AMERICAN REALTY INVESTORS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

American Realty
Investors, Inc. (ARI, We, The Company, Our or Us) was organized in 1999. In August 2000, ARI acquired American Realty Trust, Inc. (ART) and National Realty, L.P.
(NRLP). ART was the successor to a business trust organized in 1961 to provide investors with a professionally managed, diversified portfolio of real estate and mortgage loan investments selected to provide opportunities for capital
appreciation as well as current income. The business trust merged into ART in 1987. ART owns a portfolio of real estate and mortgage loan investments. NRLP was organized in 1987 and subsequently acquired all of the assets and assumed all of the
liabilities of 35 public and private limited partnerships. NRLP also owned a portfolio of real estate and mortgage loan investments.

ARI subsidiaries own
approximately 82.2 percent of the outstanding shares of common stock of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc., a Nevada corporation (TCI), which has its common stock listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc.
(NYSE). The ownership of the TCI shares was achieved through a series of transactions, including a cash tender offer completed March 19, 2003, an exchange by certain ARI subsidiaries of securities with Basic Capital Management, Inc.
(BCM) and a sale of a participating interest in a line of credit receivable from One Realco Corporation (One Realco) to BCM, as well as certain open market purchases of TCI shares in December 2003. ARI has consolidated
TCIs accounts and operations since March 31, 2003. At September 30, 2007, TCI owned approximately 24.8 percent of the outstanding common stock of Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc., (IORI), a public company whose
shares are listed and traded on the American Stock Exchange.

The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited; however, the financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of
normal recurring matters) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statement for these interim periods have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for
other interim periods or for the full fiscal year. The year end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosure required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.

Newly issued accounting standards.

In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value
measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 to have a material impact on the Companys cash flows, results of operations,
financial position or liquidity.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at
fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses shall be reported on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating and assessing the impact of this statement.

In January 2007, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company acquired two office building projects in
Farmers Branch, Texas known as Park West I and Park West II (subsequently renamed Browning Place and Fenton Centre, respectively) along with an adjacent 4.7 acre tract of undeveloped land at an aggregate purchase price of $110 million plus closing
costs. The acquisition was financed in part with $97.0 million in two separate mortgage loans; a $35.0 million loan from an institutional lender which accrues interest at 6.06 percent maturing January 2013 (Park West II) and a $62.0 million loan
from a commercial bank which accrues interest at Wall Street Journal Prime plus one percent maturing January 2009 (Park West I). Both loans are secured by the respective office buildings and are guaranteed by ARI.

Our majority owned subsidiary, TCI, has formed a number of joint ventures with Icon Partners, LLC (Icon) to develop various residential, commercial and
mixed-use projects. Our subsidiary typically owns 75 percent of these joint ventures, arranges for and guarantees all debt financing and provides all required equity capital. The terms of the joint ventures also allow our subsidiary to receive its
cumulative investment plus a preferred return before Icon receives any equity distribution. Icon provides various development and project management services to the joint ventures and is paid monthly developer fees for those services. At
September 30, 2007, our subsidiary had formed a total of eleven joint ventures with Icon to develop eleven projects. Total costs incurred to date, including land acquisition costs, for these eleven projects are $87.2 million, of which $59.8
million has been funded with land and construction loans from various commercial banks. At September 30, 2007, only one of the eleven projects was undergoing vertical construction  the 212 unit Portofino apartment project located within
our Mercer Crossing development in Farmers Branch, Texas which will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2007.

In 2007, we sold three apartment
communities and two-office building for sales prices totaling $43.7 million, generating cash proceeds of $8.4 million and recognized gains of $12.0 million. The apartment properties were located in Lewisville, Texas and Texas City, Texas; the office
buildings were located in Richmond, Virginia and Durham, North Carolina.

In 2007, we sold 194 acres of land in 16 separate transactions for sales prices
totaling $27.1 million, generating $7.4 million in cash proceeds and $11.9 million in recognized gains. The largest 2007 transactions were 1) the sale of 13.8 acres of the McKinney Ranch tract for $2.9 million, resulting in cash proceeds
of $700,000 and a recognized gain of $1.1 million and 2) the sale of the 2.7-acre West End tract for $6.5 million, resulting in cash proceeds of $1.3 million and a recognized gain of $3.8 million.

In July 2007 we acquired 1.7 acres of land know as the Jackson Convention Center land for development. The acquisition was purchased with $3.9 million in cash generated
through various refinancings.

The Company is involved in the construction of 14 apartment development projects as of September 30, 2007. In
addition, the Company invests in numerous tracts of land and is in the predevelopment on several of these properties. The Company partners with various third-party developers to construct residential projects. The third-party developer typically
takes a general partner interest in the development partnership while the Company takes a limited partner (and majority) interest. The Company is required to fund all equity contributions. The third-party developer is responsible for obtaining
financing, hiring a general contractor and for the overall management and delivery of the project and is compensated with a fee equal to a certain percentage of the construction costs. Initial equity contributions to development projects are
recorded as investments in unconsolidated real estate entities. When vertical construction begins, the Company reclassifies the investment in unconsolidated real estate entities to construction in progress. Increases to construction in progress are
recorded as development loans are funded and development costs are incurred. As projects near completion and begin to be leased, the Company records revenues as earned and expenses as incurred. When the occupancy of a developed project reaches
stabilization, the Company acquires the general partner interest from the third-party developer and reclassifies the property from construction in progress to property held for investment.

