ALLIED CAPITAL COMMERCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1997
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. GENERAL
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements of Allied Capital Commercial Corporation and its subsidiaries (the
Company) contain all adjustments (consisting of only recurring accruals)
necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of
March 31, 1997 and the results of operations, and cash flows for the periods
indicated. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested
that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and consolidated notes thereto included in
the Company's December 31, 1996 Annual Report. The results of operations for
the three months ended March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results to be expected for the full year. Certain reclassifications
have been made to the 1996 consolidated financial statements in order to
conform to the 1997 presentation.
NOTE 2. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
The Company has an investment management agreement with Allied Capital
Advisers, Inc. (Advisers). Advisers, under the supervision of the Company's
board of directors, identifies, evaluates, structures and closes the
investments to be made by the Company, arranges debt and equity capital for the
Company, and is responsible for monitoring the investments made by the Company,
including portfolio management and servicing. The investment management
agreement may be terminated at any time, without penalty, on sixty days' notice
to Advisers if holders of two-thirds of the Company's shares vote to terminate
the agreement. In addition, this agreement will terminate automatically in the
event of its assignment.
Under the terms of its investment management agreement with Advisers, the
Company is obligated to pay fees on its consolidated invested assets at a rate
that approximates 2.5 percent per annum. However, in order for the Company to
provide loans to borrowers at lower interest rates and increase its
competitiveness in the marketplace, Advisers revised its fee schedule in 1996,
and revised it again on January 9, 1997 with the Company for all loans that
were originated or purchased on or after January 1, 1997. The revised fee
schedule reflects different types of management fee percentages based upon
certain characteristics of the outstanding loans held in the Company's
investment portfolio. The revised fees range from 0.5 percent of invested
assets to 3.5 percent of invested assets with a quarterly cap, at a rate of 2.5
percent per annum, on the total management fees payable to Advisers.
Management fees payable to Advisers with respect to the Company's holdings of
cash and interim investments have not been affected by these revisions to the
fee schedule. Management fees on cash and interim investments are payable,
quarterly in arrears, at a rate of approximately 0.5 percent per annum.
NOTE 3. INVESTMENTS IN LOANS
The Company's investments in loans consist of commercial real estate loans that
are either purchased from unrelated third parties or originated directly with
the borrower. As of March 31, 1997, approximately 58 percent of the Company's
portfolio of loans had fixed rates and 42 percent had adjustable interest
rates. In addition, as of March 31, 1997, approximately 18 percent, 13 percent
and 12 percent of the Company's portfolio were located in California, Virginia
and Maryland, respectively. In addition, loans for hotels, office buildings,
retail and industrial warehouses equaled 35 percent, 27 percent, 13 percent and
9 percent respectively, or 84 percent of the Company's portfolio as of March
31, 1997.

ALLIED CAPITAL COMMERCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1997
(UNAUDITED)
The Company generally defines impaired loans as those that are past due 120
days or more or loans that have been specifically identified. The reserve for
impaired loans has not been revised since December 31, 1996 and totaled
$1,454,000 as of March 31, 1997. As of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
loans that were not accruing interest equaled $10,649,000 and $10,978,000,
respectively.
NOTE 4. BONDS AND NOTES PAYABLE
BONDS PAYABLE. The minimum required payment to bond holders on a monthly basis
equals the sum of the total scheduled principal payments for the loans in the
pool and interest due on the bonds. The bonds stated interest rate is 6.92
percent per annum. The stated maturity for the bonds is February 25, 2003.
NOTES PAYABLE. The Company and Business Mortgage Investors, Inc. (BMI), have a
$40,000,000 revolving line of credit with a bank. The terms of the revolving
line of credit are interest only with all principal due at maturity. The
revolving line of credit bears interest at LIBOR plus 190 basis points, or 7.3
percent as of March 31, 1997, and expires in August 1997. As of March 31,
1997, the Company had borrowings under this revolving line of credit of
$25,200,000.
The Company, again in conjunction with BMI, has an approved credit facility
with Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital, Inc., whereby the Company and BMI can
borrow up to $150,000,000 through repurchase agreements using its investments
in loans as collateral. The terms of the repurchase agreements are interest
only with all principal due at maturity. The repurchase agreements bear
interest at LIBOR plus 112 basis points, or 6.5 percent, as of March 31, 1997.
As of March 31, 1997 the Company had borrowed $131,966,000 under the repurchase
agreements. The Company is currently renegotiating the terms of this credit
facility which expires on May 31, 1997.
