the
Development Properties not contemplated at the IPO. Therefore, no additional
OP Units were issued in connection with such expansions.
 
  On August 12, 1996, the independent members of the Board of Directors
approved the issuance of 3,242,379 OP Units to the limited partners. The
market capitalization of the OP was thereby increased by $41.7 million based
upon the stock price as of August 12, 1996. The minority interest in the OP
was thereby increased from 8.0% to approximately 26.3% effective July 1, 1996.
As a result of the issuance in the third quarter of the 3,242,379 OP Units,
minority interest was increased and additional paid-in capital decreased by
approximately $31,509,000. The issuance of such additional OP Units in the
third quarter of 1996 did not have a dilutive effect on net income per share.
The number of OP Units issued and outstanding as of December 31, 1997 and 1996
was 4,279,789 and 4,286,456, respectively.
 
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
  Operating Leases--The Company leases certain of its Properties under long-
term ground leases which are accounted for as operating leases and which
generally provide for contingent rents based on the Company's tenants' sales
volume and renewal options. Five leases expire between 2001 and 2018 and
provide for options to renew for additional periods of 20 to 30 years. Two
additional leases expire in 2012 and 2050. Future minimum rental payments
required during noncancelable lease terms as of December 31, 1997 are
summarized as follows:

  Assuming exercise of all renewal options, aggregate future rental payments
as of December 31, 1997 are $51,903,000. Certain of the Company's ground
leases contain participation features. Participation rents paid in accordance
with such terms were $51,000, $105,000, and $95,000 for the years ended
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

  Litigation--The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims
that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters are generally
covered by insurance. While the resolution of these matters cannot be
predicted with certainty, management believes, based on currently available
information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material
adverse effect on the financial statements of the Company.