In 2007, we financed the acquisition of two office buildings projects in Farmers Branch, Texas known as Park West
I and Park West II (subsequently renamed Browning Place and Fenton Centre, respectively) for $97 million, See note 2.

Our subsidiary TCI has formed a
number of joint ventures with Icon Partners, LLC (Icon) to develop various residential, commercial and mixed-use projects in which construction draws are obtained, See note 2.

In 2007, we refinanced the existing debt on its three Chicago hotels. The loans were refinanced in three separate transactions with a single lender. On January 17,
2007, the Company refinanced the existing $3.6 million mortgage on the City Suites Hotel with a new loan of $7.3 million and received $3.8 million in proceeds. The new loan accrues interest at prime and matures in February 2012. On March 5,
2007, we refinanced the existing $3.1 million loan on the Majestic Hotel with a new loan of $6.0 million and received $2.9 million in proceeds. The new loan accrues interest at a rate of 7.76 percent and matures in March 2010. On March 5,
2007, the Company refinanced the existing $3.4 million loan on the Willows Surf Hotel with a new $5.2 million loan and received $1.5 million in proceeds. The new loan bears an interest rate of 7.76 percent and matures in March 2010. The three loans
are secured by the individual hotel properties, are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted and are guaranteed by ARI. On March 16, 2007, we refinanced $11.6 million existing debt on three California hotels in three separate transactions
with a single lender for $28.7 million of new debt, generating $14.6 million in cash proceeds. The three loans are secured by the individual hotel properties, are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted and are guaranteed by ARI. The three loans
mature in February 2012 and accrue interest at 8.0 percent.

In June 2007, we refinanced the existing $12.3 million debt on eight apartment properties in
Midland and Odessa, Texas. The loans were refinanced with a single lender; the new loans totaled $33.2 million and generated $21.0 million in proceeds. The new loans bear interest at the rate of 7.03 percent per annum and mature in July 2037. The
loans are secured by the individual apartment properties, are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted and are guaranteed by ARI. In addition, we refinanced the existing $3.6 million debt on two more apartment properties in Midland. The new loans
from a commercial bank totaled $6.9 million and resulted in $1.6 million in proceeds. The two loans are secured by the individual apartment properties, bear interest at prime plus 100 basis points and matured in September 2007; the loans were
subsequently extended to September 2008. Both loans are guaranteed by ARI.

In September 2007, we refinanced the existing $13.1 million loan on the Amoco
office building located in downtown New Orleans. The new loan from an institutional lender totaled $19.5 million and resulted in $4.6 million in proceeds. The new loan is secured by the office building, bears interest at the rate of 10-year treasury
plus 165 basis points, matures September 2008 and is guaranteed by ARI.

In September 2007, affiliates of ARI refinanced $32.8 million of existing matured
mortgage loans on three residential apartment communities located in Austin, Dallas and Lewisville, Texas and known as Limestone Canyon, Tivoli and Limestone Ranch, respectively. The new loans, all from a single lender, total $38.7 million, accrue
interest at 5.95 percent per annum, mature in October 2042, are collateralized by the properties (but are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted). ARI received proceeds of $3.5 million from the refinancings. ARI carries these properties as
real estate subject to sales contract based upon certain 2003 transactions (whereby ARI conveyed the three properties to subsidiaries of Unified Housing Foundation, an affiliated organization) which did not qualify as sales under
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In 2007, the Company obtained additional financing or refinanced existing loans
on seven tracts of land containing a total of approximately 300 acres, virtually all of which is located in the greater Dallas/Ft. Worth area. The new loans totaled $26.8 million and generated $16.7 million in proceeds. The new loans have one-year
maturities and bear interest at rates currently averaging approximately 10.5 percent.

NOTE 7. STOCK-SECURED NOTES PAYABLE

ARI has margin arrangements with various financial institutions and brokerage firms, which provide for borrowings of up to 50.0 percent of the market value of marketable equity securities. ARI also has other notes
payable secured by stock. The borrowings under such margin arrangements and notes are secured by the equity securities of IORI and TCI, and ARIs trading portfolio securities and bear interest rates ranging from 9.5 percent to 24.0
percent per annum. Stock-secured notes payable and margin borrowings totaled $22.5 million at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

NOTE 9. OPERATING SEGMENTS

Significant differences among the accounting policies of the operating segments as compared to the Consolidated Financial Statements principally involve the calculation and allocation of administrative and other
expenses. Management evaluates the performance of each of the operating segments and allocates resources to them based on their net operating income and cash flow. There are no intersegment revenues and expenses, and ARI conducted all of its
business within the United States, with the exception of Hotel Akademia (Wroclaw, Poland), which began operations in 2002.

Presented below are ARIs
reportable segments operating income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, and segment assets at September 30, 2007 and 2006.

NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Liquidity.ARIs principal liquidity needs are funding normal recurring expenses, meeting debt service requirements, funding capital expenditures, funding development costs not otherwise covered by
construction loans and funding new property acquisitions not otherwise covered by acquisition financing. ARI intends to rely on aggressive land sales, selected income producing property sales and to the extent necessary, additional borrowings to
meet its cash requirements.

Partnership Obligations. ARI is the limited partner in nine partnerships that are currently constructing residential
properties. As permitted in the respective partnership agreements, ARI presently intends to purchase the interests of the general and any other limited partners in these partnerships subsequent to the final completion of these construction projects.
The amounts paid to buyout the non-affiliated partners are limited to development fees earned by the non-affiliated partners and are set forth in the respective partnership agreements.

Litigation.ARI is involved in various lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these lawsuits will not have a material impact on ARIs financial
condition, results of operations or liquidity.

NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 11, 2007, subsidiaries of TCI settled the Waters Edge litigation. This was related to Hurricane Katrina and the subsequent dispute over proper allocation of insurance proceeds from that event. We recorded $28.2 million in
insurance proceeds from the settlement. This litigation settles all matters related to the Hurricane Katrina disaster.



|ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

This Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, principally, but not only, under the captions Business, Risk Factors and
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements in this report, or which management may make orally or in writing from time to time, are
based on managements beliefs and on assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. When used, the words anticipate, believe, expect, intend, may,
might, plan, estimate, project, should, will, result and similar expressions which do not relate solely to historical matters are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance, which may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are beyond our
control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. We caution you that, while forward-looking
statements reflect our good faith beliefs when we make them, they are not guarantees of future performance and are impacted by actual events when they occur after we make such statements. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update our
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on results and trends at the time they are made,
to anticipate future results or trends.

Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ
materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:



| |  |  | general risks affecting the real estate industry (including, without limitation, the inability to enter into or renew leases, dependence on tenants financial
condition and competition from other developers, owners and operators of real estate);
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | risks associated with the availability and terms of financing and the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | failure to manage effectively our growth and expansion into new markets or to integrate acquisitions successfully;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | risks and uncertainties affecting property development and construction (including, without limitation, construction delays, cost overruns, inability to obtain
necessary permits and public opposition to such activities);
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | risks associated with downturns in the national and local economies, increases in interest rates and volatility in the securities markets;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | costs of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other similar laws and regulations;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potential liability for uninsured losses and environmental contamination;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | risks associated with our dependence on key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the other risk factors identified in this Form 10-Q, including those described under the caption Risk Factors.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The risks included here are not exhaustive. Other sections of this report include additional factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance.
Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on
our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue
reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. Investors should also refer to our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for future periods and current reports on Form 8-K as we file them with the SEC, and to other materials we
may furnish to the public from time to time through Forms 8-K or otherwise.

ARI is an
externally advised and managed real estate investment company that owns a diverse portfolio of income-producing properties and land held for development. The Companys portfolio of income-producing properties includes residential apartment
communities, office buildings, hotels, a trade mart located in Denver, Colorado and other commercial properties. Our investment strategy includes acquiring existing income-producing properties as well as developing new properties on land already
owned or acquired for a specific development project. We acquire land primarily in in-fill locations or high-growth suburban markets. We own approximately 14,600 units in 80 residential apartment communities, 30 commercial properties comprising
almost 5.8 million rentable square feet and ten hotels containing a total of 1,235 rooms, 10,858 acres of land held for development and had over 2,400 apartment units in 14 projects under construction. We have income-producing properties and
land in 20 states as well as in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Wroclaw, Poland. We finance our acquisitions primarily through operating cash flow, proceeds from the sale of land and income-producing properties and debt financing primarily in the form
of property-specific first-lien mortgage loans from commercial banks and institutional lenders. We finance development projects principally with short-term, variable interest rate construction loans that are refinanced with long-term, fixed rate
amortizing mortgages when the development project is completed and occupancy has been stabilized. We will, from time to time, also enter into partnerships with various investors to acquire income-producing properties or land and to sell interests in
certain of its wholly-owned properties. When we sell assets, we may carry a portion of the sales price generally in the form of a short-term, interest bearing seller-financed note receivable. We generate operating revenues primarily by leasing
apartment units to residents; leasing office, retail and industrial space to commercial tenants; and renting hotel rooms to guests. We are advised by Prime under a contractual arrangement that is reviewed annually by our Board of Directors.
ARIs commercial properties are managed by Regis Commercial while the Companys hotels are managed by Regis Hotel. ARI currently contracts with four third-party companies to manage the Companys apartment communities. ARI is a
C Corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and files an annual consolidated income tax return with TCI.

ARIs Board of
Directors is responsible for managing the affairs of ARI and for setting the policies which guide the Company. The Companys day-to-day operations are managed by Prime. Primes duties include, among other things, locating, investigating,
evaluating and recommending real estate, mortgage note investment and sales opportunities, as well as financing and refinancing sources. Prime also serves as a consultant in connection with ARIs business plan and investment decisions made by
the Board.

