1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
    Royale Investments, Inc. (the "Company"), a Minnesota corporation, was
formed in 1988, to acquire a portfolio of income-producing commercial real
estate properties. The Company has elected to qualify as a real estate
investment trust ("REIT") under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code
and intends to remain so qualified.
 
    As of September 30, 1997, the Company's portfolio was comprised of seven
properties leased to operators of seven major retail food stores under long-term
operating lease agreements. The leases have initial terms of 17 to 20 years and
expire between 2006 and 2014.
 
    Subsequent to September 30, 1997, the Company closed on the acquisition of a
portfolio of 10 properties, representing the Mid-Atlantic suburban office
operations of The Shidler Group, a national real estate investment firm (the
"Shidler Acquisition Properties"). In the transactions (the "Shidler
Transactions"), the Company became the sole general partner of and obtained a
20.6946% interest in FCO, L.P. ("FCO"), an operating partnership formed to
acquire and hold the Shidler Acquisition Properties (See Note 5).
 
2. GENERAL
 
    BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although
the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring matters) necessary to fairly present the
financial position of the Company as of September 30, 1997, and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1997 and 1996 have been included. The results of operations for such interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. For
further information refer to the Company's financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K (as amended by Form 10-K/A)
for the year ended December 31, 1996.
 
    CAPITALIZATION OF COSTS
 
    As of September 30, 1997, the Company had incurred $118,931 in costs
associated with its pursuit of the Shidler Acquisition Properties. Such costs
are included in deferred costs and other assets on the Company's balance sheet
as of September 30, 1997.
 
    NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
 
    Net income per common share is based on the weighted average number of
common shares ("Common Shares") outstanding adjusted to give effect to common
share equivalents. In February, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings per Share", which is effective for financial
statements for periods ending after December 15, 1997. At that time, the Company
will be required to change the method currently used to compute and disclose
earnings per share and to restate all prior periods. The impact of Statement No.
128 on the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per share for the
interim periods presented is not expected to be material.

    RECLASSIFICATIONS
 
    Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current presentation.
 
3. LINE OF CREDIT
 
    On April 10, 1997, the Company obtained a revolving credit agreement with a
bank whereby the Company can borrow up to $100,000 at an annual interest rate
equal to prime. Interest is payable monthly with the principal due April 10,
1998. At September 30, 1997, no amounts were borrowed against the note.
 
4. DIVIDENDS
 
    On September 25, 1997, the Company declared a cash dividend of $.125 per
common share payable on October 17, 1997, to stockholders of record as of
September 30, 1997.
 
5. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
    On October 14, 1997, the Company closed on the acquisition of the Shidler
Acquisition Properties. As a result of the Shidler Transactions, the Company
became the sole general partner of and obtained a 20.6946% interest in FCO, an
operating partnership formed to acquire and hold the Shidler Acquisition
Properties.
 
    The Shidler Acquisition Properties were acquired subject to mortgage
indebtedness of $100 million. The loan is a non-recourse mortgage loan
collateralized by the real estate assets of the Shidler Acquisition Properties.
The loan provides for monthly payments of interest only at a fixed rate of 7.5%
per annum. The loan matures on October 13, 2000 and provides for two one-year
extension options, subject to certain conditions.
 
    In connection with the Shidler Transactions, the Company issued 600,000
Common Shares (valued at $5.50 per share, aggregate of $3.3 million) and FCO
issued approximately 3.2 million common partnership units ("Common Units")
(valued at $5.50 per unit, aggregate of $17.5 million) and 2.1 million preferred
partnership units ("Preferred Units") (valued at $25.00 per unit, aggregate of
$52.5 million). The Preferred Units may be converted, on or after, October 1,
1999, into 3.5714 Common Units for each Preferred Unit. Subject to certain
conditions, beginning on September 1, 1998, Common Units are convertible into
one Common Share (or an equivalent cash value, at the sole discretion of the
Company) for each Common Unit. Certain Common Units and Preferred Units contain
certain restrictions through November 2000.
 
    Concurrently with the Shidler Transactions, the Company issued 273,729
Common Shares (valued at $5.50 per share, aggregate of $1.5 million) in exchange
for the assets of Crown Advisors, Inc. ("Crown"), an affiliate of the Company,
previously acting as investment advisor to the Company and assisting in the
management operations. The contract between Crown and the Company was terminated
and the Company entered into a property management agreement with Glacier
Realty, LLC ("Glacier"), all of the interests in which are owned by two current
officers of the Company, one of whom is also a current director. Further, the
Company retired 27,646 Common Shares previously held by Crown at the time it was
acquired.
 
