Accountants' Review Report
- --------------------------
Trustees and Shareholders
Federal Realty Investment Trust
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Federal Realty
Investment Trust as of June 30, 1997 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the six month periods ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the consolidated statements of operations for the
three month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Trust's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical review procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which
is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements for them to be in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1996 and the
related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated
February 5, 1997, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated
financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1996 is
stated fairly, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance
sheet from which it has been derived.

NOTE A - ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OTHER DATA
Reference should be made to the notes to financial statements included in
the Annual Report to shareholders for the year ended December 31, 1996 which
contain the Trust's accounting policies and other data.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued SFAS 128, "Earnings Per
Share" which will be effective for financial statements issued for periods
ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS 128 requires that public companies present
basic and diluted earnings per share, which are computed differently than the
currently used primary and fully diluted earnings per share. The most
significant difference in the computation for the Trust is the exclusion of the
effect of dilutive stock options from the computation of basic earnings per
share. Since the effect of dilutive stock options is negligible, basic and
diluted earnings per share are equal as follows:

On January 6, 1997 the Trust purchased the fee interest in Shillington,

with the purchase agreement for Lawrence Park, in January 1997 the Trust lent
the seller $8.8 million at 8% interest which is
10
<PAGE>
due in June 1998. The Trust had previously held these properties under capital
leases.
On February 24, 1997 the Trust purchased a 16 acre tract of land underlying
part of the Shops at Willow Lawn for $4.6 million in cash. On June 3, 1997 the
Trust exercised its purchase option on a parcel of land adjacent to its Bethesda
Row property in Bethesda, Maryland for $5.8 million in cash. The land will be
used for future development. In connection with the purchase, a $3.6 million
mortgage which the Trust had made to the seller was repaid.
The Trust purchased four retail buildings and two shopping centers during
the first half of 1997. On January 22, 1997 the Trust purchased a 5,000 square
foot retail building in Chicago, Illinois for cash of $4.2 million. On March
31, 1997 two partnerships were formed to purchase property in California. One of
the partnerships purchased a 15,000 square foot building in Santa Monica,
California for $4.0 million and the other purchased a 20,000 square foot
building in San Diego, California for $850,000. On April 17, 1997 Street Retail
West II, a partnership which was organized in December 1996, exercised its
purchase option on a retail building in Santa Monica, California. The total
cost, including the buyout of the existing tenant, was $7.1 million. In
accordance with the provisions of the three partnership agreements, the Trust
contributed 90% of the costs to the partnerships with the other 10% being
contributed by the minority interests.
On March 5, 1997 the Trust, through a Limited Liability Company ("the LLC")
organized by the Trust, purchased the 320,000 square foot San Jose Town &
Country Village Shopping Center in San Jose, California for $42.8 million. The
other member of the LLC has a minor interest in the profits. On March 31, 1997
the 159,000 square foot Pike 7 Shopping Center in Tysons Corner, Virginia was
purchased for $31.5 million by a partnership formed to own the center. The
Trust contributed $30.9 million to the partnership which was used to pay off
existing debt on the center. The other partners contributed the shopping center
and its existing debt in exchange for partnership units valued at $495,000 which
are exchangeable, at the option of the Trust, for cash or 18,074 common shares
of the Trust.
On May 13, 1997 the Trust sold Town & Country Shopping Center in
Springfield, Illinois for $7.5 million, resulting in a gain of $5.3 million. On
May 30, 1997 Shillington Shopping Center in Shillington, Pennsylvania was sold
for $4.6 million, resulting in a gain of $1.7 million. The cash from these
transactions was deposited with an escrow agent to be used for future
acquisitions, in order to structure the sales as tax free exchanges for tax
purposes.
11
<PAGE>
NOTE D - MORTGAGE NOTES RECEIVABLE
On April 17, 1997 the Trust loaned the minority partners in Street Retail
West II $3.9 million. The loan is secured by property in Santa Monica, earns
interest at 10% and participates in certain revenues and appreciation of the
property.
