1.   ORGANIZATION, FORMATION AND STRUCTURE

ORGANIZATION

     Saul Centers, Inc. ("Saul Centers") was incorporated under the Maryland
General Corporation Law on June 10, 1993.  The authorized capital stock of Saul
Centers consists of 30,000,000 shares of common stock, having a par value of
$0.01 per share and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock.  Each holder of common
stock is entitled to one vote for each share held.   Saul Centers, together with
its wholly owned subsidiaries and the limited partnerships of which Saul Centers
or one of its subsidiaries is the sole general partner, are referred to
collectively as the "Company".   Saul Centers operates as a real estate
investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (a "REIT").


FORMATION AND STRUCTURE OF COMPANY

     Saul Centers was formed to continue and expand the shopping center business
previously owned and conducted by the B.F. Saul Real Estate Investment Trust,
the B.F. Saul Company, Chevy Chase Bank, F.S.B. and certain other affiliated
entities (collectively, "The Saul Organization").  On August 26, 1993, The Saul
Organization  transferred to Saul Holdings Limited Partnership, a newly formed
Maryland limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), and two newly formed
subsidiary limited partnerships (the "Subsidiary Partnerships") 26 shopping
center properties, one office property, one research park and one office/retail
property and the management functions related to the transferred properties.
Since its formation, the Company has purchased three additional community and
neighborhood shopping center properties, an office property and purchased a land
parcel which it developed into a community shopping center.  Therefore, as of
June 30, 1998, the Company's properties (the "Current Portfolio Properties")
consisted of 30 operating shopping center properties (the "Shopping Centers")
and four predominantly office properties (the "Office Properties").  To
facilitate the placement of collateralized mortgage debt, the Company
established Saul QRS, Inc. and SC Finance Corporation, each of which is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Saul Centers.  Saul QRS, Inc. was established to succeed to
the interest of Saul Centers as the sole general partner of Saul Subsidiary I
Limited Partnership.

     As a consequence of the transactions constituting the formation of the
Company, Saul Centers serves as the sole general partner of the Operating
Partnership and of Saul Subsidiary II Limited Partnership, while Saul QRS, Inc.,
Saul Centers' wholly owned subsidiary, serves as the sole general partner of
Saul Subsidiary I Limited Partnership.  The remaining limited partnership
interests in Saul Subsidiary I Limited Partnership and Saul Subsidiary II
Limited Partnership are held by the Operating Partnership as the sole limited
partner.  Through this structure, the Company owns 100% of the Current Portfolio
Properties.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

     The Company, which conducts all of its activities through its subsidiaries,
the Operating Partnership and Subsidiary Partnerships, engages in the ownership,
operation, management, leasing, acquisition, renovation, expansion, development
and financing of community and neighborhood shopping centers and office
properties, primarily in the Mid-Atlantic region.

     A majority of the Shopping Centers are anchored by several major tenants.
Eighteen of the 30 Shopping Centers are anchored by a grocery store and offer
primarily day-to-day necessities and services.  As of December 1997, no single
shopping center accounted for more than 10.6% of the total shopping center gross
leasable area.  Only one retail tenant, Giant Food at 6.5%, accounted for more
than 2.0% of total Company revenues.  No other retail tenants represented more
than 2.0% of total revenues for the year.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include
the accounts of Saul Centers, its subsidiaries, and the Operating Partnership
and Subsidiary Partnerships which are majority owned by Saul Centers.  All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

     Real estate investment properties are stated at the lower of depreciated
cost or fair value less cost to sell.  Management believes that these assets
have generally appreciated in value and, accordingly, the aggregate current
value exceeds their aggregate net book value and also exceeds the value of the
Company's liabilities as reported in these financial statements.  These
financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles, and accordingly, do not report the current value of the
Company's real estate assets.  Real estate investment properties are reviewed
for potential impairment losses whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  If the
sum of an individual property's undiscounted expected future cash flows is less
than its carrying amount, the Company's policy is to recognize an impairment
loss measured by the amount the depreciated cost of the property exceeds its
fair value.  Fair value is calculated as the present value of expected future
cash flows.

