DUKE-WEEKS REALTY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included
herein have been prepared by Duke-Weeks Realty Corporation (the
"Company") without audit. The statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q
and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders.
THE COMPANY
The Company's rental operations are conducted through Duke-Weeks
Realty Limited Partnership ("DWRLP"), of which the Company owns
86.9% at September 30, 2000. The remaining interests in DWRLP are
exchangeable for shares of the Company's common stock on a one-for-
one basis. The Company conducts service operations through Duke
Realty Services Limited Partnership and Duke Construction Limited
Partnership, in which the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Duke
Services, Inc., is the sole general partner. The consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. The equity interests in
these majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries not owned by the
Company are reflected as minority interests in the consolidated
financial statements.
2. LINES OF CREDIT
The Company has the following lines of credit available (in
thousands):
Outstanding
Borrowing Maturity Interest at September
Description Capacity Date Rate 30, 2000
------------------------ --------- ----------- -------- ------------
Unsecured Line of Credit $450,000 April 2001 LIBOR + .70% $436,000
Unsecured Line of Credit $300,000 June 2001 LIBOR + .90% $ 30,000
Secured Line of Credit $150,000 January 2003 LIBOR + 1.05% $ 32,026
The lines of credit are used to fund development and acquisition of
additional rental properties and to provide working capital.
The $450 million line of credit allows the Company an option to
obtain borrowings from the financial institutions that participate
in the line of credit at rates lower than the stated interest rate,
subject to certain restrictions. Amounts outstanding on the line of
credit at September 30, 2000 are at LIBOR + .51% to .70%.

<PAGE>
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company provides management, maintenance, leasing,
construction, and other tenant related services to properties in
which certain executive officers have continuing ownership
interests. The Company was paid fees totaling $1.7 million and $2.0
million for such services for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 and 1999, respectively. Management believes the terms for such
services are equivalent to those available in the market. The
Company has an option to purchase the executive officers' interest
in each of these properties which expires October 2003. The option
price of each property was established at the date the option was
granted.
At September 30, 2000, other assets included outstanding loan
advances totaling $2.4 million due from a related party, under a
$5.7 million demand loan agreement. The loan bears interest at
LIBOR plus 2.10% and is secured by real estate assets held by the
related entity, which the Company has arrangements to acquire in
future periods. Interest earned under the agreement and included in
the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations
totaled $173,705 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.
4. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net
income available for common shareholders by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per
share is computed by dividing the sum of net income available for
common shareholderss and minority interest in earnings of unitholders,
by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and
dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the period.
The following table reconciles the components of basic and diluted
net income per common share for the three and nine months ended
September 30 (in thousands):

------- ------- ------- -------
Weighted average number of
common shares and dilutive

======= ======= ======= =======
The Preferred D Series Convertible stock and the Series G preferred
limited partner units were anti-dilutive at September 30, 2000;
therefore, no conversion to common shares is included in weighted
dilutive potential common shares outstanding.
5. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company is engaged in four operating segments; the ownership and
rental of office, industrial and retail real estate investments and
the providing of various real estate services such as property
- 7 -
<PAGE>
management, maintenance, leasing and construction management to
third-party property owners ("Service Operations"). The Company's
reportable segments offer different products or services and are
managed separately because each requires different operating
strategies and management expertise. There are no material
intersegment sales or transfers.
Non-segment revenue to reconcile to total revenue consists mainly
of equity in earnings of unconsolidated companies. Non-segment
assets to reconcile to total assets consist of corporate assets
including cash, deferred financing costs and investments in
unconsolidated companies.
The Company assesses and measures segment operating results based
on an industry performance measure referred to as Funds From
Operations ("FFO"). The National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts defines FFO as net income or loss, excluding
gains or losses from debt restructuring and sales of depreciated
operating property, plus operating property depreciation and
amortization and adjustments for minority interest and
unconsolidated companies on the same basis. FFO is not a measure of
operating results or cash flows from operating activities as
measured by generally accepted accounting principles, is not
necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and
should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure
of liquidity. Interest expense and other non-property specific
revenues and expenses are not allocated to individual segments in
determining the Company's performance measure.
The revenues and FFO for each of the reportable segments for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, and the
assets for each of the reportable segments as of September 30, 2000
and December 31, 1999, are summarized as follows (in thousands):

