and SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Quarter Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
1. Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do
not include all of the information and note disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles. The financial statements
reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the
results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997, may not be indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. Amounts as of
December 31, 1996, included in the financial statements, have been derived
from audited financial statements as of that date.
These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Form 10-K of
Commercial Net Lease Realty, Inc. (the "Company") for the year ended
December 31, 1996.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Earnings per share are calculated based upon the weighted average number
of shares outstanding during each period. Stock options outstanding are
not included since their inclusion would not result in a material dilution
of earnings per share.
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, Earnings Per Share.
The Statement, which is effective for fiscal years ending after December
15, 1997, provides for a revised computation of earnings per share. The
Company will adopt this Standard in 1997 and does not expect compliance
with such Standard to have a material effect, if any, on the Company's
earnings per share.
2. Leases:
The Company generally leases its land and buildings to operators of major
retail businesses. The leases are accounted for under the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, Accounting for Leases.
As of March 31, 1997, 129 of the leases have been classified as operating
leases and 80 leases have been classified as direct

2. Leases - Continued:
financing leases. For the leases classified as direct financing leases,
the building portions of the leases are accounted for as direct financing
leases while the land portions of 53 of these leases are accounted for as
operating leases. Substantially all leases have initial terms of 15 to 20
years (expiring between 1997 and 2020) and provide for minimum rentals.
In addition, the majority of the leases provide for contingent rentals
and/or scheduled rent increases over the terms of the leases. The tenant
is also generally required to pay all property taxes and assessments,
substantially maintain the interior and exterior of the building and carry
insurance coverage for public liability, property damage, fire and
extended coverage. The lease options generally allow tenants to renew the
leases for two to four successive five-year periods subject to
substantially the same terms and conditions as the initial lease.
3. Real Estate Leased to Others:
Accounted for Using the Operating Method - Land and buildings on operating
leases consisted of the following at (dollars in thousands):
March 31, December 31,
1997 1996
------------ --------------
Land $161,932 $138,520

Accumulated depreci-
ation (8,924) (8,078)
------- ---------
$319,709 $269,031
Some leases provide for scheduled rent increase throughout the lease term.
Such amounts are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the
leases. For the quarter ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Company
recognized $704,000 and $473,000 respectively, of such income.

4. Notes Payable:
In September 1996, the Company entered into an amended and restated loan
agreement for a $150,000,000 revolving credit facility (the "Credit
Facility") which expires on June 30, 1998 and provides for an interest
rate equal to 160 basis points above LIBOR or the lender's prime rate,
whichever the Company selects. As of March 31, 1997 and December 31,
1996, the outstanding principal balance was $82,600,000 and $58,700,000,
respectively, plus accrued interest of $240,000 and $192,000,
respectively.
5. Related Party Transactions:
During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company acquired 15
properties from unrelated, third parties for purchase prices totalling
$61,510,000. In connection with the acquisition of these 15 properties,
the Company paid CNL Realty Advisors, Inc. $1,230,000 in acquisition fees
and expense reimbursement fees (representing 1.5% and 0.5%, respectively,
of the cost of the properties).
In January 1997, the Company sold its property in Foley, Alabama, for
$570,000 and received net proceeds of $551,000, resulting in a gain of
$271,000 for financial reporting purposes. In connection with the sale of
this property, the Company paid CNL Realty Advisors, Inc. $11,400 in
disposition fees.

6. Commitments and Contingencies:
As of March 31, 1997, the Company had entered into agreements to purchase
17 additional properties for an estimated aggregate amount of $42,955,000.
In connection with the acquisition of 12 of these properties, the Company
was contingently liable for $2,806,000 related to bank letters of credit
which guarantee the Company's obligation under the purchase agreements to
acquire these properties. In addition, the Company was contingently
liable for $1,805,000 relating to its obligations under a purchase
agreement to acquire one property.