ARI is majority-owned by entities that are indirectly owned by a trust established for the benefit of the children of Gene E. Phillips (the
Trust). Prime is a single-member limited liability company. Certain officers of ARI also serve as officers of Prime. The single-member of Prime is a corporation 80 percent indirectly owned by the Trust; entities controlled by
Mr. Phillips own the remaining 20 percent. Approximately 58 percent of ARIs common stock is owned by BCM; an additional 13 percent is owned by Prime and TCI owns approximately seven percent of the outstanding common shares of ARI. Other
affiliated companies own approximately two percent of ARIs outstanding common shares.

Selected transactions for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 include the following:

Acquisitions 

In January 2007, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company acquired two office building projects in Farmers Branch, Texas known as Park West I and Park West II (subsequently renamed Browning Place and Fenton
Centre, respectively) along with an adjacent 4.7 acre tract of undeveloped land at an aggregate purchase price of $110 million plus closing costs. The acquisition was financed in part with $97.0 million in two separate mortgage loans; a $35.0
million loan from an institutional lender which accrues interest at 6.06 percent maturing January 2013 (Park West II) and a $62.0 million loan from a commercial bank which accrues interest at Wall Street Journal Prime plus one percent maturing
January 2009 (Park West I). Both loans are secured by the respective office buildings and are guaranteed by ARI.

For the nine months ended
September 30, 2007, we acquired over 277 acres of land for development in 11 separate transactions for $19.7 million plus closing costs. Five of the ten land acquisitions were financed with a total of $9.7 million in loans from commercial
banks; generally, the loans have a maturity of one year or less, bear interest rates currently averaging 9.25 percent and are guaranteed by ARI. The largest land acquisitions include 1) 151 acres in Waco, Texas for $2.1 million plus closing costs;
2) 40 acres in Irving, Texas for $8.5 million plus closing costs and 3) 48 acres in Natchez, Mississippi for $519,000 plus closing costs. The Company purchased five tracts in Odessa, Texas, Denham, Louisiana and Jackson, Mississippi for near-term
multi-family development.

In the second quarter 2007, we exchanged 82.2 acres of the Denton Coonrod tract (located in Denton, Texas) with an
affiliated company, acquiring Thornwood Apartments in Midland, Texas as well as a note receivable from the affiliate in the amount of $1.6 million. The loan accrues interest at the rate of 9 percent per annum and is due on demand. No gain or loss
was recognized on the exchange.

Dispositions 

In 2007, we sold three apartment communities and two office building for sales prices totaling $43.7 million, generating cash proceeds of $8.4 million and recognized gains of $12.0 million. The apartment properties were located in
Lewisville, Texas and Texas City, Texas; the office buildings were located in Richmond, Virginia and Durham, North Carolina.

In addition, in 2007 we sold
194 acres of land in 16 separate transactions for sales prices totaling $27.1 million, generating $7.4 million in cash proceeds and $11.9 million in recognized gains. The largest 2007 transactions were 1) the sale of 13.8 acres of the McKinney
Ranch tract for $2.9 million, resulting in cash proceeds of $700,000 and a recognized gain of $1.1 million and 2) the sale of the 2.7 acre West End tract for $6.5 million, resulting in cash proceeds of $1.3 million and a recognized
gain of $3.8 million.

Refinancings 

In
2007, we refinanced the existing debt on its three Chicago hotels. The loans were refinanced in three separate transactions with a single lender. On January 17, 2007, the Company refinanced the existing $3.6 million mortgage on the City Suites
Hotel with a new loan of $7.3 million and received $3.8 million in proceeds. The new loan accrues interest at prime and matures in February 2012. On March 5, 2007, we refinanced the existing $3.1 million loan on the Majestic Hotel with a new
loan of $6.0 million and received $2.9 million in proceeds. The new loan accrues interest at a rate of 7.76 percent and matures in March 2010. On March 5, 2007, the Company refinanced the existing $3.4 million loan on the Willows Surf Hotel
with a new $5.2 million loan and received $1.5 million in proceeds. The new loan bears an interest rate of 7.76 percent and matures in March 2010. The three loans are secured by the individual hotel properties, are not cross-collateralized or
cross-defaulted and are guaranteed by ARI. On March 16, 2007, we refinanced $11.6 million existing debt on three California hotels in three separate transactions with a single lender for $28.7 million of new debt, generating $14.6 million in
cash proceeds. The three loans are secured by the individual hotel properties, are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted and are guaranteed by ARI. The three loans mature in February 2012 and accrue interest at 8.0 percent.

In June 2007, we refinanced the existing $12.3 million debt on eight apartment properties in Midland and Odessa, Texas. The loans were refinanced with a single lender;
the new loans totaled $33.2 million and generated $21.0 million in proceeds. The new loans bear interest at the rate of 7.03 percent per annum and mature in July 2037. The loans are secured by the individual apartment properties, are not
cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted and are guaranteed by ARI. In addition, we refinanced the existing $3.6 million debt on two more apartment properties in Midland. The new loans from a commercial bank totaled $6.9 million and resulted in $1.6
million in proceeds. The two loans are secured by the individual apartment properties, bear interest at prime plus 100 basis points and matured in September 2007; the loans were subsequently extended to September 2008. Both loans are guaranteed by
ARI.