     Interest, real estate taxes and other carrying costs are capitalized on
projects under development and construction.  Once construction is substantially
completed and the assets are placed in service, their rental income, direct
operating expenses and depreciation are included in current operations.
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as

incurred. Interest expense capitalized during the three month periods ended June
30, 1998 and 1997, was $49,000 and $130,000, respectively.

     A project is considered substantially complete and available for occupancy
upon completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from the
cessation of major construction activity.  Substantially completed portions of a
project are accounted for as separate projects.  Depreciation is calculated
using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives of 33 to 50 years for
buildings and up to 20 years for certain other improvements.  Leasehold
improvements are amortized over the lives of the related leases using the
straight-line method.


ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ACCRUED INCOME

     Accounts receivable primarily represent amounts currently due from tenants
in accordance with the terms of the respective leases.  In addition, at June 30,
1998 accounts receivable included $1,685,000, representing minimum rental income
accrued on a straight-line basis to be paid by tenants over the terms of the
respective leases.  Receivables are reviewed monthly and reserves are created or
set up when, in the opinion of management, collection of the receivable is
doubtful.  Accounts receivable in the accompanying financial statements are
shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of  $562,000 at June 30, 1998.

DEFERRED DEBT COSTS

     Deferred debt costs consist of financing fees and costs incurred to obtain
long-term financing.  These fees and costs are being amortized over the terms of
the respective loans or agreements.  Deferred debt costs in the accompanying
financial statements are shown net of accumulated amortization of $340,000 at
June 30, 1998.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

     Rental and interest income is accrued as earned except when doubt exists as
to collectibility, in which case the accrual is discontinued.  When rental
payments due under leases vary from a straight-line basis, because of free rent
periods or stepped increases (excluding those increases which approximate
inflationary increases), income is recognized on a straight-line basis in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Expense recoveries
represent property operating expenses to be billed to tenants, including common
area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs.  Expense
recoveries are recognized in the period the expenses are incurred.  Percentage
rental income  is recognized in accordance with EITF 98-9, in the quarterly
periods in which a tenant's year-to-date sales exceed an annual sales target.
For periods prior to January 1, 1998, the Company recognized percentage rent
monthly on an accrual basis using estimates of tenants' annual sales based upon
prior year's sales results adjusted to give effect to current sales data.

INCOME TAXES

     The Company made an election to be treated, and intends to continue
operating so as to qualify as a REIT under sections 856 through 860 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its taxable year
ending December 31, 1993. A REIT generally will not be subject to federal income
taxation on that portion of its income that qualifies as REIT taxable income to
the extent that it distributes at least 95% of its REIT taxable income to
stockholders and complies with certain other requirements. Therefore, no
provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying financial
statements.

PER SHARE DATA

     Per share data is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share."  The Company has no dilutive securities, therefore, basic and diluted
earnings per share are identical.  Net income before minority interests is
presented on a fully converted basis, that is, assuming the limited partners
exercise their right to convert their partnership ownership into shares of Saul
Centers, and is computed using weighted average shares of 17,142,000 and
16,655,000, for the quarters and 17,015,000 and 16,621,000, for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Per share data relating to net
income after minority interests is computed using weighted average shares of
12,589,000 and 12,262,000, for the quarters and 12,542,000 and 12,228,000, for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.


RECLASSIFICATIONS

     Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial
statements to conform to the current year presentation.  The reclassifications
have no impact on operating results previously reported.

MINORITY INTERESTS - HOLDERS OF CONVERTIBLE LIMITED PARTNER UNITS IN THE
OPERATING PARTNERSHIP

     The Saul Organization has a 26.6% limited partnership interest, represented
by 4,580,000 convertible limited partnership units, in the Operating
Partnership, as of June 30, 1998.   These Convertible Limited Partnership Units
are convertible into shares of Saul Centers' common stock on a one-for-one
basis, provided  the rights may not be exercised at any time that The Saul
Organization owns, directly or indirectly, in the aggregate more than 24.9% of
the outstanding equity securities of Saul Centers.  The impact of The Saul
Organization's 26.6% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership
is reflected as minority interests in the accompanying financial statements.