NOTE E - OTHER ASSETS
On April 24, 1997 the Trust purchased Terranomics Retail Services, a
property management and brokerage company, for approximately $2.0 million, to
provide it with leasing and property management services on the west coast.
NOTE F - NOTES PAYABLE
The Trust has $135 million of unsecured medium term revolving credit
facilities with four banks. The facilities, which bear interest at LIBOR plus
75 basis points, require fees and have covenants requiring a minimum
shareholders' equity and a maximum ratio of debt to net worth. At June 30, 1997
there was $93.1 million borrowed under these credit facilities. The maximum
drawn during the first half of 1997 was $93.1 million. The weighted average
interest rate on borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was 6.4%.
A $2.5 million note issued in connection with a lease at Barracks Road was
retired during the first six months of 1997.
NOTE E - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
On February 4, 1997 the Trust sold 3.0 million shares to an institutional
investor for $28 per share, netting $83.9 million. During the first six months
of 1997, 66,468 shares were issued at prices ranging from $20.50 a share to
$24.125 a share from the exercise of stock options. The Trust accepted notes of
$264,000 from certain of its officers and employees in connection with the
issuance of 12,500 of these shares and a note for $41,000 was repaid.
On January 31, 1997, 22,000 restricted shares were granted to an officer
and two employees of the Trust. The shares vest over three years.
During the first six months of 1997, 1.1 million options at prices ranging
from $25.75 per share to $27.125 per share were granted to certain officers and
employees.
12
<PAGE>
NOTE F - INTEREST EXPENSE
The Trust incurred interest expense totaling $25.2 million during the first
half of 1997 and $22.8 million during the first half of 1996, of which $1.2
million and $465,000, respectively, were capitalized. Interest paid was $24.8
million in the first half of 1997 and $22.6 million in the first half of 1996.
NOTE G - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
As previously reported, certain of the Trust's shopping centers have
some environmental contamination. The Trust has retained an environmental
consultant to investigate contamination at a shopping center in New Jersey. The
Trust is evaluating whether it has insurance coverage for this matter. At this
time, the Trust has not determined what the range of remediation costs might be,
but does not believe that the costs will have a material effect upon the Trust's
financial condition. The Trust has also identified chlorinated solvent
contamination at another property. The contamination appears to be linked to
the current and/or previous dry cleaner. The Trust intends to look to the
responsible parties for any remediation effort. Evaluation of this situation is
preliminary and it is impossible, at this time, to estimate the range of
remediation costs, if any.
Pursuant to the provisions of the respective partnership agreements, in the
event of the exercise of put options by the other partners, the Trust would be
required to purchase the 99% limited partnership interest at Loehmann's Plaza at
its then fair market value and a 22.5% interest at Congressional Plaza at its
then fair market value.
Under the terms of certain partnerships, if certain leasing and revenue
levels are obtained for the properties owned by the partnerships, the limited
partners may require the Trust to purchase their partnership interests at a
formula price based upon net operating income. The purchase price may be paid
in cash or common stock of the Trust at the election of the limited partners.
If the limited partners do not redeem their interest, the Trust may choose to
purchase the limited partnership interests upon the same terms.
At June 30, 1997 in connection with certain redevelopment projects and
tenant improvements, the Trust is contractually obligated on contracts of
approximately $7.6 million. At June 30, 1997 the Trust is also obligated under
leases with tenants to provide up to an additional $6.5 million for
improvements.

FEDERAL REALTY INVESTMENT TRUST
FORM 10-Q
June 30, 1997
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Federal Realty meets its liquidity requirements through net cash provided
by operating activities, long term borrowing through debt offerings and
mortgages, medium and short term borrowing under revolving credit facilities,
and equity offerings. Because a significant portion of the Trust's net cash
provided by operating activities is distributed to shareholders, capital outlays
for property acquisitions, renovation projects and debt repayments require
funding from borrowing or equity offerings.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased from $28.8 million
during the first half of 1996 to $33.3 million during the first half of 1997.
