The A-1 and D Preferred Shares include certain conversion features that could
potentially dilute basic EPS in the future, but were not included in the
computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been antidilutive (based
on period end share prices) for the periods presented. Additionally, options
with exercise prices greater than the average share prices for the periods
presented were excluded from the respective computations of diluted EPS because
to do so would have been antidilutive.

8.       CONTINGENCIES

         The Company has provided guarantees in connection with the outstanding
debt of certain joint ventures in which the Company is an equity member.

         In connection with the development of Polaris Fashion Place, the
Operating Partnership provided the lender with a completion guarantee and an
unconditional guarantee of payment of 50.0% of the outstanding obligation on
the indebtedness on the Property.






                                       11
<PAGE>   12



         In connection with the development of Jersey Gardens, the Operating
Partnership provided the senior lending group with a completion guarantee and
payment of interest on the senior portion of the construction facility to a
maximum of $30,000 until the Property achieves a coverage ratio of 1.25.

         As of September 30, 2000, no reserves for losses have been provided in
connection with these guarantees, as the Company does not expect to incur any
liability.

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 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. 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; tenant bankruptcies;
failure to consummate financing and joint venture arrangements; development
risks, including lack of satisfactory equity and debt financing, construction
and lease-up delays and cost overruns; the level and volatility of interest
rates; the consummation of asset sales at acceptable prices; the financial
stability of tenants within the retail industry, the rate of revenue increases
versus expense increases, 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.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1999

REVENUES

         Total revenues increased 9.2%, or $5.0 million, for the three months
ended September 30, 2000. Of the $5.0 million increase, $5.9 million was the
result of increased revenues at the malls, $1.6 million was the result of
decreased revenues at the community centers (including a $1.1 million decrease
from dispositions) and $760,000 was related to other revenue increases. Mall
acquisitions for the three month period ended September 30, 2000, reflects the
inclusion of The Great Mall of the Great Plains in the consolidated financial
statements effective October 1, 1999, as a result of an increase in the
Company's ownership to 55.0% at that date.

Minimum rents

         Minimum rents increased 6.3%, or $2.4 million, for the three months
ended September 30, 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

         The Company's short term (less than one year) liquidity requirements
include recurring operating costs, capital expenditures, debt service
requirements and preferred and common dividend requirements. The Company
anticipates that these needs will be met with cash flows provided by
operations, the refinancing of maturing debt and proceeds from the sale of
assets.

         The Company has a $170.0 million revolving line of credit with a group
of banks that matures January 31, 2001. The Company has initiated discussions
with the lead banks and anticipates that a new agreement, on comparable terms,
will be executed prior to December 31, 2000.

         In February 2000, the Company refinanced a $16.2 million construction
loan payable with a new $16.2 million loan secured by a first mortgage lien on
Georgesville Square, which matures in March 2010 and bears interest at 8.52%
per annum. In July 2000, the Company refinanced a $45.0 million maturing
construction loan on The Great Mall of the Great Plains with a new $42.0
million loan. This loan matures in July 2002 and can be extended for one year.
It requires payments of interest only and carries a floating rate of LIBOR plus
3.55% per annum. During the first nine months of 2000, the Company refinanced
certain maturing debt with short term floating rate debt of $123.9 million at a
rate of LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum secured by 50 community center and single
tenant assets. In total, the Company repaid $239.5 million in mortgage notes
during the first nine months of 2000 and executed new notes payable of $199.7
million; net additional borrowings on the Company's Credit Facility were $35.0
million.

         The Company is pursuing a strategy of selling single tenant and
non-strategic community center assets and focusing on the regional mall
portfolio. The timing and selling prices of future asset sales is dependent
upon the Company being able to consummate sales transactions under acceptable
terms and at satisfactory pricing as the intent is to redeploy capital as the
value of existing assets can be realized through sale transactions. Net
proceeds from asset sales are being used to reduce debt. The Company believes
that these short term borrowings provide maximum flexibility in structuring
such sales.

         During the third quarter, the Company completed the sale of three
community centers, seven single tenant assets and one outparcel for total
proceeds of $31.4 million and recognized a net gain of $540,000. For the first
nine months, the Company has sold four community centers, eight single tenant
assets and six outparcels for total proceeds of $36.3 million and recognized a
net gain of $2.5 million.

