1. Business
General
-------
First Washington Realty Trust, Inc. (the "Company") is a fully
integrated real estate organization with expertise in acquisitions,
property management, leasing, renovation and development of principally
supermarket-anchored neighborhood shopping centers that has elected to
be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") . The Company owns a
portfolio of 57 retail properties containing a total of approximately
6.2 million square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA") located in the
Mid-Atlantic region and the Chicago, Illinois metropolitan area.
The Company currently owns approximately 75.0% of the
partnership interests in First Washington Realty Limited Partnership
(the "Operating Partnership"). All of the Company's operations are
conducted through the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership
owns 38 Properties directly and 19 Properties are owned by lower tier
entities in which the Operating Partnership owns a 99% partnership
interest and the Company (or a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company)
owns a 1% interest.
Due to the Company's ability, as the general partner, to
exercise both financial and operational control over the Operating
Partnership, the Operating Partnership is consolidated for financial
reporting purposes. Allocation of net income to the limited partners of
the Operating Partnership is based on their respective partnership
interests and is reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Financial
Statements as minority interests. Losses allocable to the limited
partners in excess of their basis are allocated to the Common
Stockholders as the limited partners have no requirement to fund
losses.
The Operating Partnership also owns 100% of the non-voting
preferred stock of First Washington Management, Inc. ("FWM" or
"Management Company") and is entitled to 99% of the cash flow from FWM.
FWM provides management, leasing and related services for the
Properties and to third-party clients, including individual,
institutional and corporate property owners.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the
Company are prepared pursuant to the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q and
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
notes thereto of the Company's 1998 Annual Report to Stockholders.
Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments,
consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for fair
presentation of the consolidated financial statements for the interim
periods have been included. The current period's results of operations
are not necessarily indicative of results which ultimately may be
achieved for the year.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its majority owned entities, including the Operating
Partnership. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated.

Derivatives
-----------
The Company may enter into various forward interest rate swap
arrangements from time to time in anticipation of a specific debt
transaction. These arrangements are used to manage the Company's
exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. The Company does not
utilize these arrangements for trading or speculative purposes. These
arrangements, considered qualifying hedges, are not recorded in the
financial statements until the debt transaction is consummated and the
arrangement is settled. The proceeds or payments resulting from the
settlement of the arrangement are deferred and amortized over the life
of the debt as an adjustment to interest expense. Premiums paid to
purchase interest rate protection agreements (such as caps) are
capitalized and amortized over the terms of those agreements using the
interest method. Unamortized premiums are included in deferred
financing costs in the consolidated balance sheet. Amounts received
under the interest rate protection agreements are recorded as a
reduction of interest expense.
3. Acquisitions of Rental Properties
During the first nine months of 1999, the Company acquired two
shopping centers for an aggregate acquisition cost of approximately
$27,349. The acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method
of accounting and the operations of the properties are included in the
Company's Statement of Operations from the dates of acquisition. The
following is a summary of the acquisition transactions:

4. Mortgage Debt
In February 1999 the Company signed an application with Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company ("Met Life") for six separate loans totaling $75.0
million. The loans were all closed by June 30, 1999 as follows:
Interest Term Closing
Collateral Properties Amount Rate (years) Date
- --------------------- ------ -------- ------- -------
Mallard Creek Shopping Center $10,900 6.85% 10 April 30, 1999

------
$75,000
There are six separate loans and six separate mortgages. The loans are
not cross-collateralized and allow for the assumption of each individual loan to
a qualified buyer upon sale of the property by the Company. The all-in weighted
average interest rate of the loans will be 7.31% including the amortization of
financing costs and the costs of closing out interest rate swap agreements as
discussed below. Monthly debt service payments will be based on a 25 year
amortization schedule. The proceeds of the loans were used to retire the Nomura
($38,500), Mallard Creek ($11,400) and McHenry Commons ($6,300) loans. Excess
proceeds of approximately $18,800 were used to pay down the Company's line of
credit.

(dollars in thousands, except share data)
With the application to Met Life the Company executed a rate lock
agreement thereby fixing the interest rate for the term of the loans.
Accordingly, in February 1999 the Company closed out the three swap agreements
which were to commence in 1999. These agreements, which had a combined notional
amount of $73.5 million, were closed out at combined cost for the Company of
$3,100. This cost will be amortized over the life of the Met Life loan using the
effective interest rate method.
5. Debentures
The $25,000, 8.25% Debentures matured on June 27, 1999. The holder of
the Debentures exercised the option to exchange the Debentures for one million
shares of Convertible Preferred Stock on June 27, 1999. The Debentures were
collateralized by the Fox Mill and Penn Station properties which became
unencumbered. Fox Mill was subsequently used as collateral for the Met Life
loan.
6. Preferred Stock
Effective June 1, 1999, shares of Convertible Preferred Stock became
convertible into 1.282051 shares of Common Stock. As of September 30, 1999,
625,980 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into 802,538 shares
of Common Stock. The Company may redeem the Convertible Preferred Stock
commencing July 15, 1999 at a redemption price of $27.44 per share. The
redemption price reduces annually thereafter to $26.95, $26.46, $25.98, $25.49
and finally to $25.00 on July 15, 2004.
7. Stock Option Plan
In May 1999, under the current Stock Option Plan the Company issued
183,000 options to officers and employees at a strike price of $20.75 per share
and 20,000 options to its directors at a strike price of $21.75 per share.
8. Summary of Noncash Investing and Financing Activities