The $4.4 million increase resulted primarily from the positive cash effects of a
$6.4 million increase in income before gain on sale of real estate and a $1.9
million increase in depreciation and amortization offset by a $3.1 million
increase in cash used for operating activities such as accounts receivable,
prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses. Dividends paid in cash
were $30.1 million in 1997 and $25.1 million in 1996.
During the first half of 1997, the Trust invested $103.3 million of cash to
acquire real estate assets, $23.6 million to improve its properties and $13.7
million in mortgage notes receivable. On January 6, 1997 the Trust purchased
the fee interest in Shillington, Troy and Feasterville Shopping Centers for $1.9
million, $5.7 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The Trust also contracted
to purchase the fee interest in Lawrence Park Shopping Center in June 1998 for
$8.5 million. In connection with the purchase agreement for Lawrence Park, in
January 1997 the Trust lent the seller $8.8 million at 8% interest which is due
in June 1998. The Trust had previously held these properties under capital
leases. On February 24, 1997 the Trust purchased a 16 acre tract of land
underlying part of the Shops at Willow Lawn for $4.6 million in cash. On June 3,
1997 the Trust exercised its purchase option on a parcel of land adjacent to its
Bethesda Row property in Bethesda, Maryland for $5.8 million in cash. The land
will be used for future development. In connection with the purchase, a $3.6
million mortgage which the Trust had made to the seller was repaid.
The Trust purchased four retail buildings and two shopping centers during
the first half of 1997. On January 22, 1997
15
<PAGE>
the Trust purchased a 5,000 square foot retail building in Chicago, Illinois for
cash of $4.2 million. On March 31, 1997 two partnerships were formed to
purchase property in California. One of the partnerships purchased a 15,000
square foot building in Santa Monica, California for $4.0 million and the other
purchased a 20,000 square foot building in San Diego, California for $850,000.
On April 17, 1997, Street Retail West II, a partnership which was organized in
December 1996, exercised its purchase option on a retail building in Santa
Monica, California. The total cost, including the buyout of the existing
tenant, was $7.1 million. In accordance with the provisions of the partnership
agreements, the Trust contributed 90% of the cost of these buildings to the
partnerships with the other 10% being contributed by the minority interests.
Also, on April 17, 1997 the Trust loaned the minority partners in Street Retail
West II $3.9 million. The loan is secured by property in Santa Monica, earns
interest at 10% and participates in certain revenues and appreciation of the
property.
On March 5, 1997 the Trust, through a Limited Liability Company ("the LLC")
organized by the Trust, purchased the 320,000 square foot San Jose Town &
Country Village Shopping Center in San Jose, California for $42.8 million. The
other member of the LLC has a minor interest in the profits. On March 31, 1997
the 159,000 square foot Pike 7 Shopping Center in Tysons Corner, Virginia was
purchased for $31.5 million by a partnership formed to own the center. The
Trust contributed $30.9 million to the partnership which was used to pay off
existing debt on the center. The other partners contributed the shopping center
and its existing debt in exchange for partnership units valued at $495,000 which
are exchangeable, at the option of the Trust, for cash or 18,074 common shares
of the Trust.
On May 13, 1997 the Trust sold Town & Country Shopping Center in
Springfield, Illinois for $7.5 million, resulting in a gain of $5.3 million. On
May 30, 1997 Shillington Shopping Center in Shillington, Pennsylvania was sold
for $4.6 million, resulting in a gain of $1.7 million. The cash from these
transactions was deposited with an escrow agent to be used for future
acquisitions, in order to structure the sales as tax free exchanges for tax
purposes.
Improvements to Trust properties during the first half of 1997 included
$4.3 million for the second phase of the redevelopment of Brick Plaza, $2.7
million to begin the redevelopment of Wynnewood Shopping Center, $3.2 on the
redevelopment of Troy Shopping Center and $6.5 million of tenant work.
