1.        BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of Glimcher Realty Trust (the "Company" or "GRT"), Glimcher Properties Limited

Holdings Limited Partnership, Glimcher Centers Limited Partnership, Grand
Central Limited Partnership, and Glimcher York Associates Limited Partnership)
and one Ohio limited partnership (Morgantown Mall Associates Limited
Partnership), all of which are wholly-owned, directly or indirectly by GRT. The
Operating Partnership has an investment in three corporate ventures and one
other corporation which are accounted for under the equity method. All
significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

         The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 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. The information furnished in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets, statements of operations, and statements of cash flows reflect all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the aforementioned financial statements for the interim periods.
Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1997.

         The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the notes to the consolidated financial statements, Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in
Glimcher Realty Trust's Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 1996.

Supplemental disclosure of non-cash financing and investing activities:

         The Company accrued accounts payable of $356 and $2,623 for real estate
improvements as of September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, respectively.

         The Company, through the Operating Partnership, acquired one community
shopping center during the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The purchase
price of $12,553 included $5,167 in cash and the assumption of net liabilities
and mortgage debt of $7,386.

2.       INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES

         Investments in unconsolidated entities consist of preferred stock and
non-voting common stock of Glimcher Development Corporation ("GDC"), a 45.0%
interest in Great Plains Metro Mall L.L.C., a 33.3% interest in Johnson City
Venture L.L.C. and a 40.0% interest in Dayton Mall L.L.C.

         The Company owns preferred and common stock in GDC entitling it to
approximately 95.0% of the net profits or losses of GDC and has the ability to
exercise significant influence but not voting control with respect to GDC. The
Company is accounting for its investment in GDC using the equity method of
accounting.

         The net income (loss) for each unconsolidated entity is allocated in
accordance with the provisions of the applicable operating agreements. The
allocation provisions in these agreements may differ from the ownership interest
held by each member under the terms of these agreements.

         On May 15, 1997, the Company, through the Operating Partnership,
amended its existing line of credit (the "Credit Facility"). The amended Credit
Facility provides for an increase in the amount the Company can borrow from
$175,000 to $190,000, extends the term from June 30, 1998 to July 31, 1998, and
provides an option to extend the term to July 31, 1999. The amended Credit
Facility also provides for a reduction in the tiered interest rate schedule with
borrowings bearing interest at a variable rate of not more than LIBOR plus 170
basis points. At September 30, 1997, the Company's interest rate under the
amended agreement was LIBOR plus 170 basis points (7.356%).

5.       RECLASSIFICATIONS

         Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made in the
financial statements to conform to the 1997 presentation.

6.       RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD

         In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("FAS
128"). FAS 128 revised the method of computing and the form for presentation of
earnings per share and is effective for financial statements issued for periods
ending after December 15, 1997. Early adoption is not permitted and the
statement requires restatement of all prior-period EPS date presented after the
effective date.

         The Company will adopt FAS 128 effective with its 1997 year end. The
impact of FAS 128 on GRT Earnings Per Share is not expected to be material.

7.        SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY

         The Company's Declaration of Trust authorizes the Company to issue up
to an aggregate of 100,000,000 shares of beneficial interest, consisting of
common shares or one or more series of preferred shares of beneficial interest.

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

OVERVIEW

           The following should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
consolidated financial statements of Glimcher Realty Trust (the "Company" or
"GRT") including the respective notes thereto, all of which are included in this
Form 10-Q.

           This Form 10-Q, together with other statements and information
publicly disseminated by GRT, contains certain statements which may be deemed to
be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements are based on assumptions and
expectations which may not be realized and are inherently subject to risks and
uncertainties, many of which cannot be predicted with accuracy and some of which
might not even be anticipated. Such statements are not guaranties of future
performance, future events and actual results, financial and otherwise, may
differ from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Risks and
other factors that might cause differences, some of which could be material,
include, but are not limited to: the effect of economic and market conditions;
failure to consummate financing and venture arrangements, including the failure
of Nomura Asset Capital Corporation ("Nomura") (as discussed below under
Liquidity and Capital Resources) to acquire preferred shares or provide
permanent financing; development risks, including lack of satisfactory
financing, construction and lease-up delays and cost overruns; the level and
volatility of interest rates; the financial stability of tenants within the
retail industry; the rate of revenue increases versus expense increases; the
ability of Glimcher Development Corporation ("GDC"), GRT's non-qualified real
estate investment trust subsidiary, to generate fees from future developments,
as well as other risks listed from time to time in this Form 10-Q and in GRT's
other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Other revenues

         The $310,000 increase in other revenues is primarily the result of
increases in management fee revenues from unconsolidated joint ventures. During
the third quarter of 1997, joint ventures in which the Company has an interest,
acquired The Dayton Mall and opened The Great Mall of the Great Plains.

