for the first quarter of 2002,  representing a 58.3% per share increase. For the

increase.  Net income and FFO per share amounts above are on a diluted  basis. A
reconciliation of net income to FFO is presented on the supplemental information
page of this press release.

                            First Quarter Highlights

o    95% period-end portfolio occupancy rate

o    152  leases   signed,   totaling   677,000  square  feet  with  respect  to
     re-tenanting  and renewal  activity,  including 50.4% of the square footage
     scheduled to expire during 2003

o    $293 per square foot in reported  same-space  tenant  sales for the rolling
     twelve months ended March 31, 2003

o    7.2%  occupancy  cost per square foot for the rolling  twelve  months ended
     March 31, 2003

o    99,000 square feet of development/expansion space underway and scheduled to
     open in third quarter of 2003

o    45.8%  debt-to-total  market  capitalization  ratio,  2.62  times  interest

o    $0.615 per share in common dividends declared,  $2.46 per share annualized,
     representing 10th consecutive year of increased dividends

Stanley K. Tanger, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, commented,
"Our  portfolio  and tenants  continued to perform well and post solid  results,
despite being faced with numerous  challenges  in the first  quarter,  including
unusually  harsh winter  conditions  and the shift in the Easter  holiday to the
second quarter of 2003. Our portfolio occupancy held firm again at a strong 95%,
equaling our first-quarter  occupancy rate for the past four consecutive  years.
Importantly,  we continued to operate our centers in a cost efficient manner, as
was evidenced by our low occupancy cost of 7.2%." Mr. Tanger continued,  "During
the first three months we have already released or renewed  approximately 50% of
the space  scheduled to expire  during the entire year. We are on track with our
development  and expansion  activities,  which may have a positive impact on our
earnings in the second half of the year. Overall,  we remain  well-positioned to
achieve our stated growth objectives for the year."

                           Portfolio Operating Results

During  the  first  quarter  of  2003,  Tanger  executed  152  leases,  totaling
approximately 677,000 square feet, including  approximately 539,000 square feet,
representing 50.4%, of the 1,070,000 square feet originally  scheduled to expire
during 2003.  Tanger  achieved a 1.7% increase in base rental revenue per square


                                       4


foot, on a cash basis,  with respect to this  re-tenanting and renewal activity.
Additionally,  the average  initial cash base rent for new stores  opened during
the first quarter of 2003 was $19.01,  representing an increase of $1.43 or 8.1%
above the average base rent for stores closed during the first quarter of 2003.

Reported  same-space  sales per square foot for the rolling  twelve months ended
March 31,  2003 were $293 per  square  foot.  This  represents  a 0.3%  decrease
compared to $294 per square foot for the rolling  twelve  months ended March 31,
2002.  For the first  quarter of 2003,  same-space  sales  decreased by 6.1%, as
compared  to the record  high first  quarter  sales for the same period in 2002.
Same-space  sales is  defined as the  weighted  average  sales per  square  foot
reported in space open for the full  duration of the  comparative  periods.  The
sales results are due, in part, to the severe winter during the first quarter of
2003 and the shift in the Easter holiday to the second quarter of 2003.

                              Investment Activities

In January 2003,  Tanger  acquired a 29,000 square foot,  100% leased  expansion
located  contiguous  with its existing  factory  outlet  center in  Sevierville,
Tennessee.  The purchase price was $4.7 million with an expected  return of 10%.
Construction  of an  additional  35,000  square foot  expansion of the center is
currently under way, with stores expected to open during the summer of 2003. The
cost of expansion  is  estimated  to be $4.0 million with an expected  return in
excess of 13%. Upon  completion of the expansion,  the  Sevierville  center will
total approximately 418,000 square feet.

Tanger is currently  underway  with  constructing  the second phase of our newly
opened,  100% leased center in Myrtle Beach,  SC. The second phase totals 64,000
square  feet and  stores are  expected  to open  during the summer of 2003.  The
center,  which was developed and is managed and leased by the Company,  is owned
through a joint venture of which the Company owns a 50%  interest.  Accordingly,
the Company's capital investment for the second phase will be approximately $1.1
million with an expected return in excess of 20%.

                              Balance Sheet Summary

As of March 31, 2003, Tanger had a total market  capitalization of approximately
$744  million,  with  $341  million  of debt  outstanding,  equating  to a 45.8%
debt-to-total  market  capitalization  ratio. This compares favorably to a total
market  capitalization  of approximately  $674 million with $360 million of debt
outstanding  on March 31,  2002.  The Company had a 53.3%  debt-to-total  market
capitalization  ratio as of March 31,  2002.  During  the first  quarter  Tanger
reduced its debt outstanding by $3.9 million.  As of March 31, 2003, the Company
had $19.3  million  outstanding  with $65.7  million  available  on its lines of
credit.  The Company continues to improve its interest coverage ratio, which was
2.62 times for the first  quarter of 2003,  as compared  to 2.35 times  interest
coverage in the same period last year.

On May 2,  2003,  Tanger  announced  it  would  call for  redemption  all of its
outstanding  Depositary  Shares  representing  Series A  Cumulative  Convertible
Redeemable Preferred Shares (NYSE: SKT-A) on June 20, 2003. The redemption price
will be $25.00 per Depositary Share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends,  if any,


                                       5


to, but not including, the redemption date. Prior to redemption, each Depositary
Share may be  converted  to .901 common  shares at the option of the  Depositary
Share holder until 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 17, 2003.

                           2003 FFO Per Share Guidance

Based on current  market  conditions,  the  strength  and  stability of its core
portfolio  and the Company's  ongoing  development,  expansion  and  acquisition
pipeline,  Tanger  currently  believes its FFO for 2003 will range between $3.44
and $3.50 per share. Tanger currently expects 2003 FFO to range between $0.81 to
$0.83 per share for the second  quarter,  $0.87 to $0.89 per share for the third
quarter and $0.98 to $1.00 per share for the fourth quarter.