NOTE 5. DISTRIBUTIONS
The Company's Board of Directors declared a first quarter dividend equivalent
to $0.51 per share. This dividend was paid on March 31, 1997 to shareholders
of record as of March 15, 1997. The Company paid cash of $5,862,000 and
distributed new shares of common stock, through its dividend reinvestment plan,
with a value of $1,425,000 for a total dividend equal to $7,287,000.
NOTE 6. NET INCOME PER SHARE
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No.128, "Earnings per Share" (SFAS 128). SFAS
128 is effective for financial statements for both interim and annual periods
ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS 128 modifies the method of calculation of
net income per share and also requires a reconciliation between basic and
diluted per share amounts. Early adoption of the statement prior to the end of
1997 is not allowed.

NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company had loan commitments outstanding equal to $29 million at March 31,
1997 to invest in various real estate loans with prospective companies.
The Company is party to certain lawsuits in connection with its business. While
the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot at this time be predicted with
certainty, management does not expect that these actions will have a material
effect upon the financial condition of the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
LOAN PORTFOLIO
The Company purchases or originates small business loans that are generally
secured by real estate and used in owner-operated or owner-managed small
businesses. The Company's loan terms include both fixed and variable rate type
loans. As of March 31, 1997, the Company's loan portfolio consisted of 58%
fixed rate loans and 42% variable rate loans, as compared to 57% fixed rate
loans and 43% variable rate loans as of December 31, 1996. The Company has
financed and continues to finance many different property types including
hotels and motels, office buildings, retail and convenience stores, warehouses,
medical offices, nursing homes and factories.
The Company makes investments across the nation and its loan portfolio has been
segregated into five regions: Northeast, Southeast, Central, Southwest and
West. As of March 31, 1997, the Company's loan concentration by region was
21%, 43%, 4%, 11% and 21%, respectively. This compares to the Company's loan
concentration by region as of December 31, 1996 of 20%, 40%, 5%, 13% and 22%
for the Northeast, Southeast, Central, Southwest and West regions,
respectively.
The Company invested $54.6 million in real estate loans during the first
quarter of 1997. After considering normal principal payments and early payoffs
of certain loans, the net increases in the Company's loan portfolio were $44.3
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.
As of March 31, 1997, 35%, 27% and 13% of the Company's loan portfolio was
invested in properties secured by hotels and motels, office buildings and
retail space, respectively, as compared to 39%, 21% and 12% for the same
categories as of December 31, 1996.
Loans greater than 120 days past due are considered to be impaired. The
Company does not accrue interest on these loans and does not accrue interest
for certain other loans that may be considered impaired. As of March 31, 1997,
loans that were not accruing interest totaled $11.0 million. The Company
generally makes every effort to work with the borrower in order to restore the
loan to a performing status before exercising other alternatives, such as
foreclosure on the property. The Company's loan loss reserve at March 31, 1997
and December 31, 1996 was approximately $1.5 million.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company uses its cash from operations to provide working capital to pay its
operating expenses, interest expense on outstanding indebtedness and to pay
dividends to its shareholders. The Company funds new loans from loan
repayments and through borrowings on its credit facilities. The Company has
two primary credit facilities that it shares with Business Mortgage Investors
(BMI). The first is a $40 million revolving line of credit with a bank (line
of credit). The second is a $150 million repurchase agreement (repurchase
facility), with an investment bank. At March 31, 1997 the Company had borrowed
$25 million and $132 million under the line of credit and repurchase facility,
respectively. The Company uses the line of credit and the repurchase facility
to warehouse loans until they can be permanently financed through the public
offering of debt, or through other means. As of March 31, 1997 the bonds
outstanding related to the Company's securitization transaction in 1995 totaled
$43.8 million.
The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure to
fluctuations in interest rates in anticipation of a future long-term financing.
As of March 31, 1997, the Company had a swap agreement with a notional amount
equal to $50 million. Subsequent to March 31, 1997, the Company entered into
three additional swap agreements with a total notional amount equal to $50
million. The Company pays third parties fixed rates ranging from 6.7% to 7.0%,
and receives from these third parties variable rates ranging from 5.7% to 5.8%
based upon the short-term LIBOR rate semi-annually pursuant to the swap
agreements. These swap agreements have the effect of hedging interest rate
exposure on fixed rate loans temporarily financed with the variable rate
warehouse facilities, and provides a hedge against changes in long-term
interest rates until such time as the loans are permanently financed and the
variable rate warehouse facilities are repaid. Management anticipates securing
additional long-term financing during late 1997.
