Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.
Results of Operations. IRET had net taxable earnings for
its first quarter of Fiscal 1996 of $1,009,468, compared to
$844,755 for the same period of the prior fiscal year, an
increase of 19%.
Funds from operations (taxable income increased by non-cash deductions of
depreciation and amortization, less extraordinary income items) increased to
$1,505,468 from the year earlier figure of $1,294,755, an increase of 16%.
This increase in earnings and Funds From Operations resulted from:
- the addition of the Pine Cone and West Stonehill
apartment complexes to our portfolio. During the
first month of ownership, earnings are favorably
influenced because rental income is received in
full, but many of the rental expenses are not
reflected until the following month.
- a continued strong rental market for most of our
properties. Occupancy is at or above normal levels
and we continue to seek rent increases.
We continue to be pleased with the performance of our
portfolio. The continued significant expansion of real
estate investments by IRET will result in important earnings
increases in the years ahead. For the short run, net taxable
earnings will grow at a modest level.
A considerable amount of capital is being invested in
constructing new properties and no "income" can be recorded
on this capital until the property is completed and begins
to produce rental income.
IRET has received notice that one of its tenants - Smith
Home Furnishings - has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy
production. The tenant has indicated that it plans to
continue with our Boise, Idaho, store. If so, IRET will
receive the agreed rent, but there is the possibility of a
default and the necessity to re-rent the property.
Financial Condition. IRET's liquidity and capital resources
remain strong and the Trust will close on the purchase of a
substantial amount of real estate investments during the
balance of this fiscal year. Comparative balance sheet
figures are:

Consolidated Financial Reports. The Financial Statements
shown in this report consolidate IRET's financial report
with those of the seven limited partnerships of which IRET
is the General Partner and creditor.
Sale of Properties. During the first quarter, IRET did not
sell any of its properties, but an agreement to sell an
office building at 108 Burdick Expressway East in Minot for
$325,000 has been entered into. The gain on this sale will
be reported in the second quarter.
The following new investments were added to our portfolio
during the first quarter and are producing income:
- Barnes & Noble, Omaha, NE
Cost: $3,675,000
15 yr. lease
Return to IRET: 13.82%
- West Stonehill, St. Cloud, MN
Cost: $11,000,000
Units: 313
Return to IRET: 12.77%
- 18 Plex, Minot, ND
Cost: $590,000
Units: 18
The following properties are under construction:
- Stone Container ($4,850,000 commercial building
in Fargo, ND)
- 49-unit apartment complex in Bismarck, ND
- Land purchased in Douglasville, Georgia, to
construct a retirement center
- 196-unit apartment complex in Minot, ND
- Land in Grand Forks, ND, and Billings, MT,
to construct apartment complexes
Dividends. IRET paid a regular dividend of 8.75 cents, plus
a special dividend of .5 cents, for a total dividend of 9.25
cents per share on July 1, 1995, to shareholders of record
at the close of business on June 23, 1995. This was in
increase from the 8.625 cents per share dividend paid on
April 1, 1995, and was the 97th consecutive quarterly
dividend paid by IRET.