On April 24, 1997 the Trust purchased Terranomics Retail Services, a
property management and brokerage company for approximately $2.0 million, to
provide it with leasing and property management services on the west coast.
16
<PAGE>
On July 16, 1997 the Trust purchased a 3,750 square foot parcel of land in
Bethesda, Maryland for approximately $800,000. The land was purchased in order
to allow future expansion of the Trust's Bethesda Row property.
The Trust has $135.0 million of unsecured medium-term revolving credit
facilities with four banks. The facilities, which require fees and have
covenants requiring a minimum shareholders' equity and a maximum ratio of debt
to net worth, are used to fund acquisitions and other cash requirements until
conditions are favorable for issuing equity or long term debt. At June 30, 1997
the Trust had borrowed $93.1 million under these facilities, the maximum amount
borrowed under these facilities in 1997. Amounts advanced under these facilities
bear interest at LIBOR plus 75 basis points; the weighted average interest rate
on borrowings during the first half of 1997 was 6.4%.
On February 4, 1997 the Trust sold 3.0 million shares to an institutional
investor for $28 per share, netting $83.9 million. Proceeds from this offering
were used primarily to repay borrowings on the revolving credit facilities.
On July 29, 1997 The Trust sold $49 million of 6.82% Medium Term Notes.
The notes, which pay interest semi-annually on February 1 and August 1, mature
on August 1, 2027, but may be redeemed, at par, at the option of the holders on
August 1, 2007. Proceeds will be used to repay borrowings on the revolving
credit facilities.
The Trust is contractually obligated on contracts of approximately $7.6
million for redevelopment and tenant improvements and is committed under leases
for up to an additional $6.5 million in tenant work and general improvements to
its properties. In addition to these committed amounts, the Trust has budgeted
an additional $6 million for the remainder of 1997 for improvements to its
properties. These committed and budgeted improvements include the completion of
the second phase of the redevelopment and expansion of Brick Plaza, the
completion of the renovation and retenanting of Troy Shopping Center, and the
continuation of the renovation and retenanting of Wynnewood Shopping Center.
These expenditures will be funded with the revolving credit facilities pending
their long term financing with either equity or debt.
The Trust plans additional acquisitions of retail properties, both
shopping center and main street retail buildings, during the remainder of 1997.
In addition, the Trust has identified a limited number of sites in its core
markets for the development of new shopping centers.
The Trust will need additional capital in order to fund these acquisitions,
expansions and refinancings. Sources of this funding may be additional debt,
additional equity or proceeds from the sale of existing properties. The timing
and choice
17
<PAGE>
between additional debt or equity financing will depend upon many factors,
including the market price for the Trust's shares, interest rates and the ratio
of debt to net worth. The Trust believes that it will be able to raise this
capital as needed, based on its past success in so doing.
CONTINGENCIES
As previously reported, certain of the Trust's shopping centers have some
environmental contamination. The Trust has retained an environmental consultant
to investigate contamination at a shopping center in New Jersey. The Trust is
evaluating whether it has insurance coverage for this matter. At this time, the
Trust has not determined what the range of remediation costs might be, but does
not believe that the costs will have a material effect upon the Trust's
financial condition. The Trust has also identified chlorinated solvent
contamination at another property. The contamination appears to be linked to
the current and/or previous dry cleaner. The Trust intends to look to the
responsible parties for any remediation effort. Evaluation of this situation is
preliminary and it is impossible, at this time, to estimate the range of
remediation costs, if any.
Pursuant to the provisions of the respective partnership agreements, in the
event of the exercise of put options by the other partners, the Trust would be
required to purchase the 99% limited partnership interest at Loehmann's Plaza at
its then fair market value and a 22.5% interest at Congressional Plaza at its
then fair market value.
Under the terms of certain partnerships, if certain leasing and revenue
levels are obtained for the properties owned by the partnerships, the limited
partners may require the Trust to purchase their partnership interests at a
formula price based upon net operating income. The purchase price may be paid
in cash or common stock of the Trust at the election of the limited partners.