DIRECTORS DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

     A Deferred Compensation Plan was established by Saul Centers, effective
January 1, 1994, for the benefit of its directors and their beneficiaries.  A
director may elect to defer all or part of his or her director's fees to be
earned subsequent to the election.  A director has the option to have deferred
director's fees paid in cash, in shares of common stock or in a combination of
cash and shares of common stock.  If the director elects to have the deferred
fees paid in stock, the number of shares allocated to the director is determined
based on the market value of the common stock on the day the deferred director's
fee was earned.  The Company has registered 70,000 shares for use under the
plan, all of which were authorized at June 30, 1998.  As of June 30, 1998,
46,000 shares had been credited to the directors' deferred fee accounts.


NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

  In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive
income in the Company's financial statements.  The Company adopted this standard
in the first quarter of 1998.  The Company had no comprehensive income.

  In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information" which 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 issued to
shareholders.  It also established standards for related disclosures about
products and services, geographic areas, and major customers.  Adoption of the
new standard is required for the December 1998 financial statements.  Because
SFAS 131 addresses only disclosure-related issues, its adoption will not have an
impact on the Company's financial condition or its results of operations.

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING METHOD

     On May 21, 1998, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) discussed Issue 98-9
"Accounting for Contingent Rent In Interim Financial Periods" and reached a
consensus that lessors should defer the accounting recognition of contingent
rent, such as percentage rent, until the specific tenant sales breakpoint target
is achieved.  The Company's prior accounting method, which was permitted under
generally accepted accounting principles, recognized percentage rent when a
tenant's achievement of its sales breakpoint was considered probable.  This EITF
consensus is being implemented retroactively to January 1, 1998, as a change in
accounting method.  Excluding a one-time cumulative catch-up adjustment, the new
accounting method is not expected to materially affect the amount of percentage
rent income reported on an annual basis but may have a larger impact on the
recognition of percentage rent income reported on an interim quarterly basis.
The change in accounting method has no impact on the Company's cash   

                                       12

flows. The comparative three month and six month period financial statements 
ending June 30, 1997 have not been restated. Had the accounting method been
retroactively applied, net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 would
have been $2,950,000, and net income for the three month and six month periods
ended June 30, 1997, would have been $2,146,000 and $4,546,000, respectively.


3.   CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS

     Construction in progress includes the costs of redeveloping the French
Market shopping center and other predevelopment project costs. Development costs
include direct construction costs and indirect costs such as architectural,
engineering, construction management and carrying costs consisting of interest,
real estate taxes and insurance.  Construction in progress balances as of June
30, 1998  and December 31, 1997 are as follows:

4.    NOTES PAYABLE

     Notes payable totaled $287.2 million at June 30, 1998, of which $268.6
million (93.5%) was fixed rate debt and $18.7 million (6.5%) was floating rate
debt.

     As of June 30, 1998, the Company had a $60 million unsecured revolving
credit facility with outstanding borrowings of $15.0 million and additional
borrowing availability of $45.0 million.  The line requires monthly interest
payments at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.5%.

     As of June 30, 1998, the scheduled maturities of all debt for years ending
December 31, were as follows:

5.   SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY AND MINORITY INTERESTS

     These financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles and accordingly do not report the current value
of the Company's real estate assets.  The Shareholders' Equity reported on the
Consolidated Balance Sheets does not reflect any increase in the value resulting
from the difference between the current value and the net book value of the
Company's assets.  Therefore Shareholder's Equity reported on the Consolidated
Balance Sheets does not reflect the market value of stockholders' investment in
the Company.

     The Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended June
30, 1998 includes a charge for minority interests of $1,827,000 consisting of
$1,149,000 related to The Saul Organization's share of the net income for the
1998 quarter and $678,000 related to distributions to minority interests in
excess of allocated net income for the 1998 quarter. The charge for the three
month period ended June 30, 1997 of $1,713,000 consists of $1,096,000 related to
The Saul Organization's share of net income for the 1997 quarter, and $617,000
related to distributions to minority interests in excess of allocated net income
for the 1997 quarter.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General
- -------

     The following discussion is based primarily on the consolidated financial
statements of Saul Centers, Inc. ("Saul Centers" and, together with its wholly
owned subsidiaries and the  limited partnerships of which it or one of its
wholly owned subsidiaries is the sole general partner, the "Company") as of June
30, 1998 and for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

    The Company's principal demands for liquidity are expected to be
distributions to its stockholders, debt service and loan repayments, expansion,
renovation, and redevelopment of the Current Portfolio Properties and selective
acquisition and development of additional properties.  In order to qualify as a
REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company must distribute to its
stockholders at least 95% of its "real estate investment trust taxable income,"
as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  The Company
anticipates that operating revenues will provide the funds necessary for
operations, debt service, distributions, and required recurring capital
expenditures.  Balloon principal repayments are expected to be funded by
refinancings.