Overview
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the "Selected
Consolidated Financial Information" and the Financial Statements and notes

common stockholders increased by $551 or 21.0% from $2,625 to $3,176, when
compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998, due to an increase in
revenues which were primarily due to the purchase of Wilston Centre I, Wilston
Centre II and Town Center at Sterling in November 1998 (the "1998
Acquisitions"), and Kamp Washington in January 1999 and Newark in August 1999
(the "1999 Acquisitions"), offset by an increase in expenses and income
allocated to minority interest.

<PAGE>
Total revenues increased by $3,059 or 16.5%, from $18,563 to $21,622, due
primarily to an increase in minimum rents of $2,058, and tenant reimbursements
of $468 (both increases are primarily due to the 1998 Acquisitions and 1999
Acquisitions) and an increase in other income of $268 primarily due to a
termination fee received from a tenant.
Property operating and maintenance expense increased by $422, or 9.9%, from
$4,254 to $4,676, due primarily to the 1998 Acquisitions and the 1999
Acquisitions. General and administrative expenses increased by $147 or 17.2%,
from $857 to $1,004. General and Administrative expenses as a percent of total
revenues remained the same at 4.6%
Interest expense increased by $53, or 1.1%, from $4,811 to $4,864 due
primarily to the increased mortgage indebtedness associated with the 1998
Acquisitions and the 1999 Acquisitions offset by the conversion of the $25,000
debentures to Preferred Stock in June 1999. The average debt outstanding
increased from $255.9 million for 1998 to $264.8 million for 1999 and the
weighted average interest rate decreased from 7.5% to 7.4%.
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by $522 or 13.9%, from
$3,766 to $4,288, primarily due to the 1998 Acquisitions and the 1999
Acquisitions.
During 1998, there was a $335 gain on sale of properties. There were no
such transactions during 1999.
Income allocated to minority interests increased by $396 or 35.5% from
$1,116 to $1,512 due to an increase in earnings of $1,195 ($259) and an increase
in the minority interests' ownership of the Operating Partnership during the
period from 21.7% to 23.8% ($137).
Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to the nine months ended
September 30, 1998
For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the net income allocated to
common stockholders increased by $1,319 or 19.0% from $6,940 to $8,259, when
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998 due to an increase in
revenues which were primarily due to the purchase of Watkins Park Plaza in March
1998, Parkville Shopping Center in April 1998, Elkridge Corners Shopping Center
in May 1998, Village Shopping Center in June 1998, Wilston Centre I, Wilston
Centre II and Town Center at Sterling in November 1998 (the "1998
Acquisitions"), and Kamp Washington in January 1999 and Newark Shopping Center
in August 1999 (the "1999 Acquisitions"), offset by a gain on sale of properties
of $2,018 recorded during the first and third quarters of 1998, an increase in
expenses and an increase in income allocated to minority interest.
Total revenues increased by $10,873 or 20.4%, from $53,315 to $64,188, due
primarily to an increase in minimum rents of $7,498 and tenant reimbursements of
$2,385. The increases were primarily due to the 1998 Acquisitions and the 1999
Acquisitions.
Property operating and maintenance expense increased by $1,831 or 14.3%,
from $12,838 to $14,669, due primarily to the 1998 Acquisitions and the 1999
Acquisitions. General and administrative expenses increased by $459 or 16.9%,
from $2,709 to $3,168 due primarily to an increase in the amount of compensation
paid or payable in Company stock of $100 and an increase in the amount of
internal preacquisition costs of $166. Prior to March 19, 1998, internal
preacquisition costs were capitalized and included in the cost of acquiring
rental properties. General and Administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenues decreased from 5.1% to 4.9%.
Interest expense increased by $1,284, or 8.7%, from $14,782 to $16,066 due
primarily to the increased mortgage indebtedness associated with the 1998
Acquisitions and the 1999 Acquisitions offset by the conversion of the $25,000
debentures to Preferred Stock in June 1999. The average debt outstanding
increased from $253.5 million for 1998 to $276.8 million for 1999 and the
weighted average interest rate decreased from 7.8% to 7.7%.
10
<PAGE>
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by $2,094 or 19.6%, from
$10,687 to $12,781, primarily due to the 1998 Acquisitions and the 1999
Acquisitions.
During 1998, there was a $2,018 gain on sale of properties, and a $358
extraordinary loss due to the early extinguishment of debt. There were no such
transactions during 1999.
Income allocated to minority interests increased by $1,022 or 33.3% from
$3,069 to $4,091 due to an increase in earnings of $2,590 ($559) and an increase
in the minority interests' ownership of the Operating Partnership during the
period from 21.6% to 24.3% ($463).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Indebtedness
As of September 30, 1999, the Company had total mortgage indebtedness of
approximately $270.6 million. The mortgage indebtedness consists of
approximately $263.9 million in indebtedness collateralized by 41 of the
properties and tax-exempt bond financing obligations issued by the Philadelphia
Authority for Industrial Development (the "Bond Obligations") of approximately
$6.7 million collateralized by one of the properties. Of the Company's
indebtedness, $26.2 million (9.7%) is variable rate indebtedness, and $244.4
million (90.3%) is at a fixed rate. The effective interest rates of the
indebtedness range from 5.1% to 9.8%, with a weighted average interest rate of
7.6%, and will mature between 1999 and 2014. Approximately 13.3% of the
Company's indebtedness will become due by 2000, requiring balloon payments of
$3.7 million in 1999, and $24.4 million in 2000. From 1999 through 2014, the
Company will have to refinance an aggregate of $216.7 million. Since the Company
anticipates that only a small portion of the principal of such indebtedness will
be repaid prior to maturity and the Company will likely not have sufficient
funds on hand to repay such indebtedness, the Company will need to refinance
such indebtedness through modification or extension of existing indebtedness,
additional debt financing or through an additional offering of equity
securities.
The Company currently has two collateralized revolving lines of credit (the
"Lines of Credit"). The Company has a collateralized revolving Line of Credit of
up to $51,000 (which was increased from $45,000 to $51,000 on October 27, 1999)
with Union Bank of Switzerland. This line is collateralized by seven properties
(Kenhorst Plaza, Shoppes of Graylyn, Watkins Park Plaza, Four Mile Fork, Takoma
Park, Centre Ridge Marketplace and Newtown Square). The line matures on February
1, 2001 and loans under this line bear interest at LIBOR plus one percent
(1%). The Company has an additional collateralized revolving Line of Credit of
up to $5,775 from First Union Bank. Loans under this line bear interest at
LIBOR plus two percent (2%) per annum, and is on a month-to-month basis. This
Line of Credit is collaterized by a first mortgage lien on Brafferton Shopping
Center. As of September 30, 1999, there was $13,000 outstanding under the Lines
of Credit.
Liquidity
The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally
through its working capital, net cash provided by operations and draws on the
Lines of Credit. The Company believes that the foregoing sources of liquidity
will be sufficient to fund liquidity needs through 2000.
The Company expects to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements such
as development, property acquisitions, scheduled debt maturities, renovations,
expansions and other non-recurring capital improvements through long-term
secured and unsecured indebtedness, including the Lines of Credit and the
issuance of additional equity securities. The Company also expects to use funds
available under the Lines of Credit to fund acquisitions, development activities
and capital improvements on an interim basis.