As of March 31, 1997, the Company owned four land parcels which are leased
to tenants who are obligated to develop a building on the respective land
parcels. The Company has agreed to acquire the completed buildings for an
aggregate amount of up to $8,583,000, upon which time rental income will
increase for each of the properties.
7. Subsequent Events:
In April 1997, the Company declared dividends to its shareholders of
$7,018,102 or $.30 per share of common stock, payable in May 1997.
In addition, in April 1997, the Company filed a shelf registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission which permits the
issuance by the Company of up to $300,000,000 in debt and equity
securities (which includes approximately $37,000,000 of unissued debt and
equity securities under the Company's existing $200,000,000 shelf
registration statement).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Introduction
Commercial Net Lease Realty, Inc. (the "Company") is an equity real estate
investment trust that acquires, owns and manages high-quality, freestanding
properties leased to major retail businesses under long-term commercial net
leases. As of March 31, 1997, the Company owned 209 properties (the
"Properties") each of which are leased to major retail businesses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General. Historically, the Company's only demand for funds has been for
the payment of operating expenses and dividends, for property acquisitions and
for the payment of interest on its outstanding indebtedness. Generally, cash
needs for items other than property acquisitions have been met from operations
and property acquisitions have been funded by equity offerings, bank borrowings
and, to a lesser extent, from internally generated funds. Potential future
sources of capital include proceeds from public or private offerings of the
Company's debt or equity securities, secured or unsecured borrowings from banks
or other lenders, or the sale of Properties, as well as undistributed funds from
operations. For the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Company
generated $7,838,000 and $4,852,000, respectively, in net cash provided by
operating activities. The increase in cash from operations for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996, is
primarily a result of changes in revenues and expenses as discussed in "Results
of Operations."
The Company's leases typically provide that the tenant bears
responsibility for substantially all property costs and expenses associated with
ongoing maintenance and operation, including utilities, property taxes and
insurance. In addition, the Company's leases generally provide that the tenant
is responsible for roof and structural repairs. Certain of the Company's
Properties are subject to leases under which the Company retains responsibility
for certain costs and expenses associated with the Property. Because many of
the Properties which are subject to leases that place these responsibilities on
the Company are recently constructed, management anticipates that capital
demands to meet obligations with respect to these Properties will be minimal for
the foreseeable future and can be met with funds from operations and working
capital. The Company may be required to use bank borrowings or other sources of
capital in the event of unforeseen significant capital expenditures.
Debt and Equity Securities. In February 1997, the Company filed a
prospectus supplement to its $200,000,000 shelf registration and issued
2,300,000 shares of common stock and received gross proceeds of $34,787,000.
In addition, in March 1997, the Company issued an additional 330,000 shares
of common
10
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued
stock in connection with the underwriters' overallotment option and received
gross proceeds of $4,991,000. In connection with the offering, the Company
incurred stock issuance costs totalling $2,108,000, consisting primarily of
underwriters' commissions and fees, legal and accounting fees and printing
expenses. Proceeds from the offering were used to pay down the Company's credit
facility. In April 1997, the Company filed a shelf registration statement with
the Securities and Exchange Commission which permits the issuance by the Company
of up to $300,000,000 in debt and equity securities (which includes
approximately $37,000,000 of unissued debt and equity securities under the
Company's existing $200,000,000 shelf registration statement).
Property Acquisitions and Commitments. During the quarter ended March 31,
1997, the Company borrowed $62,900,000 under its credit facility to acquire 15
Properties (two Eckerd drugstores, one OfficeMax office supply store, one Good
Guys consumer electronics store, two Best Buy consumer electronics stores, one
Kroger grocery store and eight independently operated grocery stores leased to
or partially guaranteed by SuperValu, Inc.
As of March 31, 1997, the Company owned four land parcels which are leased
to tenants who are obligated to develop a building on the respective land
parcels. The Company has agreed to acquire the completed buildings for an
aggregate amount of up to $8,583,000, at which time rental income will increase
for each of the Properties.