    Management anticipates that during the current year the Company may: 1)
redevelop certain of the Shopping Centers, 2) develop additional freestanding
outparcels or expansions within certain of the Shopping Centers, 3) acquire
existing neighborhood and community shopping centers and/or office properties
and 4) develop new shopping center sites.  Acquisition and development of
properties are undertaken only after careful analysis and review, and
management's determination that such property is expected to provide long-term
earnings and cash flow growth.  During the current year, any developments,
redevelopments, expansions or acquisitions are expected to be funded with bank
borrowings from the Company's credit line or other external capital resources
available to the Company.

    The Company expects to fulfill its long range requirements for capital
resources in a variety of ways, including undistributed cash flow from
operations, secured or unsecured bank and institutional borrowings, private or
public offerings of debt or equity securities and proceeds from the sales of
properties.  Borrowings may be at the Saul Centers, Operating Partnership or
Subsidiary Partnership level, and securities offerings may include (subject to
certain limitations) the issuance of additional limited partnership interests in
the Operating Partnership which can be converted into shares of Saul Centers
common stock.

    Management believes that the Company's current capital resources, which
includes the Company's credit line of which $45,000,000 was available for
borrowing as of June 30, 1998, will be sufficient to meet its liquidity needs
for the foreseeable future.

Financial Information
- ---------------------

    For the second quarter of 1998, the Company reported Funds From Operations
(FFO) of $7,249,000.  This represents an 11.7% increase over the comparable 1997
period's FFO of $6,492,000. FFO is presented on a fully converted basis and as
the most widely accepted measure of operating performance for REITs is defined
as net income before extraordinary and nonrecurring items and before real estate
depreciation and amortization.  The following table represents a reconciliation
from net income before minority interests to FFO:

(1)  Retroactive to January 1, 1998, the Company began recognition of percentage
     rental income in accordance with  a new accounting pronouncement.  The
     1997  second quarter and six month period FFO amounts previously reported
     have been reduced $352,000 or $.02 per share and $119,000 or $.01 per
     share, respectively, to provide comparability.

  FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles and is not necessarily indicative
of cash available to fund cash needs, which is disclosed in the Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows for the applicable periods.  There are no material
legal or functional restrictions on the use of FFO.  FFO should not be
considered as an alternative to net income, as an indicator of the Company's
operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of
liquidity.  Management considers FFO a supplemental measure of operating
performance and along with cash flow from operating activities, financing
activities and investing activities, it provides investors with an indication of
the ability of the Company to incur and service debt, to make capital
expenditures and to fund other cash needs.  FFO may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures employed by other REITs.  FFO, as defined by the
National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, is calculated as net
income excluding gains or losses from debt restructuring and sales of property,
plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated
partnerships and joint ventures.

Capital Strategy and Financing Activity
- ---------------------------------------

  The Company's capital strategy is to maintain a ratio of total debt to total
asset value of  50% or less, and to actively manage the Company's leverage and
debt expense on an ongoing basis in order to maintain prudent coverage of fixed
charges.  Management believes that current total debt remains less than 50% of
total asset value.

  During 1997, the Company closed two long-term fixed rate mortgages, which
management believes enhance the balance sheet. The Company's total notes payable
as of June 30, 1998 was $287.2 million and have a weighted average maturity of
13.0 years and a weighted average interest rate of 7.88%.  Approximately $268.6
million or 93.5% of total notes payable is fixed rate debt.  As of June 30,
1998, outstanding borrowings under the Company's $60 million unsecured line of
credit totaled $15.0 million, leaving $45.0 million of uncommitted credit
availability.  This availability provides the Company with capital to pursue new
redevelopment, renovation, and expansion opportunities within its portfolio.


