One Liberty Properties, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 - Basis of Preparation
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements as of
September 30, 1998 and for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1998
and 1997 reflect all normal, recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim
periods. The results of operations for the nine and three months ended September
30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of One Liberty
Properties, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiaries and a majority-owned limited
liability company. Material intercompany items and transactions have been
eliminated. One Liberty Properties, Inc., its subsidiaries and the limited
liability company are hereinafter referred to as the "Company".
Certain amounts reported in previous consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to
the current year's presentation.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related notes which are included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.
Note 2 - Earnings Per Common Share
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 128,
Earnings Per Share. Statement No. 128 replaced the calculation of primary and
fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share.
Unlike primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any
dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted
earnings per share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted
earnings per share. All earnings per share amounts for all periods have been
presented, and where appropriate, restated to conform to the Statement No. 128
requirements.
For the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 basic
earnings per share was determined by dividing net income applicable to common
stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding during each period.
<PAGE>
One Liberty Properties, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Continued)
Note 2 - Earnings Per Common Share (Continued)
Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if
securities or other contracts to issue Common Stock were exercised or converted
into Common Stock or resulted in the issuance of Common Stock that then shared
in the earnings of the Company. For the nine month periods ended September 30,
1998 and 1997 and the three month period ended September 30, 1997, diluted
earnings per share was determined by dividing net income applicable to common
stockholders for the period by the total of the weighted average number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of the Company's
outstanding options (947 for the nine months ended September 1998 and 7,374 and
4,157 for the nine and three months ended September 1997, respectively) using
the treasury stock method. The Preferred Stock was not considered for the
purpose of computing diluted earnings per share during these periods because
their assumed conversion is antidilutive. However, for the three months ended
September 30, 1998, the assumed conversion of the Preferred Stock is dilutive.
Thus, for the three months ended September 30, 1998, diluted earnings per share
was determined by dividing net income for the period by the total of the
weighted average number of Common Stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of
the Company's Preferred Stock using the if-converted method.
In addition, options to purchase 40,000 shares of Common Stock at $14.50 per
share (which were granted during March 1998) were not included in the
computation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of these
options is greater than the average market price of the common shares and,
therefore, the effect would be antidilutive.
Note 3 - Preferred and Common Stock Dividend Distributions
On August 28, 1998 the Board of Directors declared quarterly cash distributions
of $.30 and $.40 per share on the Company's common and preferred stock,
respectively, payable on October 1, 1998 to stockholders of record on September
15, 1998.
Note 4 - Rights Offering
On June 22, 1998, the Company sold 1,331,733 shares of Common Stock at $13.25
per share in a rights offering to its shareholders. Pursuant to a Registration
Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 10, 1998
and declared effective on March 31, 1998 the Company issued to each common and
preferred stockholder of record as of March 24, 1998, one nontransferable right
for each common and/or preferred share owned of record entitling the holder to
purchase one share of Common Stock for a price of $13.25 per share. In addition,
each common and preferred stockholder was afforded the opportunity to
over-subscribe to the extent of two additional shares, but, in order for the
over-subscription privilege to come into effect a stockholder must have fully
exercised the basic subscription privilege. The offer expired on June 15, 1998.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Continued)
Note 5 - Interest from Related Party
On September 16, 1998, the Company received a payoff in full of a mortgage
receivable encumbering a property owned by a related party. The principal amount
paid off and received by the Company was $7,582,000. The mortgage receivable was
acquired during fiscal 1993 at a discount of $3,738,400 which was being
amortized over the life of the mortgage. The Company realized interest income on
this transaction in the amount of $2,080,918, which represents the unamortized
balance of the discount. Such amount is included in interest from related party
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Note 6 - Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 130
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income, which is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1997. Statement No. 130 establishes standards for reporting
comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose
financial statements and requires that all components of comprehensive income be
reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as
other financial statements. The Company adopted Statement No. 130 as of January
1, 1998. At September 30, 1998, accumulated other comprehensive income, which is
solely comprised of the net unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities was
$107,740.
Note 7 - Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 131
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 131,
Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, which is
effective for financial statements issued for years beginning after December 15,
1997. Statement No. 131 establishes standards for the way that public business
enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial
statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about
operating segments in interim financial reports. It also establishes standards
for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major
customers. Statement No. 131 is effective for financial statements for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1997, and therefore the Company will adopt
the new requirements retroactively in 1998. Management has not completed its
review of Statement No. 131, but does not anticipate that the adoption of this
statement will have a significant effect on the Company's reported segments.
Note 8 - Subsequent Event
On October 30, 1998, the Company sold a property located in the State of
Washington for a sales price of $1,500,000 and will recognize a gain of
approximately $1,200,000 during the December 1998 quarter. In addition, a second
mortgage receivable the Company held on the property was paid off as part of the
sale. At September 30, 1998, the outstanding balance of this mortgage receivable
was $36,600.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1998, the Company's primary sources of liquidity are
approximately $18,990,000 in cash and cash equivalents, and funds available
under a revolving credit facility (of which the entire $9,000,000 facility was
available at September 30, 1998). Other sources of liquidity are cash generated
from operating activities and funds obtainable from mortgages to be secured by
real estate investments.