The Company has elected to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax
purposes commencing with its tax year ended December 31, 1994. To qualify as a
REIT, the Company is required, among other items, to pay distributions to its
shareholders of at least 95% of its taxable income. The Company intends to make
quarterly distributions to its shareholders from operating cash flow.
Other
Year 2000 Issue
The "Year 2000 Issue" is the result of many existing computer programs
using only the last two digits to refer to a year. Therefore, these computer
programs may not properly recognize a year that begins with "20" instead of the
familiar "19".
If not corrected, many computer applications could fail or create erroneous
results.
The Company is in the process of conducting a review of its computer
systems to identify which systems could be affected by the "Year 2000" problem
and to what extent such problems will have an impact on the Company 's ability
to conduct its business.
The Company has developed a Year 2000 Compliance Plan ("The Plan") to
address these issues. The Plan is being managed by two of the Company's senior
executives and has been approved by senior management. The progress of the Plan
is being monitored by the Company's Board of Directors. The Plan focuses on four
major components: IT systems such as the Company's accounting and property
management software packages and related hardware; non-IT systems such as the
Company's telephone system, voice mail system and other office equipment; the
state of readiness of the Company's critical trading partners such as its banks,
utilities and tenants; and embedded systems, particularly those located at the
Company's Retail Properties such as sprinkler systems, security systems, etc.
(Note: access to the Retail Properties does not rely on elevator service because
the structures are no higher than two stories.) The Plan contains ten phases as
follows:
Estimated Estimated
Phase Description Start Date Completion Date
1. Educate senior management Commenced Completed
2. Designate a Plan manager Commenced Completed
3. Inventory all systems Commenced Completed
4. Contact suppliers of system Commenced Completed