Redevelopment, Renovations and Acquisitions
- -------------------------------------------

  The Company has been selectively involved in redevelopment, renovation and
acquisition activities.  It continues to evaluate land parcels for development
and potential acquisitions of operating properties for opportunities to enhance
operating income and cash flow growth. The Company also continues to take
advantage of redevelopment, renovation and expansion opportunities within the
portfolio, as demonstrated by its redevelopment activities at French Market,
Beacon Center and Shops at Fairfax.

  In February 1998, the Company commenced construction on a facade renovation
and retenanting of a 103,000 square foot anchor space at the 213,000 square foot
French Market center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  The Company successfully
negotiated the termination of a below market lease in the fourth quarter of
1997.  Construction of the first two new tenant spaces, a 40,000 square foot
Bed, Bath and Beyond and an 8,000 square foot Lakeshore Learning, a children's
educational toy store, was completed in May 1998, with these stores now open for
business.  Another 8,300 square feet has been leased and is under construction,
with the remaining 46,000 square feet under active leasing negotiations.  The
redevelopment included a complete facade renovation of the 103,000 square foot
building which incorporates new anchor tenant architectural features, new
storefronts, tenant signage and decorative awnings.

  The Company has signed a lease with Lowe's Companies for a new 148,000 square
foot home improvement superstore and garden center at the Beacon Center in
Alexandria, Virginia.  The lease has an initial term of twenty years.  The area
leased by Lowe's consists of approximately 100,000 square feet of existing space
and 48,000 square feet of new building area.  The enclosed mall area will be
demolished, and the Lowe's store will be a newly constructed 

                                       18
<PAGE>
 
building, scheduled for opening in mid-1999. The center's other anchor tenants
include Giant, Marshalls and Office Depot, with a complement of small shop space
and restaurants. With Lowe's, the 350,000 square feet Beacon Center is now over
99% leased. In addition to the new home improvement store, 8,000 square feet of
new small shop space will be constructed adjacent to Lowe's and Giant.
Demolition of the enclosed mall and construction of the shop space has begun,
with scheduled completion in the fall of 1998.

  The Company commenced another significant redevelopment when it signed a lease
with SuperFresh for a new 53,000 square foot grocery store at the Shops at
Fairfax, located in Fairfax, Virginia.  A portion of the shopping center which
includes a small enclosed mall will be demolished.  The SuperFresh store will be
a new building, with construction projected to be completed in the fall of 1999.
An additional 7,500 square feet of shop space will be constructed adjacent to
the supermarket.  This redevelopment will provide more efficient parking and new
landscaping and will reposition the property, in management's opinion, as a
desirable neighborhood grocery anchored shopping center for the future.  Subject
to final governmental approvals, construction is projected to commence in the
fall of 1998.

  On April 1, 1998, the Company  purchased, through its operating partnership, a
newly constructed, 100% leased office/flex building adjacent to its Avenel
Business Park in Gaithersburg, Maryland.  The building contains 46,227 square
feet of net leasable area, which has increased the Company's Avenel Business
Park by 16%, to 332,000 square feet.  An independent appraisal determined the
purchase price of $5,600,000.  Payment consisted of $3,657,000 in debt
assumption, with the balance paid through the issuance of 105,922 new units in
Saul Centers' operating partnership.  The seller is a member of The Saul
Organization and is an existing limited partner in the operating partnership.

  In July 1998, the Company began construction of approximately 27,000 square
feet of additional office / flex space at Avenel Business Park on excess land
that it owns.  Completion of this phase of the project is scheduled for December
1998.  The Company has entered into a $2.7 million commitment for permanent
financing for this development at an interest rate of 7.09% and a loan term of
13 years.  This financing is scheduled to be completed in September 1998.
Excluding this new development, Avenel Business Park is currently over 97%
leased.


Portfolio Leasing Status
- ------------------------

  At June 30, 1998, the portfolio consisted of thirty Shopping Centers and four
Office Properties located in seven states and the District of Columbia.  At June
30, 1998, the core shopping center portfolio, excluding the Crosstown conversion
property, was 91.5% leased compared to 92.3% leased at June 30, 1997.  The
Office Properties were 96.7% leased at June 30, 1998 compared to 92.1% leased as
of  June 30, 1997.  In total, the Company's 5.9 million square feet of leasable
space was 89.3% leased to tenants at June 30, 1998, as compared to 90.1% at June
30, 1997.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  The following discussion compares the results of the Company for the three
month and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  This
information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated
financial statements and the notes related thereto.  These financial statements
include all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments)
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of
the interim periods presented.