         The Company's long term (greater than one year) liquidity requirements
include scheduled debt maturities, capital expenditures to maintain, renovate
and expand existing assets, property acquisitions and development projects.
Management anticipates that net cash provided by operating activities, the
funds available under its Credit Facility, its construction financing,
long-term mortgage debt, the venture structure for acquisitions and
developments, issuance of preferred and common shares of beneficial interest
and proceeds from the sale of assets will provide sufficient capital resources
to carry out the Company's business strategy relative to the acquisitions,
renovations, expansions and developments. Based upon its current debt-to-market
capitalization, the Company does not expect to pursue significant additional
acquisitions until such time as the Company has reduced the amount of
outstanding borrowings or has access to additional equity capital.

         At September 30, 2000, the Company's debt-to-total-market
capitalization was 62.3%, compared to 64.7% at December 31, 1999. The Company's
intent is to maintain this ratio between approximately 40.0% and 60.0% and the
Company is working toward reducing this ratio below 60.0% in 2000. As noted
earlier, the Company is pursuing the sale of certain assets as a means of
reducing its leverage, and during the third quarter reduced total outstanding
debt by approximately $21.6 million.

          Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, was $57.8 million versus $72.7 million for the
corresponding period of 1999. Net income adjusted for non-cash items accounted
for a $4.2 million decrease, while changes in operating assets and liabilities
accounted for a $10.7 million decrease.

         Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, was $5.0 million. It primarily reflects proceeds from the
sale of assets of $32.8 million, additional direct investments in real estate
assets of $18.3 million, proceeds from unconsolidated entities of $4.0 million,
an increase in deferred expenses, prepaid and other assets of $15.9 million and
withdrawals from cash in escrow of $2.5 million.

         Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, was $64.3 million. Cash was used to fund distributions of
$59.9 million and make principal payments on mortgage and notes payable of
$239.5 million. Cash was provided by additional borrowings on the Credit
Facility of $35.0 million, issuance of new mortgage and notes payable of $199.7
million and proceeds from issuance of shares of $400,000.

EXPANSION, RENOVATION AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY

         The Company continues to be active in its expansion, renovation and
development activities. Its business strategy is to grow the Company's assets
and cash flow available, to among other things, provide for dividend
requirements.

Expansions and Renovations
--------------------------

         The Company maintains a strategy of selective expansions and
renovations in order to improve the operating performance and the competitive
position of its existing portfolio. The Company also engages in an active
redevelopment program with the objective of attracting innovative retailers
which management believes will enhance the operating performance of the
properties.

Malls

         At The Great Mall of the Great Plains, in Olathe, Kansas, Saks Fifth
Avenue's value brand, Off 5th opened during the first quarter 2000 as an anchor
in 25,000 square feet of gross leasable area. Additionally, at Jersey Gardens,
in Elizabeth, New Jersey, Old Navy opened during the second quarter 2000 in a
45,000 square foot store.

Community Centers

         The Company currently has community center anchor expansion and
redevelopment projects in process at Cross-Creek Plaza in Beaufort, South
Carolina, Stewart Plaza in Mansfield, Ohio and Loyal Plaza in Loyalsock,
Pennsylvania. The total financial commitment in connection with these projects
is approximately $5.0 million.

Developments
------------

Polaris Towne Center

         In March 1998, the Company, in a joint venture in which it has a 50.0%
ownership interest, commenced construction of an approximately 700,000
square-foot power Community Center, Polaris Towne Center in northern Columbus,
Ohio. At September 30, 2000, approximately 690,000 square feet of retail space
was open. Upon completion, Polaris Towne Center will feature grocery and
discount store anchors, restaurants, big box retailers and several specialty
shops. The initial anchor, a 64,000 square-foot Kroger, opened in the fourth
quarter of 1998. During 1999 and the first nine months of 2000, seven
additional anchor tenants, 17 small shop tenants and eight outparcel tenants
opened for business. Included in the total square footage are Target and Lowes
which purchased land and constructed their own stores. Target opened a 136,000
square-foot store in the fourth quarter of 1999 and Lowes opened in a 135,000
square foot-store in the second quarter of 2000.

         The space for which construction has been completed was 100.0%
occupied at September 30, 2000. The required equity for Polaris Towne Center
was contributed to the joint venture during 1998. During the second quarter of
2000, the joint venture refinanced the construction loan with a permanent
10-year mortgage note payable at an interest rate of 8.20% per annum and
secured by a first mortgage lien on Polaris Towne Center.