In September 2007, we refinanced the existing $13.1 million loan on the Amoco office building located in downtown New Orleans. The new loan from an
institutional lender totaled $19.5 million and resulted in $4.6 million in proceeds. The new loan is secured by the office building, bears interest at the rate of 10-year treasury plus 165 basis points, matures September 2008 and is guaranteed by
ARI.

In September 2007, affiliates of ARI refinanced $32.8 million of existing matured mortgage loans on three residential apartment communities located
in Austin, Dallas and Lewisville, Texas and known as Limestone Canyon, Tivoli and Limestone Ranch, respectively. The new loans, all from a single lender, total $38.7 million, accrue interest at 5.95 percent per annum, mature in October 2042, are
collateralized by the properties (but are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted). ARI received proceeds of $3.5 million from the refinancings. ARI carries these properties as real estate subject to sales contract based upon certain
2003 transactions (whereby ARI conveyed the three properties to subsidiaries of Unified Housing Foundation, an affiliated organization) which did not qualify as sales under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In 2007, the Company obtained additional financing or refinanced existing loans on seven tracts of land containing a total of approximately 300 acres,
virtually all of which is located in the greater Dallas/Ft. Worth area. The new loans totaled $26.8 million and generated $16.7 million in proceeds. The new loans have one-year maturities and bear interest at rates currently averaging approximately
10.5 percent.

Apartment developments

At
September 30, 2007, the Company had 14 apartment communities under construction. Seven of the projects are located in Texas; five properties are located in Mississippi while one property is located in Arkansas and one property is located in
Tennessee. When completed, the 14 properties will contain a total of 2,401 units. Total land and construction costs are approximately $95,000 per unit. The Company expects to complete and deliver 1,400 units in 2007 with the remaining 1,000 units to
be completed and delivered in 2008. The Company estimates lease-up time to stabilized occupancy for these projects to be approximately 18-24 months.

Joint ventures

We formed a number of joint ventures with Icon Partners, LLC (Icon) to develop various residential, commercial and mixed-use projects. We typically own 75 percent of these joint ventures, arranges for and guarantees all debt
financing and provides all required equity capital. The terms of the joint ventures also allows us to receive its cumulative investment plus a preferred return before Icon receives any equity distribution. Icon provides various development and
project management services to the joint ventures and is paid monthly developer fees for those services. At September 30, 2007, we had formed a total of eleven joint ventures with Icon to develop eleven projects. Total costs incurred to date,
including land acquisition costs, for these eleven projects are $104.9 million, of which $84.9 million has been funded with land and construction loans from various commercial banks. At September 30, 2007, only one of the eleven
projects was in vertical construction, the 212 unit Portofino apartment project located within our Mercer Crossing development in Farmers Branch, Texas, which will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2007.

We include these joint ventures in the Companys consolidated financial statements and record a minority interest for Icons equity in the ventures.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. We
base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is
possible that different accounting policies would have been applied resulting in a different presentation of our financial statements. From time to time, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. In the event estimates or assumptions prove to be
different from actual results, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect information that is more current. Below is a discussion of accounting policies that we consider critical in that they may require complex judgment in their
application or require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.

Real Estate

Upon acquisitions of real estate, ARI assesses the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets, including land, buildings, tenant improvements,
above-market and below-market leases, origination costs, acquired in-place leases, other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 141, Business Combinations and allocates the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including land at appraised value and buildings at replacement cost.

We assess and consider fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and/or capitalization rates, as well as available market
information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property
considers the value of the property as if it were vacant. We also consider an allocation of purchase price of other acquired intangibles, including acquired in-place leases that may have a customer relationship intangible value, including (but not
limited to) the nature and extent of the existing relationship with the tenants, the tenants credit quality and expectations of lease renewals. Based on our acquisitions to date, our allocation to customer relationship intangible assets has
been immaterial.

We record acquired above-market and below-market leases at their fair values (using a discount rate which
reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) equal to the difference between (a) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (b) managements estimate of fair market lease rates for each
corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.

Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values that are based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenants lease.
Factors to be considered include estimates of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, we include real estate taxes,
insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, we consider leasing commissions, legal
and other related expenses.

Real estate is stated at depreciated cost. The cost of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price of property,
legal fees and other acquisition costs. Costs directly related to the development of properties are capitalized. Capitalized development costs include interest, property taxes, insurance and other project costs incurred during the period of
development.

Management reviews its long-lived assets used in operations for impairment when there is an event or change in
circumstances that indicates an impairment in value. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of its assets is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. If such impairment is present, an impairment loss is recognized based on the
excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ
materially from actual results in future periods. If we determine that impairment has occurred, the affected assets must be reduced to their face value.