    The property management agreement with Glacier provides for Glacier to
manage the seven net lease retail assets of Royale for a term of five years with
a minimum fee of $250,000 per annum.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
  OF OPERATIONS
 
    This Form 10-QSB contains forward looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The words "believe", "expect", anticipate", "intend",
"estimate" and other expressions which are predictions of or indicate future
events and trends and which do not relate to historical matters identify
forward-looking statements. The Company's actual results could differ materially
from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Certain factors that
might cause such a difference include the following: real estate investment
considerations, such as the effect of economic and other conditions in the
market area on cash flows and values; the need to renew leases or relet space
upon the expiration of current leases; the ability of a property to generate
revenues sufficient to meet debt service payments and other operating expenses;
and risks associated with borrowings, such as the possibility that the Company
will not have sufficient funds available to make principal payments on
outstanding debt or outstanding debt may be refinanced at higher interest rates
or otherwise on terms less favorable to the Company.
 
    The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results
of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial
statements and notes thereto.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
    COMPARISON OF THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND SEPTEMBER
     30, 1996
 
    During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
the Company owned and leased seven properties in five states to operators of
retail food stores.
 
    Net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, was
$85,050 and $263,108 respectively, as compared to net income of $88,803 and
$213,920 for the corresponding periods in 1996. The increase in net income for
the nine month period is primarily due to improved operating results of the
Company's properties as a result of scheduled rent increases and reduced
mortgage interest as a result of declining principal balances.
 
    Revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997,
increased by 1.5% and 1.6%, respectively, over the comparable periods of 1996,
due to scheduled increases in rental income, which was partially offset by
decreases in interest income. The impact of the straight-line rent adjustment
increased revenues by $49,915 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, and
by $49,915 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
 
    Expenses during the quarter ended September 30, 1997, increased by 2.4%, as
compared to the corresponding period in 1996. Expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, decreased by 1.2%, compared to the corresponding period in
1996. The decrease in expenses for the nine month period is primarily the result
of decreased mortgage interest due to declining principal balances and decreased
operations and management expenses primarily due to the reimbursement of certain
fees which the Company is obligated to make in connection with its lease
guarantees on two of the Company's properties. This decrease in expenses was
offset, in part, by an increase in administrative and general expenses primarily
attributable to public filing costs.
 
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
 
    During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, and September 30, 1996, the
Company generated $613,097 and $551,794, respectively, in cash flow from
operating activities. The increase is primarily the result of scheduled
increases in rental income and timing differences in receipts and disbursements
from year to year.
 
    Net cash provided by investing activities increased to $368,069 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997, as compared to $63,728 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996. This increase is
 
                                       8

primarily a result of the Company's change from investing excess cash balances
in U.S. Treasury Bills with maturities of six months, to investing excess cash
balances in cash equivalents with maturities of 30 days or less.
 
    Net cash used in financing activities totaled $742,485 and $729,693 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, and September 30, 1996, respectively. The
increased use is wholly due to increased mortgage amortization.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    The Company believes that its cash flow from operations is adequate to fund
its short-term liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. The Company's
properties are all leased on a triple-net basis, which places the risk of rising
property costs, such as maintenance, insurance and property taxes, on the
tenant. The leases generally provide that the tenant is also responsible for
roof and structural repairs. Cash flow from operations is generated primarily
from rental revenues and operating expense reimbursements from tenants and
interest income earned on the Company's cash investments. The Company intends to
use its cash funds to meet its principal short-term liquidity needs which are to
fund operations and management, and general and administrative expenses, debt
service requirements and the minimum distribution to shareholders required to
maintain the Company's REIT qualifications under the Internal Revenue Code.
 
    For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, the Company declared distributions
totaling $0.125 per Common Share amounting to $177,500.
 
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
 
    Management generally considers Funds from Operations ("FFO") as one measure
of REIT performance. The Company has adopted the NAREIT definition of FFO and
has used this definition for all periods presented in the financial statements
included herein. FFO is calculated as net income (loss) adjusted for
depreciation expense attributable to real property, amortization expense
attributable to capitalized leasing costs, gains on sales of real estate
investments and extraordinary and non-recurring items. FFO should not be
considered an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company's
performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
 
    FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, and September
30, 1996, is summarized in the following table:
 


                                                                  THREE MONTHS                NINE MONTHS

FCO, an operating partnership formed to acquire and hold the Shidler Acquisition
Properties.
 
    The Shidler Acquisition Properties were acquired subject to mortgage
indebtedness of $100 million. The loan is a non-recourse mortgage loan