As of March 31, 1997, the Company had entered into agreements to purchase
17 additional properties for an estimated aggregate amount of $42,955,000. The
purchase of these properties is subject to conditions relating to completion of
development activities, review of title and obtaining title insurance,
engineering and environmental inspections and other matters.
In addition to the 17 properties under contract and the four buildings
under construction as of March 31, 1997, the Company is currently negotiating
the acquisition of a number of prospective properties. The Company may elect to
acquire these prospective properties or other additional properties (or
interests therein) in the future. Such property acquisitions are expected to be
the primary demand for additional capital in the future. The Company
anticipates that it may engage in equity or debt financing, through either
public or private offerings of its securities for cash, issuance of such
securities in exchange for assets, or a combination of the foregoing. Subject
to the constraints imposed by the Company's $150,000,000 credit facility and
long-term, fixed rate financing, the Company may enter into additional financing
arrangements.
In January 1997, the Company sold its property in Foley, Alabama, for
$570,000 and received net sales proceeds of $551,000, resulting in a gain of
$271,000 for financial reporting purposes.
11
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued
The Company reinvested the proceeds to acquire an additional property and
structured the transaction to qualify as a like-kind exchange transaction for
federal income tax purposes.
Management believes that the Company's current capital resources
(including cash on hand), coupled with the Company's borrowing capacity, are
sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.
Dividends. One of the Company's primary objectives, consistent with its
policy of retaining sufficient cash for reserves and working capital purposes,
is to distribute a substantial portion of its funds available from operations to
its stockholders in the form of dividends. For the quarters ended March 31,
1997 and 1996, the Company declared and paid dividends to its stockholders of
$6,229,000 and $3,382,000, respectively, or $.30 and $29., respectively, per
share of common stock. In April 1997, the Company declared dividends to its
shareholders of $7,018,000 or $.30 per share of common stock, payable in May
1997.
Results of Operations
During the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Company owned and
leased 210 (including one property which was sold during 1997) and 167
Properties, respectively, to operators of major retail businesses. In
connection therewith, during the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the
Company earned $10,815,000 and $6,728,000, respectively, in rental income from
operating leases and earned income from direct financing leases. The increase
in rental and earned income during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, is
primarily a result of the facts that (i) the 40 Properties acquired and nine
buildings upon which construction was completed during 1996 were operational for
a full quarter in 1997 and (ii) the Company acquired 15 Properties during the
quarter ended March 31, 1997. Rental and earned income are expected to increase
as the Company acquires additional properties and due to the fact that the 15
Properties acquired during the quarter ended March 31, 1997 will contribute to
the Company's income for a full fiscal quarter in future quarters.
The Company incurred $2,363,000 and $1,460,000 in interest expense for the
quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Interest expense
increased during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, primarily as a result of
higher average borrowing levels on the Company's credit facility. However, the
increase was partially offset by a decrease in the average interest rates of the
Company's credit facility.
During the quarter ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, operating expenses,
including depreciation and amortization, were $2,179,000 and $1,474,000,
respectively (19.8% and 21.3%, respectively, of gross operating revenues). The
increase in the dollar amount of operating expenses for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997, as
12
<PAGE>
Results of Operations - Continued
compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996, is primarily attributable to the
increase in depreciation expense as a result of the additional Properties
acquired during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, and a full quarter of
depreciation expense relating to the 40 Properties and nine buildings acquired
during 1996. The increase is also attributable to an increase in amortization
expense as a result of the amortization of loan costs relating to the Company's
fixed rate financing and amendment to the Company's credit facility. In
addition, advisory fees increased as a result of increased funds from operations
for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, Earnings Per Share. The Statement, which
is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 1997, provides for a
revised computation of earnings per share. The Company will adopt this Standard
in 1997 and does not expect compliance with such Standard to have a material
effect, if any, on the Company's earnings per share.