6. REAL ESTATE ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
In order to redeploy capital, the Company has an active sales
program through which it is continually pursuing favorable
opportunities to dispose of real estate assets that do not meet
long-term investment objectives of the Company. At September 30,
2000, the Company had 15 industrial, 17 office and three retail
properties comprising approximately 3.9 million square feet held
for sale. Of these properties, six build-to-suit industrial, four
build-to-suit office and two build-to-suit retail properties were
under development at September 30, 2000. Net operating income
(defined as total property revenues, less property expenses, which
include real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, property
management, utilities, insurance and other expenses) of the
properties held for sale for the nine months ended September 30,
2000, was approximately $9.8 million. Net book value of the
properties held for sale at September 30, 2000, was $130.3 million.
There can be no assurances that such properties will be sold.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT
--------------------------------------
The Board of Directors
DUKE-WEEKS REALTY CORPORATION:
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Duke-
Weeks Realty Corporation and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2000,
the related condensed consolidated statements of operations for the
three months and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the
related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, and the related
condensed consolidated statement of shareholders' equity for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000. These condensed consolidated
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company'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 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 condensed consolidated financial
statements referred to above 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 of Duke-Weeks
Realty Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999, 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 January 25, 2000, 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, 1999 is
fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the
consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
--------
The Company's operating results depend primarily upon income from
the rental operations of its industrial, office and retail
properties located in its primary markets. This income from rental
operations is substantially influenced by the supply and demand for
the Company's rental space in its primary markets. In addition, the
Company's continued growth is dependent upon its ability to
maintain occupancy rates and increase rental rates of its in-
service portfolio and to continue development and acquisition of
additional rental properties.
The Company's primary markets have continued to offer strong and
stable local economies and have provided attractive new development
opportunities because of their established manufacturing base,
skilled work force and moderate labor costs. The Company expects to
continue to maintain its overall occupancy levels and also expects
to be able to increase rental rates as leases are renewed or new
leases are executed. This combination should improve the Company's
results of operations from its in-service properties. The Company's
strategy for continued growth also includes developing and
acquiring additional rental properties in its primary markets.
The Company tracks same property performance which compares those
properties that were in-service for all of a calendar two-year
period. The net operating income from the same property portfolio
increased 4.75% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
The following table sets forth information regarding the Company's
in-service portfolio of rental properties as of September 30, 2000
and 1999 (in thousands, except percentages):

Rental Operations
-----------------
Rental Operations revenue increased to $185.8 million from $160.3
million for the three months ended September 30, 2000, compared to
the same period in 1999. This increase is primarily due to the
increase in the number of in-service properties during the
respective periods. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had 878
properties in service compared to 841 properties at September 30,
1999. The following is a summary of the Company's acquisition and

=== ======
Rental property, real estate tax and depreciation and amortization
expenses increased for the three months ended September 30, 2000,
compared to the same period in 1999, due to the increase in the
number of in-service properties during the respective periods.
The $10.4 million increase in interest expense is primarily
attributable to higher outstanding debt balances associated with
the financing of the Company's investment activities. The increased
balances include $150 million of unsecured debt issued in the
fourth quarter of 1999, and increased borrowings on the Company's
lines of credit. These higher borrowing costs were partially
offset by the capitalization of interest on increased property
development activities.
As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from Rental
Operations decreased $1.8 million from $60.1 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1999, to $58.3 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2000.
Service Operations
------------------
Service Operations revenues increased by $6.5 million from $15.4
million for the three months ended September 30, 1999, to $21.9
million for the three months ended September 30, 2000, primarily as
a result of increases in construction and development income from
increased third-party construction.
- 16 -
<PAGE>
Service Operations operating expenses increased from $11.5 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1999, to $13.4 million for
the three months ended September 30, 2000, primarily due to
increases in payroll and maintenance expenses due to the overall
growth of the Company and the increased portfolio of buildings
associated with this growth.
As a result, earnings from Service Operations increased from $3.9
million for the three months ended September 30, 1999, to $8.5
million for the three months ended September 30, 2000.
Other Income and Expenses
-------------------------
Interest income increased from $699,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999, to $1.6 million for the same period in 2000
primarily through earnings on funds deposited in tax deferred
exchange escrows of $794,000.
The Company has a disposition strategy to pursue favorable
opportunities to dispose of real estate assets that no longer meet
long-term investment objectives of the Company, which resulted in
net sales proceeds of $130.8 million and a net gain of $4.5 million
during the three months ended September 30, 2000.
In conjunction with this disposition strategy, included in net real
estate investments are 35 buildings with a net book value of $130.3
million which were classified as held for sale by the Company at
September 30, 2000. The Company expects to complete these and other
dispositions and use the proceeds to fund future investments in
real estate assets.
Net Income Available for Common Shareholders
--------------------------------------------
Net income available for common shareholders for the three months
ended September 30, 2000, was $45.1 million compared to net income
available for common shareholders of $41.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1999. This increase results primarily
from the operating result fluctuations in rental and service
operations explained above.
COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 TO NINE MONTHS ENDED