If the limited partners do not redeem their interest, the Trust may choose to
purchase the limited partnership interests upon the same terms.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996
Net income and funds from operations have been affected by the Trust's
recent acquisition, redevelopment and financing activities. The Trust has
historically reported its funds from operations in addition to its net income
and net cash provided by operating activities. Funds from operations is a
supplemental measure of real estate companies' operating performance which
excludes historical cost depreciation, since real estate values have
historically risen and fallen with market conditions rather than over time.
Funds from operations is defined by The National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") in a
18
<PAGE>
white paper issued during 1995, as follows: income before depreciation and
amortization of real estate assets and before extraordinary items and
significant non-recurring events less gains on sale of real estate. The Trust
complies with this definition. Funds from operations does not replace net income
as a measure of performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a
measure of liquidity. Rather, funds from operations has been adopted by real
estate investment trusts to provide a consistent supplemental measure of
operating performance in the industry.
The reconciliation of net income to funds from operations for the six
months ended June 30 is as follows:

Less: gain on sale of real estate (7,034) -

Funds from operations $38,853 $30,805
======= =======
</TABLE>
Funds from operations increased 26% to $38.9 million in the first half of
1997 from $30.8 million in the first half of 1996.
Rental income, which consists of minimum rent, percentage rent and cost
recoveries, increased 13% from $80.7 million in the first half of 1996 to $91.0
million in the first half of 1997. If properties purchased and sold in 1996 and
1997 are excluded, rental income increased 4%.
Minimum rent increased 12% from $64.8 million in the first half of 1996 to
$72.5 million in the first half of 1997. Excluding properties purchased and
sold in 1996 and 1997, minimum rent increased 3%.
Cost reimbursements consist of tenant reimbursements of real estate taxes
(real estate tax recovery) and common area maintenance expenses (CAM recovery).
Cost reimbursements increased 20% from $13.5 million during the first half of
1996 to $16.3 million during the first half of 1997. Excluding properties
purchased and sold in 1996 and 1997, cost reimbursements increased from $13.2
million to $14.7 million. Real estate tax recovery on the core portfolio
increased $448,000 as real estate taxes increased. CAM recovery increased $1.1
million on the core portfolio, reflecting the increased recovery of CAM in 1997
from properties under redevelopment in 1996 such as Congressional Plaza, Brick
Plaza and Bethesda Row as well as
19
<PAGE>
the decrease in CAM billing adjustments from 1996 to 1997. In 1996 snow removal
costs were so high that the Trust granted concessions to tenants at certain
centers.
Other property income includes items which tend to fluctuate from period to
period, such as utility reimbursements, telephone income, merchant association
dues, lease termination fees, late fees and temporary tenant income. Other
property income increased from $4.8 million during the first half of 1996 to
$5.5 million during the first half of 1997, primarily due to an increase in
lease termination fees.
Interest income increased from $1.9 million in the first half of 1996 to
$2.9 million in the first half of 1997 primarily because of interest on notes
receivable issued in 1996 and 1997.
Rental expenses have decreased 3% in the first half of 1997 from the first
half of 1996, to $21.0 million from $21.7 million. If centers acquired and sold
during 1996 and 1997 are excluded, rental expenses decreased 10%, primarily due
to decreased snow removal costs on the east coast in 1997 as compared to 1996.
Real estate taxes have increased from $8.0 million during the first half of
1996 to $9.5 million during the first half of 1997, primarily due to taxes on
the 1996 and 1997 acquisitions. Depreciation and amortization in the first half
of 1997 was 10% greater than in the first half of 1996. Excluding the effect
from the 1996 and 1997 acquisitions, depreciation and amortization increased 5%
due to depreciation on recent tenant work and property improvements.
Interest expense increased from $22.3 million during the first half of 1996
to $24.0 million during the first half of 1997, primarily due to interest
expense on the $50 million of 7.48% Debentures issued in August 1996. The ratio
of earnings to fixed charges was 1.71x for the first half of 1997 and 1.53x for
the comparable period in 1996. The ratio of funds from operations to fixed
charges was 2.47x for the first half of 1997 and 2.30x for the first half of
1996.