Jersey Gardens

         The Company, in a joint venture in which the Company has a 30.0%
ownership interest, developed a 1.3 million square-foot value-oriented fashion
and entertainment megamall, ("Jersey Gardens"), located in Elizabeth, New
Jersey. Construction of the mall and related infrastructure has been completed
and the grand opening of Jersey Gardens was October 21, 1999. At the opening
date leases had been executed for approximately 92.8% of the GLA. Occupancy of
Jersey Gardens was 90.2% at September 30, 2000. The required equity for Jersey
Gardens and off-site improvements had previously been funded. The Company has
also arranged a construction loan facility for the project which matures in
2002 and is secured by a first mortgage lien on the project.





                                       17
<PAGE>   18

         The Company also has a 30.0% ownership interest in a separate joint
venture formed to subdivide and sell approximately 28.8 acres adjacent to the
Jersey Gardens site. The joint venture expects to incur additional costs of
$6.1 million related to remediation and infrastructure improvements for this
site. These costs will be funded from proceeds of sales of development parcels
out of the 28.8 acre site and to the extent necessary, advances from the joint
venture participants. In September 2000, the venture sold its interest in 6.0
acres of this site for $5.4 million. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated
entities includes $770,000 which is the Company's share of the gain or this
transaction.

Polaris Fashion Place

         In March 1998, the Company announced plans for the development of a
new super-regional mall of approximately 1.4 million square feet in northern
Columbus, Ohio. In September 2000, Polaris Mall LLC was formed and acquired
146.3 acres of land for the development of the mall and adjacent outparcels.
Construction and operating agreements with the mall's department store anchors
which include Kaufman's, Lord & Taylor, JCPenney, Lazarus, Saks Fifth Avenue
and Sears were also executed at that time. The Company has a 39.29% ownership
interest in this joint venture. The partnership which previously owned the land
retained a 21.42% ownership interest and a group of investors holds the
remaining 39.29% ownership interest. During the third quarter, the Company
issued 260,583 new Operating Partnership units with a value of $4.0 million in
connection with this transaction.

         The total estimated cost of the project is approximately $145.0
million. During October 2000, the joint venture obtained a $120.0 million
construction loan for this project from a group of banks secured by a first
mortgage lien on the project. The construction loan matures in October 2003 and
bears interest at an initial rate of LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum. This rate can
be reduced in stages to LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum as specified debt service
coverage ratios are achieved. The Company has provided a completion guarantee
and a guaranty of payment of 50.0% of the loan amount. Glimcher Development
Corporation will provide all leasing, legal, development and management services
for the project. The initial draw under the construction loan was funded in
October 2000.

Carson

         In April 1999, the Company terminated its contingent contract to
acquire the land for a value-oriented super-regional mall located in Carson,
California. The Company has executed a development agreement with the City of
Carson and is currently exploring alternatives with respect to the development
of this site.

Forest Fair Fashion Outlets

         As of September 30, 2000, the Company is no longer acting as the
leasing agent for Forest Fair Fashion Outlets in Cincinnati, Ohio.

PORTFOLIO DATA

         Tenants reporting sales data in the table below for the twelve month

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 generally
accepted accounting principles 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, 2000 and 1999 (in thousands):

         FFO increased 8.8%, or $1.5 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000. The increase was the result of the Company's continuous
focus on its core portfolio. Property net operating income increased $3.4
million and FFO from unconsolidated entities increased $4.3 million. These
increases were partially offset by an increase in net interest expense of $4.6
million, an increase in non-real estate depreciation and amortization of $1.0
million, an increase in general and administrative expense of $460,000 and an
increase in preferred stock dividends of $100,000.

         FFO increased 8.2% or $4.2 million for the nine months ended September
30, 2000. The increase was the result of the Company's continuous focus on its
core portfolio. Property net operating income increased $9.7 million and FFO
from unconsolidated entities increased $11.3 million. These increases were
partially offset by an increase in net interest expense of $14.0 million, an
increase in non-real estate depreciation and amortization of $1.9 million, an
increase in preferred stock dividends of $760,000 and an increase in general
and administrative expense of $120,000.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

         In July 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133 is effective for
financial statements for fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2000. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 133 effective January
1, 2001. SFAS No. 133 standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments by
requiring that all entities recognize them as assets and liabilities in the
balance sheet and subsequently measure them at fair market value. It also
prescribes specific accounting principles to be applied to hedging activities
and hedging transactions, which are significantly different from prior
accounting principles. The Company has began the process for adopting SFAS No.
133 but has not yet determined its impact.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

         Year 2000 issues had a minimal impact on the business, operations and
financial condition of the Company. All known issues have been remedied, and we
continue to exercise caution as we approach certain milestone dates. Even
though the Company has successfully completed the year-end financial reporting
with minimal impact, and first nine months with no impact, we continue to
exercise caution as we approach another year-end.