SFAS No. 144 requires that qualifying assets and liabilities and the results of operations that have been sold, or otherwise qualify as held for sale, be presented as discontinued operations in all periods presented if the
property operations are expected to be eliminated and the Company will not have significant continuing involvement following the sale. The components of the propertys net income that is reflected as discontinued operations include the net gain
or loss upon the disposition of the property held for sale, operating results, depreciation and interest expense (if the property is subject to a secured loan). We generally consider assets to be held for sale when the transaction has
been approved by our Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, and there are no known significant contingencies relating to the sale, such that the property sale within one year is considered probable. Following the classification of a property as
held for sale, no further depreciation is recorded on the assets.

A variety of costs are incurred in the acquisition, development and leasing
of properties. After determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that is benefited. Determination of when a development project is substantially complete and capitalization must cease involves a
degree of judgment. Our capitalization policy on development properties is guided by SFAS No. 34 Capitalization of Interest Cost and SFAS No. 67 Accounting for Costs and the Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate
Properties. The costs of land and buildings under development include specifically identifiable costs. The capitalized costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs,
interest costs, real estate taxes, salaries and related costs and other costs incurred during the period of development. We consider a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the receipt of certificates
of occupancy, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity. We cease capitalization on the portion (a) substantially completed and (b) occupied or held available for occupancy and we capitalize only those costs
associated with the portion under construction.

Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures

Except for ownership interests in variable interest entities, ARI accounts for our investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures under the equity method of
accounting because the Company exercises significant influence over, but does not control, these entities. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures and subsequently adjusted for equity
in earnings and cash contributions and distributions. Any difference between the carrying amount of these investments on the Companys balance sheet and the underlying equity in net assets is amortized as an adjustment to equity in earnings of
unconsolidated real estate ventures over the life of the related asset. Under the equity method of accounting, ARIs net equity is reflected within the Consolidated Balance Sheets and our share of net income or loss from the joint ventures is
included within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The joint venture agreements may designate different percentage allocations among investors for profits and losses; however, ARIs recognition of joint venture income or loss generally
follows the joint ventures distribution priorities, which may change upon the achievement of certain investment return thresholds. For ownership interests in variable interest entities, the Company consolidates those in which we are the
primary beneficiary.

Recognition of Rental Income

Rental income for commercial property leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms. In accordance with SFAS 141, we recognize rental revenue of acquired in-place above-market and
below-market leases at their fair values over the terms of the respective leases. On our Consolidated Balance Sheets we include as a receivable, the excess of rental income recognized over rental payments actually received pursuant to
the terms of the individual commercial lease agreements.

Reimbursements of operating costs, as allowed under most of our commercial tenant leases, consist
of amounts due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs, and are recognized as revenue in the period in which the recoverable expenses are incurred. We record these reimbursements on a gross
basis, since we generally are the primary obligor with respect to purchasing goods and services from third-party suppliers, have discretion in selecting the supplier and have the credit risk with respect to paying the supplier.

##### Table of Contents

Rental income for residential property leases is recorded when due from residents and is recognized monthly as earned,
which is not materially different than on a straight-line basis as lease terms are generally for periods of one year or less.

For hotel properties,
revenues for room sales and guest services are recognized as rooms are occupied and as services are rendered.

An allowance for doubtful accounts is
recorded for all past due rents and operating expense reimbursements considered to be uncollectible.

Revenue Recognition on the Sale of Real Estate

Sales of real estate are recognized when and to the extent permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 66, Accounting for
Sales of Real Estate (SFAS No. 66), as amended by SFAS No. 144. Until the requirements of SFAS No. 66 for full profit recognition have been met, transactions are accounted for using the deposit, installment, cost
recovery or financing method, whichever is appropriate. When ARI provides seller financing, gain is not recognized at the time of sale unless the buyers initial investment and continuing investment are deemed to be adequate as determined by
SFAS 66 guidelines.

Non-performing Notes Receivable

ARI considers a note receivable to be non-performing when the maturity date has passed without principal repayment and the borrower is not making interest payments. Any new note receivable that results from a modification or extension of a
note considered non-performing will also be considered non-performing, without regard to the borrowers adherence to payment terms.

Interest
Recognition on Notes Receivable

Interest income is not recognized on notes receivable that have been delinquent for 60 days or more. In addition,
accrued but unpaid interest income is only recognized to the extent that the net realizable value of the underlying collateral exceeds the carrying value of the receivable.

Allowance for Estimated Losses

A valuation allowance is provided for estimated losses on notes receivable considered
to be impaired. Impairment is considered to exist when it is probable that all amounts due under the terms of the note will not be collected. Valuation allowances are provided for estimated losses on notes receivable to the extent that the
investment in the note exceeds managements estimate of fair value of the collateral securing such note.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of our notes receivable, marketable equity securities and notes payable. For performing
notes receivable, the fair value was estimated by discounting future cash flows using current interest rates for similar loans. For non-performing notes receivable, the estimated fair value of our interest in the collateral property was used. For
marketable equity securities, fair value was based on the year-end closing market price of each security. For notes payable, the fair value was estimated using current rates for mortgages with similar terms and maturities.