 
Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1997
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Revenues for the three month period ended June 30, 1998 (the "1998 Quarter"),
totaled $17,505,000 compared to $16,624,000 for the comparable quarter in 1997
(the "1997 Quarter"), representing an increase of $881,000 (5.3%).  Had the
Company retroactively  applied the change in accounting method required by EITF
98-9, total revenues for the 1997 Quarter would have been $16,272,000.  The 1998
Quarter's increase would have been $1,233,000 (7.6%).

  Base rent was $13,990,000 for the 1998 Quarter, compared to $12,857,000 for
the 1997 Quarter, representing an increase of $1,133,000 (8.8%).  The increase
in base rent resulted primarily from new leases placed in service at Seven
Corners and Ravenwood for the 1998 Quarter that were not present during the 1997
Quarter.

  Expense recoveries were $2,394,000 for the 1998 Quarter compared to $2,246,000
for the comparable 1997 Quarter, representing an increase of $148,000 (6.6%).

  Percentage rent was $423,000 in the 1998 Quarter, compared to $678,000 in the
1997 Quarter, representing a decrease of $255,000 (37.6%). Had the Company
retroactively  applied the change in accounting method required by EITF 98-9,
percentage rent for the 1997 Quarter would have been $326,000.  The 1998
Quarter's increase would have been $97,000 (29.8%).

  Other income, which primarily consists of parking income, kiosk and temporary
leasing, and fees associated with early termination of leases, was $698,000 in
the 1998 Quarter, compared to $843,000 in the 1997 Quarter, representing a
decrease of $145,000 (17.2%).  The decrease in other income resulted primarily
from lease termination payments collected at Seven Corners and  Beacon Center
during the 1997 Quarter.

  Operating expenses, consisting primarily of repairs and maintenance,
utilities, payroll, insurance and other property related expenses decreased
$95,000 (4.7%) to $1,915,000 in the 1998 Quarter from $2,010,000 in the 1997
Quarter.  The expense decrease resulted primarily from higher legal expenses
associated with collections of several tenant receivables during the 1997
quarter.

  The provision for credit losses decreased $19,000 (14.5%) to $112,000 in the
1998 Quarter from $131,000 in the 1997 Quarter.

                                       20
<PAGE>
 
  Real estate taxes increased $108,000 (7.4%) to $1,564,000 in the 1998 Quarter
from $1,456,000 in the 1997 Quarter.  The expense increase resulted from
property tax assessment increases at two of the Company's redevelopment
properties.

  Interest expense of $5,672,000 for the 1998 Quarter represented an increase of
$838,000 (17.3 %) over $4,834,000 reported for the 1997 Quarter.  This increase
is primarily attributable to higher interest rates resulting from the Company's
October 1, 1997 refinancing and conversion of approximately $147.0 million of
its mortgage debt from interest rate capped floating rate loans to longer term,
fixed rate loans.  New debt associated with the acquisition of  Avenel IV on
April 1, 1998 also added approximately $70,000 to interest expense in the 1998
Quarter.

     Amortization of deferred debt expense decreased $433,000 (80.0%) to
$108,000 in the 1998 Quarter from $541,000 in the 1997 Quarter.  The decrease in
the 1998 Quarter's expense resulted from the elimination of amortization on
interest rate protection agreements with notional values of $162.8 million sold
during the fourth quarter of 1997, and reduced loan cost amortization because
new debt costs related to the October 1, 1997 refinancings are being amortized
over a longer term than the debt costs they replaced.

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased $290,000 (11.0%) from
$2,633,000 in the 1997 Quarter to $2,923,000 in the 1998 Quarter, primarily as a
result of depreciation attributable to recently completed redevelopments and
renovations.

     General and administrative expense, which consists of payroll,
administrative and other overhead expense, was $885,000 for the 1998 Quarter, an
increase of $77,000 (9.5%) over the 1997 Quarter.


Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1997
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Revenues for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 (the "1998 Period"),
totaled $34,833,000 compared to $33,186,000 for the comparable period in 1997
(the "1997 Period"), representing an increase of $1,647,000 (5.0%).  Had the
Company retroactively  applied the change in accounting method required by EITF
98-9, total revenues for the 1997 Period would have been $33,067,000.  The 1998
Quarter's increase would have been $1,766,000 (5.3%).

  Base rent was $27,461,000 for the 1998 Period, compared to $25,458,000 for the
1997 Period, representing an increase of $2,003,000 (7.9%). The increase in base
rent resulted primarily from new leases placed in service at Seven Corners and
Ravenwood for the 1998 Period that were not present during the 1997 Period.

  Expense recoveries were $4,714,000 for the 1998 Period compared to $4,558,000
for the comparable 1997 Period, representing an increase of $156,000 (3.4%).

                                       21
<PAGE>
 
  Percentage rent was $1,407,000 in the 1998 Period, compared to $1,437,000 in
the 1997 Period, representing a decrease of $30,000 (2.1%). Had the Company
retroactively  applied the change in accounting method required by EITF 98-9,
percentage rent for the 1997 Period would have been $1,318,000.  The 1998
Period's increase would have been $89,000 (6.8%).

  Other income, which primarily consists of parking income, kiosk and temporary
leasing, and fees associated with early termination of leases, was $1,251,000 in
the 1998 Period, compared to $1,733,000 in the 1997 Period, representing a
decrease of $482,000 (27.8%).  The decrease in other income resulted primarily
from lease termination payments collected at Seven Corners and  Beacon Center
during the 1997 Period.

  Operating expenses, consisting primarily of repairs and maintenance,
utilities, payroll, insurance and other property related expenses decreased
$150,000 (3.7%) to $3,886,000 in the 1998 Period from $4,036,000 in the 1997
Period.  The expense decrease resulted primarily from higher legal expenses
associated with collections of several tenant receivables during the 1997
Period.

  The provision for credit losses decreased $22,000 (12.6%) to $152,000 in the
1998 Period from $174,000 in the 1997 Period.

  Real estate taxes increased $16,000 (0.5%) to $2,986,000 in the 1998 Period
from $2,970,000 in the 1997 Period.  The expense decrease resulted from tax
credits received upon the successful appeal of prior year property tax
assessments primarily at two of the Company's redevelopment properties.

  Interest expense of $11,276,000 for the 1998 Period represented an increase of
$1,622,000 (16.8 %) over $9,654,000 reported for the 1997 Period.  This increase
is primarily attributable to higher interest rates resulting from the Company's
October 1, 1997 refinancing and conversion of approximately $147.0 million of
its mortgage debt from interest rate capped floating rate loans to longer term,
fixed rate loans. New debt associated with the acquisition of  Avenel IV on
April 1, 1998 also added approximately $70,000 to interest expense in the 1998
Period.

     Amortization of deferred debt expense decreased $877,000 (80.8%) to
$209,000 in the 1998 Period from $1,086,000 in the 1997 Period.  The decrease in
the 1998 Period's expense resulted from the elimination of amortization on
interest rate protection agreements with notional values of $162.8 million sold
during the fourth quarter of 1997, and reduced loan cost amortization because
new debt costs related to the October 1, 1997 refinancings are being amortized
over a longer term than the debt costs they replaced.

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased $443,000 (8.5%) from
$5,205,000 in the 1997 Period to $5,648,000 in the 1998 Period, primarily as a
result of depreciation attributable to recently completed redevelopments and
renovations.

     General and administrative expense, which consists of payroll,
administrative and other overhead expense, was $1,687,000 for the 1998 Period,
an increase of $86,000 (5.4%) over the 1997 Period.

  Extraordinary item, loss on early extinguishment of debt, was $369,000 for the
1997 Period, resulting from the write-off of unamortized loan costs when the
Company refinanced a portion of its loan portfolio in January 1997.  No such
item occurred during the 1998 Period.

  Cumulative effect from change in accounting method was $771,000 for the 1998
Period, resulting from the implementation of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue
98-9 "Accounting for Contingent Rent" retroactive to January 1, 1998. No such
item occurred during the 1997 Period.