Rental Operations
-----------------
Rental Operations revenue increased to $538.9 million from $369.4
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to
the same period in 1999. This increase is primarily due to the
increase in the number of in-service properties during the
respective periods, particularly, the revenues from the 335
buildings obtained in the Weeks Merger, for which nine months of
operations are included in 2000 compared to three months in 1999.
As of September 30, 2000, the Company had 878 properties in service
compared to 841 properties at September 30, 1999.
Rental property, real estate tax and depreciation and amortization
expenses increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
compared to the same period in 1999 due to the increase in the
number of in-service properties during the respective periods.
- 17 -
<PAGE>
The $46.2 million increase in interest expense is primarily
attributable to higher outstanding debt balances associated with
the financing of the Company's investment activities. The increased
balances include $450 million of unsecured debt issued in 1999, the
assumption of $185 million of secured debt and $287 million of
unsecured debt in the merger with Weeks Corporation in July 1999,
and increased borrowings on the Company's lines of credit. These
higher borrowing costs were partially offset by the capitalization
of interest on increased property development activities.
As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from Rental
Operations increased $32.2 million from $136.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999, to $168.3 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000.
Service Operations
------------------
Service Operations revenues increased by $24.4 million from $36.6
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, to $61.0
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, primarily as
a result of increases in construction and development income from
increased third-party construction.
Service Operations operating expenses increased from $24.1 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, to $36.2 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, primarily due to
increases in payroll and maintenance expenses due to the overall
growth of the Company and the increased portfolio of buildings
associated with this growth.
As a result, earnings from Service Operations increased from $12.5
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, to $24.8
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.
Other Income and Expenses
-------------------------
Interest income increased from $1.8 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999, to $5.5 million for the same period in
2000 primarily through earnings on funds deposited in tax deferred
exchange escrows of $3.3 million.
The Company has a disposition strategy to pursue favorable
opportunities to dispose of real estate assets that no longer meet
long-term investment objectives of the Company, which resulted in
net sales proceeds of $345.1 million and a net gain of $22.6
million during the nine months ended September 30, 2000.
Net Income Available for Common Shareholders
--------------------------------------------
Net income available for common shareholders for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 was $139.5 million compared $98.5 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. This increase results
primarily from the operating result fluctuations in rental and
service operations explained above.

The lines of credit are used to fund development and acquisition of
additional rental properties and to provide working capital.
The $450 million line of credit allows the Company an option to
obtain borrowings from the financial institutions that participate
in the line of credit at rates lower than the stated interest rate,
subject to certain restrictions. Amounts outstanding on the line of
credit at September 30, 2000 are at LIBOR + .51% to .70%.
The Company currently has on file one Form S-3 Registration
Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Shelf
Registration") which has remaining availability as of September 30,
2000 of $793.0 million to issue common stock, preferred stock or
unsecured debt securities. The Company intends to issue additional
equity or debt under this Shelf Registration as market conditions
change and capital needs arise to fund the development and
acquisition of additional rental properties. The Company also plans
to file additional shelf registrations as necessary.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
Management believes that Funds From Operations ("FFO"), which is
defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
as net income or loss, excluding gains or losses from debt
restructuring and sales of depreciated property, plus operating
property depreciation and amortization and adjustments for minority
interest and unconsolidated companies on the same basis, is the
industry standard for reporting the operations of real estate
investment trusts.
The following table reflects the calculation of the Company's FFO
for the three and nine months ended September 30 as follows (in
thousands):

Financing activities (141,764) (50,873) (34,972) 350,796
The increase in FFO for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2000 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30,
1999, results primarily from the increased in-service rental
property portfolio as discussed above under "Results of
Operations."

While management believes that FFO is the most relevant and widely
used measure of the Company's operating performance, such amount
does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by
generally accepted accounting principles, should not be considered
as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's
operating performance, and is not indicative of cash available to
fund all cash flow needs.
ACCOUNTING CHANGES
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and for
Hedging Activities," effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. The statement will require the Company to recognize
all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives
that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income.
If the derivative is a hedge, then depending on the nature of the
hedge, changes in the fair value will either be offset through
earnings, against the change in fair value of hedged assets,
liabilities or firm commitments or recognized in other
comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in income.
The ineffective portion of a hedge's change in fair value will be
immediately recognized in income. The adoption of this statement
will not have a material impact on the Company's financial
statements.