Management anticipates
that our available cash at September 30, 2007, along with cash that will be generated in 2007 from property operations, may not be sufficient to meet all of our cash requirements. Management intends to selectively sell land and income producing
assets, refinance or extend real estate debt and seek additional borrowings secured by real estate to meet its liquidity requirements. Historically, management has been successful at extending a portion of the Companys current maturity
obligations. Management also anticipates funding ongoing real estate development projects and the acquisition of new real estate from cash generated by sales of land and income-producing properties, debt refinancings or extensions and additional
borrowings.

Net cash used in operating activities increased $42.6 million to $(24.7 million) for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $17.9
million provided by operations for the same period in 2006. Cash flow from operations is largely comprised of rental and other income less operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, advisory fees expense and interest expense. The
increase in use was due to an increase in interest expense $21.0 million, litigation settlement $1.6, and other net changes in working capital of $24.3 million, offsets by an increase in operating income $1.2, other income $3.1.

Management expects that our existing cash balances, selective sales of land and income-producing properties, refinancing of and additional borrowings against the
Companys real estate holdings will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements associated with its current and anticipated level of operations, maturing debt obligations and existing commitments. To the extent that our liquidity permits or
financing sources are available and the investments are otherwise deemed to be profitable, management intends to make additional investments in real estate or real estate-related projects.

Net cash used in investing activities was $(208.9 million) for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $(88.8 million) for the same period in 2006.
Cash used in investing activities increased $120.1 million due to an increase in investments in real estate (including investments in income-producing properties, land held for development, residential and other development projects, the most
significant of which was the January 2007 acquisition of Park West I and II) of $110.0 million, construction and development of new rental properties of $165.9 million, a decrease in the collection transfers and sale of notes receivables $35.5
million, and improvements in real estate and income producing properties of $11.4 million, investment in joint ventures $9.2 million, offset by an increase in proceeds from sales of land and income producing properties $150.5 million, and
acquisitions of land of $26.0 million and other $1.2 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $235.9 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 compared to $67.5 million for the same period in 2006. Cash provided by financing activities increased $210.1 million due primarily to increased proceeds from additional borrowings of $546.5 million for acquisitions and
refinancings (net of deferred financing costs), offset by an increase in loan payoffs related to property sales and refinancings of $248.7 million, increase in payments on loans to/from affiliates of $45.4 million, recurring principal payments
13.3 million and other of $500,000.

Management reviews the carrying values of ARIs properties and mortgage notes receivable at least annually
and whenever events or a change in circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Impairment is considered to exist if, in the case of a property, the future cash flow from the property (undiscounted and without interest) is less than the
carrying amount of the property. For notes receivable, impairment is considered to exist if it is probable that all amounts due under the terms of the note will not be collected. If impairment is found to exist, a provision for loss is recorded by a
charge against earnings. The note receivable review includes an evaluation of the collateral property securing such note. The property review generally includes: (a) selective property inspections; (b) a review of the propertys
current rents compared to market rents; (c) a review of the propertys expenses; (d) a review of maintenance requirements; (5) a review of the propertys cash flow; (e) discussions with the manager of the property; and
(f) a review of properties in the surrounding area.

Related Party Transactions

Historically, TCI, ARI, IORI, and others have each engaged in and may continue to engage in business transactions, including real estate partnerships, with related
parties. Management believes that all of the related party transactions represented the best investments available at the time and were at least as advantageous to ARI as could have been obtained from unrelated parties.

Equity Investments. Since 1988, ARI has from time to time purchased shares of IORI and TCI, both of which had the same advisor as ARI until June 2003. The Company
may purchase additional equity securities of IORI and TCI through open market and negotiated transactions to the extent ARIs liquidity permits.

##### Table of Contents

Equity securities of TCI held by ARI (and of IORI held by TCI) may be deemed restricted securities under Rule
144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act). Accordingly, ARI may be unable to sell such equity securities other than in a registered public offering or pursuant to an exemption under the Securities Act for a one-year period after
they are acquired. Such restrictions may reduce ARIs ability to realize the full fair market value of such investments if ARI attempted to dispose of such securities in a short period of time.

Commitments and Contingencies

ARI has contractual obligations
and commitments primarily with regards to payment of mortgages.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended September 30, 2007:

We
reported a net loss applicable to common shares of ($3.4) million for the three months ended September 30, 2007, including income from discontinued operations (before income taxes) of $5.9 million and gains on land sales of $7.0 million, as
compared to a net loss applicable to common shares of ($5.5) million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, including income from discontinued operations (before income taxes) of $2.2 million and gains on land sales of $4.5 million. We
define our same-store universe for each income-producing asset type (apartments, commercial properties and hotels) as properties with stabilized occupancy owned and operated since July 1, 2006. For this time period, we had 65 apartments, 24
commercial properties and 4 hotels in its same-store universe.

Rental and other property revenues

Rental and other property revenues increased $6.6 million or 15 percent over 2006. The overall increase is due to a $2.2 million increase in rental revenues from our
apartment communities, a $3.3 million increase from the Companys commercial portfolio and a $1.1 million increase from the hotel portfolio, and other $200,000, offset by a $200,000 decline in rents and royalty revenues from ARIs land
portfolio.