Administrative expenses have increased from $3.8 million during the first
half of 1996 to $4.6 million during the first half of 1997, primarily due to
increased personnel costs as the Trust is expanding and increased state income
taxes.
In May 1997 the Trust sold Town & Country Shopping Center in Springfield,
Illinois for $7.5 million, resulting in a gain of $5.3 million and Shillington
Shopping Center in Shillington, Pennsylvania for $4.6 million, resulting in a
gain of $1.7 million.

As a result of the foregoing items, net income increased from $12.9 million
during the first half of 1996 to $26.3 million during the first half of 1997.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996
Funds from operations increased 26% from $15.8 million in the second
quarter of 1996 to $19.9 million in the second quarter of 1997.
Rental income of $47.1 million in the second quarter of 1997 was 18% higher
than the $39.9 million in the second quarter of 1996. If properties purchased
and sold in 1996 and 1997 are excluded, rental income increased 7% to $41.7
million from $38.8 million.
Minimum rent, a component of rental income, increased 14% from $32.8
million in the second quarter of 1996 to $37.4 million in the second quarter of
1997. Excluding properties purchased and sold in 1996 and 1997, minimum rent
increased 3.5%.
Cost recoveries, another component of rental income, increased from $6.1
million in the second quarter of 1996 to $8.6 million in the second quarter of
1997. Excluding properties purchased and sold in 1996 and 1997, cost recoveries
increased from $5.9 million in the second quarter of 1996 to $7.7 million in the
second quarter of 1997. Real estate tax recovery on the core portfolio
increased $283,000 as real estate taxes increased. CAM recovery increased $1.6
million from the second quarter of 1996 to the second quarter of 1997,
reflecting the increased recovery of CAM in 1997 from properties under
redevelopment in 1996 such as Congressional Plaza, Brick Plaza and Bethesda Row
as well as the decrease in CAM billing adjustments from 1996 to 1997. In 1996
snow removal costs were so high that the Trust granted concessions to tenants
at certain centers.
Rental expenses have increased 9% from $9.9 million in the second quarter
of 1996 to $10.8 million in the second quarter of 1997. Excluding properties
purchased and sold in 1996 and 1997, rental expenses rose 1%. Real estate taxes
increased due to the 1996 and 1997 acquisitions and due to increased assessments
at several centers. Depreciation and amortization expense increased 11% from
the second quarter of 1996 to the second quarter of 1997. Approximately 50% of
the increase is attributable to properties purchased in 1996 and 1997 with the
balance of the increase being attributable to recent renovations and additions.
Interest expense increased from $11.1 million in the second quarter of 1996
to $12.0 million in the second quarter of 1997, primarily due to interest
expense on the $50 million of 7.48% Debentures issued in August 1996 and to
increased usage of the lines of credit, partially offset by an increase in
interest capitalized on development projects.
21
<PAGE>
Administrative expenses have increased from $2.1 million in the second
quarter of 1996 to $2.5 million in the second quarter of 1997 due to increased
personnel costs as the Trust is expanding.
In May 1997 the Trust sold Town & Country Shopping Center in Springfield,
Illinois for $7.5 million, resulting in a gain of $5.3 million and Shillington
Shopping Center in Shillington, Pennsylvania for $4.6 million, resulting in a
gain of $1.7 million.
As a result of the foregoing items, net income increased from $6.9 million
during the second quarter of 1996 to $17.0 million during the second quarter of
1997.
During the past few years, there have been a number of retailer
consolidations. These consolidations and a weakening of the retail environment
could adversely impact the Trust, by increasing vacancies and by decreasing
rents. In past weak retail and real estate environments, the Trust has been
able to replace tenants who leave or go bankrupt with stronger tenants.
Management believes that due to the quality of the Trust's properties there will
be continued demand for its retail space.