7
<PAGE> 10
The Company plans to increase its outstanding indebtedness during the upcoming
year in order to finance new real estate investments and the Company is
currently negotiating with several new sources of debt capital. Management of
the Company believes that the cash flow from operations, and the availability
of its lines of credit are sufficient to enable the Company to meet its current
and anticipated future liquidity requirements including payment of dividends to
its shareholders.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company's primary focus is hard-to-finance real estate lending; however,
Advisers determined that the Company could make profitable loans in a narrow
segment of the marketplace focused on borrowers with stronger credit
characteristics. In order for the Company to compete for these lower-rate
loans, Advisers and the Company revised the Company's expense structure through
a revision to the investment management fee. The fee schedule was first
revised on May 3, 1996 and that schedule applied to all loans originated or
purchased on or after January 1, 1996. Advisers and the Company modified the
fees again in January 1997 for loans originated or purchased on or after
January 1, 1997.
The revised fee schedule tiers the management fee percentages payable to
Advisers, based upon certain characteristics of the outstanding loans held in
the Company's loan portfolio. The revised fee schedule is based upon credit
quality and other factors associated with the loans, and fees range from
approximately 0.5% per annum to 3.5% per annum on each individual loan. The
revised fee schedule places a quarterly cap, at a rate of approximately 2.5%
per annum, on the total management fees payable to Advisers with respect to the
Company's investment in loans. The new fee schedule does not alter the fees
charged on cash, temporary investments or other assets of the Company.
Comparison of 1997 and 1996
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 equaled $6.6 million or
$0.46 per share as compared to $6.9 million or $0.50 per share for 1996. The
decrease in first quarter earnings was a direct result of the recognition of
capital gain income resulting from the early repayment of loans purchased at a
discount. The Company reported capital gain income of $351,000 or $0.02 per
share for the first quarter of 1997, as compared to capital gain income of $1.8
million or $0.13 per share for the first quarter of 1996. Income from capital
gains is expected to increase during the remaining quarters of 1997, as the
Company anticipates prepayments of certain loans with unamortized purchased
discount; thus, the decrease in first quarter income is not considered to be
reflective of total expected earnings for the year. At March 31, 1997, loans
totaled $399.7 million, compared to $355.5 million at December 31, 1996.
Amortization of loan discount increased 32% to $1.7 million in 1997 as compared
to $1.3 million in 1996. The portfolio's weighted average yield, which
includes stated interest and loan discount amortization, was 12.9% at March 31,
1997 as compared to 13.4% at December 31, 1996.
Net margin on investments after deducting interest expense and provision for
loan losses was $8.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 as compared
to $7.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, an increase of 11%. Net
margin on investments as a percentage of total investment income was 72% and
77% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Net
margin on investments as a percent of total income is expected to decrease as
the Company leverages its equity capital with debt in order to increase its
loan portfolio, and increase the return on equity and returns to shareholders.
Interest expense increased $1.5 million to $3.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 from $1.9 million for the comparable period in 1996. The
Company is currently negotiating the terms under its credit facility that
expires at the end of May 1997, and management anticipates securing a credit
facility with an increased borrowing capacity and with similar terms.
FACTORS AFFECTING THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS
Interest rate fluctuations. Loans with variable interest rates may become
unattractive to some borrowers as market interest rates increase. Substantial
changes in market interest rates could result in greater rates of prepayments
of or

defaults on outstanding loans and may inhibit the expansion of the Company's
business and reduce its profitability. The Company also originates or
purchases loans with fixed rates of interest. Loans with fixed interest rates
that are financed with variable rate debt capital could expose the Company to
reduced net margins on its loans as interest rates increase. The Company
carefully monitors this exposure and endeavors to match fixed rate loans on a
long-term basis with fixed rate financing.
Competition. A large number of entities and individuals compete for the
opportunity to make the kinds of investments made by the Company. Many of
these entities and individuals have greater financial resources than the
combined resources of the Company. As a result of this competition, the
Company may from time to time be precluded from making otherwise attractive
investments on terms considered to be prudent in light of the risks to be
assumed. In 1997, the Company has experienced some pricing pressures in its
new loan originations; however, the Company has been able to offset these
pressures by negotiating for an improved fee arrangement with its external
management company, Allied Capital Advisers, Inc., and by increasing its debt
capital which improves returns to common shareholders.
Statements included in this filing concerning the Company's future prospects