On June 22, 1998, the Company sold 1,331,733 shares of Common Stock at $13.25
per share in a rights offering to its shareholders. The net proceeds of
approximately $17,470,000 (after expenses) was used to repay the $6,985,000
outstanding under the revolving credit facility and the balance is to be used
for the acquisition of additional properties. The Company purchased two
properties during the last week of June 1998. The purchase price of one property
was $1,970,000, which was paid in cash at the closing. A $1,285,000 first
mortgage loan secured by the property was obtained in September 1998. The
purchase price of the other property was $3,525,000, which was paid in part by a
$2,450,000 first mortgage loan secured by the property and the balance in cash.
On October 2, 1998, the Company purchased an additional property for a purchase
price of $900,000 which was paid in cash. On October 30, 1998, the Company sold
a property located in the State of Washington for a sales price of $1,500,000
and will recognize a gain of approximately $1,200,000 during the December 1998
quarter.
In March, 1996 the Company entered into a $5 million revolving credit agreement
("Credit Agreement") with Bank Leumi Trust Company of New York ("Bank Leumi").
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement the Company could add additional lenders
to provide a maximum total facility of $15,000,000. In June 1997, the Company
closed on a $4,000,000 participation interest with Commercial Bank of New York
(formerly First Bank of the Americas), increasing the total facility to
$9,000,000. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement provides the Company with
funds, when needed, to acquire additional properties. The Credit Agreement
matures February 28, 1999 with a right for the Company to extend the Credit
Agreement until February 29, 2000.
The Company is currently in various stages of negotiation for the acquisition of
additional net leased properties. Cash provided from operations and the
Company's cash position will provide funds for cash distributions to
stockholders and operating expenses. These sources of funds, funds available
under the Credit Agreement, and funds derived from mortgage financings will
provide funds for additional property acquisitions. It will continue to be the
Company's policy to make sufficient cash distributions to stockholders in order
for the Company to maintain its real estate investment trust status under the
Internal Revenue Code.
<PAGE>
In connection with the lease agreements with Total Petroleum, Inc. ("Total
Petroleum") consummated in 1991, the Company agreed to expend certain funds to
remediate environmental problems at certain locations net leased to Total
Petroleum. It was agreed that the net cost to the Company would not exceed
$350,000 per location, with any excess being the responsibility of Total
Petroleum. At that time the Company deposited $2,000,000 with an independent
escrow agent to insure compliance by the Company with its obligations with
respect to the environmental clean up. At September 30, 1998, there are two
locations which require additional remediation efforts. The Company believes the
$791,000 held by the escrow agent will be adequate to cover the Company's
responsibility to pay for the environmental costs at these two locations.
There will be no effect on the Company's liquidity relating to the year 2000
issue because during 1997 the Company acquired computer hardware and software to
handle the Company's accounting and real estate management. The computer
software is capable of handling all issues relating to the year 2000.
Non-compliance with the year 2000 issue by third parties or tenants with whom
the Company has a relation will not have a material effect on the Company's
business, financial condition or results of operations.

Results of Operations
Nine and three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997
Rental income increased by $1,216,084 and $630,741 to $5,165,813 and $1,897,958
for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1998 from $3,949,729 and
$1,267,217 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1997 resulting
primarily from the acquisition of three properties in 1998 and two properties in
1997, offset in part by the sale of a property during 1997.
On September 16, 1998, the Company received a payoff in full of a mortgage
receivable, which had previously been acquired at a discount. Included in
interest from related party for the 1998 periods is $2,080,918, which represents
the unamortized balance of the discount.
Interest and other income increased by $127,760 and $111,366 to $177,910 and
$129,069, due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents available for
investment. Such investments were made primarily from the proceeds realized by
the Company from the sale of common shares through the rights offering.
Increases in depreciation and amortization expense of $252,369 and $116,351 for
the nine and three months ended September 30, 1998 to $1,006,949 and $368,827
results primarily from depreciation on five properties acquired during 1998 and
1997, offset in part by the sale of one property during 1997.
The increases in interest-mortgages payable to $1,499,120 and $560,703 for the
nine and three months ended September 30, 1998 from $1,157,027 and $368,788 in
the prior nine and three month periods is due to mortgages placed on four of the
properties acquired during 1998 and 1997, offset in part by the sale of one
property during 1997.
Interest-bank note payable amounted to $257,913 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998, resulting from borrowings under the Credit Agreement.
Borrowings were made to facilitate the purchase of one property in 1998 and two
properties in 1997. The $6,985,000 outstanding note balance was repaid June 22,
1998 with a portion of the proceeds realized by the Company from the sale of
common shares through the rights offering.
General and administrative expenses increased by $14,596 and $18,181 to $498,615
and $168,300 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1998,
respectively. These increases were due to a combination of factors including an
increase in personnel costs as the Company's level of activities increased.
At September 30, 1998 the Company owns three properties which had been leased to
a retail chain of stores. Since the expiration of the initial term of these
leases on December 31, 1996, two of these stores have been re-leased and one
remains vacant. The Company has determined that the estimated fair value of
these properties are lower than their carrying amounts and thus, the Company has
taken a provision for the differences. The total provision taken on these three
properties amounts to $156,832. There was no comparable provision in the nine
months ended September 30, 1997.
On August 5, 1997, the property owned by a limited liability company in which
the Company was a majority member was sold and a gain of $599,251 was realized
on the sale. The Company's share of the gain is $383,915 (after deducting the
minority interest share of the gain of $215,336). There was no comparable gain
in the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