OPERATING EXPENSES

         Total operating expenses increased 17.6%, or $1.1 million, for the
three months ended September 30, 1997. Recoverable expenses increased $900,000,
the provision for credit losses increased $160,000 and other operating expenses
increased $50,000, primarily as a result of the acquisition and development
activities described above.

Recoverable expenses

         Recoverable operating expenses increased 15.9% or $900,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1997. The summary below identifies the 15.9%

</TABLE>


         The increase in the same center expenses at the Malls reflect a
$130,000 decrease in real estate taxes and a $350,000 increase in other
operating expenses. Same center Community Center expenses reflect a decrease in
real estate taxes of $70,000 and a decrease of $140,000 in other operating
expenses. The increase in recoverable operating expenses from acquisitions and
developments was primarily the result of the Retail Property Investors, Inc.
properties ("RPI Properties") acquisition.

Provision for credit losses

         The provision for credit losses was $620,000 and represented 1.8% of
total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1997, compared to 1.6%
of total revenues for the third quarter of 1996.

Depreciation and amortization

         The $1.5 million increase in depreciation and amortization consists of
an increase of $1.1 million from acquisitions (principally the RPI Properties),
$130,000 from the opening of two new Community Centers since the end of 1996 and
an increase of $270,000 in the core portfolio properties.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

         In the second quarter of 1996, the Company began to increase its staff
levels to support the RPI Properties acquisition and expand development and
construction activities. In addition, the Company formed GDC on October 16,
1996, and transferred 51 employees in the construction, development, leasing and
legal departments to GDC. The GDC staff provide services to the Company, to
ventures in which the Company has an ownership interest and to third parties for
a fee. GDC, an unconsolidated non-qualified REIT subsidiary, is subject to
federal income taxes. The Company also receives management fees for the services
provided by its operations staff to ventures.

         As a result, portions of general and administrative expense are now
reflected both in the GDC statement operations of the Company and GDC:

quarter of 1997, joint ventures in which the Company has an interest, acquired
The Dayton Mall and opened The Great Mall of the Great Plains.

</TABLE>

         The decline in the same center expenses at the Malls reflect a $1.1
million reduction in real estate taxes, a $520,000 increase in other operating
expenses, and a $160,000 decrease in snow removal costs compared to the same
period in the prior year. Same center Community Center expenses reflect an
increase in real estate taxes of $190,000 offset by decreases of $240,000 in
snow removal costs and $110,000 in other operating expenses. The increase in
recoverable operating expenses from acquisitions and developments was primarily
the result of the RPI Properties acquisition.


Provision for credit losses

         The provision for credit losses was $1.9 million and represented 1.8%
of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to 1.8%
of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.

Depreciation and amortization

         The $4.5 million increase in depreciation and amortization was
primarily the result of an increase of $3.5 million from acquisitions
(principally the RPI Properties), $300,000 from the opening of two new Community
Centers since the end of 1996 and an increase of $740,000 in the core portfolio
properties.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

         In the second quarter of 1996, the Company began to increase its staff
levels to support the RPI Properties acquisition and expand development and
construction activities. In addition, the Company formed GDC on October 16,
1996, and transferred 51 employees in the construction, development, leasing and
legal departments to GDC. The GDC staff provide services to the Company, to
ventures in which the Company has an ownership interest and to third parties for
a fee. GDC, an unconsolidated non-qualified REIT subsidiary, is subject to
federal income taxes. GDC also receives management fees for the services
provided by its operations staff to ventures.

         As a result, portions of general and administrative expense are now
reflected both in the GDC statement of the Company and GDC:

</TABLE>

         The primary reason for the increase in outstanding debt from September
30, 1996 to September 30, 1997 was the RPI Properties acquisition which was
financed through loan assumptions and increased borrowings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

         The Company has several active development, renovation and expansion
projects and will continue to be active in these areas. Future development
projects being considered include those relating to the commitment between the
Company and Nomura, pursuant to which Nomura has agreed, subject to satisfaction
of certain conditions, to provide equity to the Company and permanent debt
financing for certain of the Company's developments. Management anticipates that
the funds available under its Credit Facility and the Company's plan to utilize
construction financing, long-term mortgage debt and the venture structure to
raise equity and financing for acquisitions and developments and the issuance of
preferred and common stock will provide sufficient capital resources to carry
out the Company's business strategy relative to the acquisitions, renovations,
expansions and developments discussed herein.

         At September 30, 1997 the Company's debt to total market capitalization
was 51.1% which is consistent with the current policy of the Company to maintain
this ratio between 40.0% and 60.0%. On October 6, 1997, the Company completed a
public offering of an additional 1,750,000 shares of beneficial interest to the
public, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $37.9 million. The Company
used the net proceeds to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings on the
Company's revolving line of credit. The Company's total debt to total market
capitalization as of September 30, 1997, would be reduced to 47.9%, on a pro
forma basis, as a result of this offering.

         Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 was $40.9 million versus $32.5 million for the corresponding
period of 1996. Net income adjusted for non-cash items accounted for a $7.8
million increase, while changes in operating assets and liabilities accounted
for a $620,000 increase.

         Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 was $56.1 million, and reflects additional direct investments
in real estate assets and additional indirect investments in real estate through
investments in unconsolidated entities.

         Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 was $13.6 million. Cash was provided by additional borrowings
of $53.2 million primarily used to fund the increase in real estate investments.
Cash was used to fund distributions of $37.8 million and principal payments or
mortgages and notes payable of $2.2 million.

RENOVATION, EXPANSION, DEVELOPMENT AND ACQUISITION ACTIVITY

         The Company continues to be very active in its renovation, expansion,
development and acquisition activities. Its business strategy is to set in place
activities that will allow the Company's assets and cash flow to grow.

Renovation and Expansion Activity
- ---------------------------------

Grand Central Mall

         The renovation and expansion of this Mall located in Parkersburg, West
Virginia, continues and will increase this property's gross leasable area
("GLA") to 882,000 square feet upon its completion. The addition of a food court
and the expansion of the existing cinema to a 37,000 square foot 12-screen
cinema were completed and opened in 1996. Additional expansion of the Mall will
include an 83,000 square foot Proffitt's which is projected to open in March
1998. The estimated cost of the Proffitt's expansion is $5.4 million of which
$4.6 million had been expended at September 30, 1997.

Indian Mound Mall

          The expansion of this Mall located in Newark/Heath, Ohio, will add
approximately 122,000 square feet and increase this property's GLA to 543,000
square feet. The expansion includes the addition of a 93,000 square foot Sears,
which opened in late September 1997 expanding the current cinema from 18,000
square feet to 42,000 square feet and the addition of 5,000 square feet of small
shops. The opening of the remainder of the new retail space is projected for the

foot Lowe's and a 63,000 square foot Kroger, with the balance of the GLA in
small shops. Lowe's opened in October 1996, and Kroger and the small shops
opened in the second quarter of 1997. The cost of the development was $18.4
million of which $16.1 million has been advanced from a construction loan as of
September 30, 1997. An additional $800,000 is available from the construction
loan which bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points (7.633% at September
30, 1997) and matures October 1, 1999, subject to two extensions of six months
each. Additionally, the Company announced the construction of a 70,000 square
foot 16-screen cinema on one of the center's outparcel lots which is scheduled
to open in the fourth quarter of 1997. The Company has also expended an
additional $2.5 million relating to land costs for future phases of this
development.

Meadowview Square

         This development is a Community Center containing 151,000 square feet
of GLA located in Kent/Ravenna, Ohio. The center is anchored by a 126,000 square
foot Wal-Mart with the balance of the space in small shops. Wal-Mart opened in
January 1997 and the small shops opened in the second quarter of 1997. The cost
of the development was $11.1 million of which $9.0 million had been advanced
from a construction loan as of September 30, 1997. An additional $800,000 is
available from the construction loan which bears interest at LIBOR plus 200
basis points (7.633% at September 30, 1997) and matures October 1, 1999, subject
to two extensions of six months each. The Company has also expended an
additional $1.7 million relating to land costs for future phases of this
development.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

         Management considers funds from operations ("FFO") to be a supplemental
measure of the Company's operating performance. FFO does not represent cash
generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not
necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be
considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of the
Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure
of liquidity. The following table illustrates the calculation of FFO for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 (in thousands):

</TABLE>


         FFO increased 10.8%, or $1.3 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1997. The increase was the result of improved property net
operating income of $5.7 million, a decrease in general and administrative
expense of $400,000 and an increase in the FFO from unconsolidated entities of
$1.1 million, partially offset by increased interest expense of $4.7 million, a
decrease in gain on sale of outparcels of $380,000 and an increase in preferred
stock dividends of $730,000.

         FFO increased 10.4%, or $3.8 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. The increase was the result of improved property net
operating income of $19.3 and an increase in the FFO from unconsolidated
entities of $260,000, partially offset by increased interest expense of $12.4
million, a decrease in gain on sale of outparcels of $1.3 million and an
increase in preferred stock dividends of $2.2 million.

OTHER

         The shopping center industry is seasonal in nature, particularly in the
fourth quarter during the holiday season, when tenant occupancy and retail sales
are typically at their highest levels. In addition, shopping malls achieve most
of their temporary tenant rents during the holiday season. As a result of the
above, earnings are generally highest in the fourth quarter of each year.

         The retail industry has experienced some difficulty, which is reflected
in sales trends and in the bankruptcies and continued restructuring of several
prominent retail organizations. Continuation of these trends could impact future
earnings performance.