         In the third quarter, the Company launched several key technology
initiatives. On July 31, 2000, the Company announced its plans to implement the
Oracle E-Business Suite of financial applications as well as Oracle Property
Manager. As part of the implementation the Company will work with Oracle to
develop a comprehensive web-based property management solution for REIT's. In
August 2000, the Company announced an agreement for Energy System Management
services with Johnson Controls, Inc. This program will utilize innovative
metering technology to remotely monitor and profile energy usage providing a
clear picture of consumption patterns that can be utilized to lower demand-side
usage and reduce unit costs.

         During the third quarter of 2000, the Company also entered into a
five-year national agreement to bring the Genesisintermedia.com Centerlinq
public Internet access network to each of its malls. In addition to Internet
access, the Centerlinq kiosks provide coupons, directories and e-mail via a
touch screen computer terminal. The first kiosks are being installed at Jersey
Gardens and University Mall and all 23 malls are projected to be on-line by the
end of 2001. The Company is also finalizing a program to provide broadband
access at each mall and expects to announce the details of the program prior to
year-end with full implementation by mid-2001.

         The Company expects the total financial commitments in connection with
software, hardware and implementation assistance for the Oracle implementation
will not exceed $5.0 million and will be incurred throughout the years 2000 and
2001.

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, malls achieve most of
their temporary tenant rents and percentage 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.

INFLATION

         Inflation has remained relatively low during the past three years and
has had a minimal impact on the Company's properties. Many tenants' leases
contain provisions designed to lessen the impact of inflation. Such provisions
include clauses enabling the Company to receive percentage rentals based on
tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or
escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of
the leases. In addition, many of the leases are for terms of less than 10
years, which may enable the Company to replace existing leases with new leases
at higher base and/or percentage rentals if rents in the existing leases are
below the then-existing market rate. Substantially all of the leases, other
than those for anchors, require the tenants to pay a proportionate share of
common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby reducing the
Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from
inflation.

         Inflation may, however, have a negative impact on some of the
Company's other operating items. Interest expense and general and
administrative expenses may be adversely affected by inflation as these
specified costs could increase at a rate higher than rents. Also, for tenant
leases with stated rent increases, inflation may have a negative effect as the
stated rent increases in these leases could be lower than the increase in
inflation at any given time.

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The
Company uses interest rate protection agreements to manage interest rate risk
associated with long-term, floating rate debt. At September 30, 2000 and 1999,
approximately 51.5% and 64.7%, respectively, of the Company's debt, after
giving effect to interest rate protection agreements, bore interest at fixed
rates with a weighted-average maturity of 7.5 years and 7.0 years,
respectively, and weighted-average interest rates of approximately 7.538% and
7.416%, respectively. The remainder of the Company's debt bears interest at
variable rates with weighted-average interest rates of approximately 8.652% and
7.203%, respectively.

         At September 30, 2000 and 1999, the fair value of the Company's debt
was $856.7 million and $843.0 million, respectively, compared to its carrying
amounts of $867.7 million and $856.6 million, respectively. The Company's
combined future earnings, cash flows and fair values relating to financial
instruments are dependent upon prevalent market rates of interest, primarily
LIBOR. Based upon consolidated indebtedness and interest rates at September 30,
2000 and 1999, a 100 basis points increase in the market rates of interest
would decrease future earnings and cash flows, on a quarterly basis, by $1.2
million in 2000 and by $880,000 in 1999 and decrease the fair value of debt by
approximately $18.5 million and $16.3 million, at the respective balance sheet
dates. A 100 basis points decrease in the market rates of interest would
increase future earnings and cash flows, on a quarterly basis, by $1.2 million
in 2000 and by $880,000 in 1999 and increase the fair value of debt by
approximately $19.9 million and $17.6 million, at the respective balance sheet
dates.