10. Anticipate contingencies
including the most reasonably
likely worst case scenarios Commenced Continuous
The Company has incurred approximately $75 to date in the
implementation of the Plan. These costs have primarily been incurred to upgrade
the desktop PC's at the Company's home office. The Company has determined that
implementing the Plan will cost less than $100. The Company has incurred
approximately $340 to date and anticipates an additional $160 to replace its
current accounting and property management software system. Although the Company
believes that the current system is materially Year 2000 compliant, the Company
has decided to migrate to a new system because of the improved technology and
reporting capabilities of the new system. The Company successfully converted
to the new system on October 1, 1999. These costs will be funded from the
Company's cash flow. The Plan efforts will be primarily staffed by employees of
the Company.

<PAGE>
The most reasonably likely worst case scenario is that the Company's
tenants are delayed in generating their rental payments due to their own Year
2000 IT problems. If this occurs the Company's property managers will attempt to
accelerate rental payments by requesting manual checks by personally visiting
the tenants or by contacting the appropriate personnel at the tenants' accounts
payable departments. Also, the Company will have available its Lines of Credit
to fund immediate cash flow needs if such delay occurs.
The Company presently believes that the Year 2000 issue will not pose
significant operational problems for the Company. However, if all Year 2000
issues are not properly identified, or if assessment, remediation and testing
are not effected timely or accurately with respect to Year 2000 issues that are
identified, there can be no assurance that the Year 2000 issue will not
materially adversely affect the Company's results of operations. Also, there can
be no assurance that the Year 2000 issues of the Company's suppliers, vendors,
tenants and other important trading partners will not have a material adverse
impact on the Company's business or results of operations.
The costs of the Company's Year 2000 identification, assessment,
remediation and testing efforts and the dates on which the Company believes it
will complete such efforts are based upon management's best estimates, which
were derived using numerous assumptions regarding future events, including the
continued availability of certain resources, third-party remediation plans, and
other factors. There can be no assurance that these estimates will prove to be
accurate, and actual results could differ materially from those currently
anticipated. Specific factors that could cause such material differences
include, but are not limited to, the availability and cost of relevant computer
codes and embedded technology, and similar uncertainties. Although some of the
Company's agreements with suppliers and contractors contain provisions requiring
such parties to indemnify the Company under some circumstances, there can be no
assurance that such indemnification agreements will cover all of the Company's
liabilities and costs related to claims by third parties related to the Year
2000 issue.
Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosure about Market Risk
The Company is exposed to certain financial market risks, the most
predominant being fluctuations in interest rates. Interest rate fluctuations are
monitored by management as an integral part of the Company's overall risk
management program, which recognizes the unpredictability of financial markets
and seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effect on the Company's results. Our
interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate
changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To
achieve these objectives, from time to time we enter into interest rate hedge
contracts such as swap and cap agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate
risk with respect to various debt instruments. We do not hold or issue these
derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. The effect of interest
rate fluctuations historically has been small relative to other factors
affecting operating results, such as rental rates and occupancy.
The Company's operating results are affected by changes in interest
rates on variable rate borrowings including the Company's Line of Credit
facilities as well as other mortgages and notes with variable interest rates. If
interest rates increased by 100 basis points, the Company's interest expense for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 would have increased by $222, based on
balances during the nine months ending September 30, 1999. The following is a
summary of the Company's long term debt as of September 30, 1999:

(1) At September 30, 1999 the LIBOR rate was 5.40%.
(2) This schedule assumes that the Line of Credit is repaid at the maturity
date. Management believes that the line will be renewed at maturity
under similar terms.
(3) The interest rate is determined weekly at the rate necessary to produce
a bid in the process of remarketing the obligation equal to par plus
accrued interest. The Company also pays a 1.5% letter of credit
enhancement fee to Mellon Bank.
Currently the Company has only one interest rate swap contract in effect.
The notional amount is $24,000, the contract period is May 1, 2000 through May
2, 2005. The Company pays a fixed rate of 5.85% and receives the 30 day LIBOR
rate. As of September 30, 1999, this swap contract has a fair market value of
approximately $619. If interest rates increase by 100 basis points, the fair
market value of this interest rate hedge contract as of September 30, 1999 would
increase by approximately $904. If interest rates decrease by 100 basis points,
the fair market value of this interest rate hedge contract as of September 30,
1999 would decrease by approximately $962. In addition, we are exposed to
certain losses in the event of non-performance by the counter party under the
hedge contract. We expect the counter party, which is a major financial
institution, to perform fully under this contract. However, if the counter party
were to default on their obligations under the interest rate hedge contract, we
could be required to pay the full rates on our debt, even if such rates were in
excess of the rates in the contract.