Within the apartment portfolio, same-store rental revenues increased $600,000 or three percent over 2006. Average overall occupancy for the
same-store apartment portfolio was 94 percent in 2007 and 2006. The May 2007 acquisition of a single apartment community in Midland, Texas represented $200,000 of the increase while increased revenues from newly-developed properties comprised the
remaining difference of $1.5 million. In 2007, nine newly-developed properties generated rental revenues of $2.5 million compared to five newly-developed properties and $1.0 million of rental revenues in 2006. Average occupancy for the
newly-developed properties was 71 percent in 2007 compared to 52 percent in 2006.

Within the commercial portfolio, same-store rental revenues declined
$2.7 million, from $13.7 million in 2006 from $11.0 million in 2007. The decrease was due principally to a $1.7 million decline at 600 Las Colinas Boulevard (Dallas, Texas), a $600,000 combined decrease at the Companys New Orleans office
buildings, a $200,000 decline at a Ft. Worth industrial property and a $200,000 decline at a Colorado Springs office building. Occupancy at 600 Las Colinas Boulevard declined from 90 percent at September 30, 2006 to 65 percent at
September 30, 2007 due primarily to the June 2007 move-out of a 127,000 square foot tenant and a decrease in operating cost recoveries in 2007 as compared to 2006. Occupancy for the same-store New Orleans office buildings was 31 percent at
September 30, 2006 compared to 100 percent at September 30, 2007. Increases in rental revenues of $6.0 million from acquired properties, particularly the January 2007 acquisition of the Park West I and Park West II office projects
(subsequently renamed Browning Place and Fenton Centre respectively), offset the same-store declines.

Rental revenues within our hotel portfolio increased
$1.2 million or 16 percent in 2007 compared to 2006; Akademias average occupancy in 2007 was 82 percent as compared to 84 percent in 2006; average nightly rates increased to $103 in 2007 from $73 in 2006. Occupancies within our eight domestic
hotels, three located in Chicago, increased from an average of 59 percent for the third quarter in 2006 to an average of 61 percent for the same period in 2007. Average nightly rental rates for the Chicago hotels increased from $171 in 2006 to $177
in 2007; occupancies for the four hotels located in California, decreased from an average of 62 percent for the third quarter in 2006 to an average of 61 percent for the same period in 2007. Average nightly rental rates for the California hotels
increased from $86 in 2006 to $89 in 2007; occupancies for the hotel in Denver, increased from an average of 59 percent for the third quarter in 2006 to an average of 64 percent for the same period in 2007. Average nightly rental rates for the
Denver hotel increased from $69 in 2006 to $75 in 2007.

Rents and royalty revenues for our land portfolio declined $200,000 from the same period in 2006
due principally to lower royalties received on oil and gas leases covering certain of the Companys land parcels in Ft. Worth.

Property operating expenses

Property operating expenses increased to $31.3 million in 2007 as compared to $28.5 million in 2006 due to a $2.3 million increase in the commercial portfolio, a $1.6 million increase in the apartment portfolio, a
$400,000 increase in land-related property and, offset by a $1.5 million decrease in the hotel portfolio operating expenses.

Operating expenses for the
same-store commercial portfolio declined slightly, from $8.1 million in 2006 to $7.8 million in 2007, due primarily to operating efficiencies. Operating margins for the same-store commercial properties declined to 30 percent from 41 percent in 2006,
due principally to lower occupancy. Overall, the same-store commercial portfolio was 80 percent occupied at September 30, 2007 compared to 82 percent at the same time in 2006. Our acquisition portfolio of six properties was 85 percent occupied
at September 30, 2007; properties acquired in 2007 accounted for $2.5 million of the increase in commercial property operating expenses.

Within the
apartment portfolio, same-store property operating expenses increase by $900,000, properties acquired increased by $100,000 and developed properties increased by $500,000. Operating margins for the same store apartments declined to 43 percent in
2007 from 46 percent in 2006.

Within the Hotel portfolio, same-store operating expenses decreased by $1.4 million. Operating margins for the same-store
commercial properties increase to 47 percent from 20 percent in 2006 due to increased occupancy and operating efficiencies.

Operating expenses in the land
portfolio declined $200,000 due primarily to lower property tax expense on certain of the Companys parcels located within its Mercer Crossing development in Dallas.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.2 million, to $7.3 million
in 2007 from $6.1 million in 2006, due primarily to 2007 depreciation on acquisitions ($700,000) and depreciation on newly-developed apartment projects ($500,000).

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses increased $1.8 million due to increased legal and other consulting
fees.

Advisory fee to affiliate

Advisory fees
paid to Prime increased $800,000 due to higher average total assets in the third quarter of 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006. Under the terms of the advisory agreement between Prime and ARI, Prime earns an annual advisory fee equal to
0.75 percent of average total assets.

Interest income

Interest income increased $150,000 due to an increase in interest bearing notes from prior period.

Other income

Other income increased $3.0 million due principally to higher balances on variable-rate interest-bearing advances to affiliates and increases in other investment income.

Mortgage and loan interest

Mortgage and loan
interest increased $6.7 million due to financing for 2007 acquisitions ($2.0 million), additional construction financing for residential developments ($700,000), refinancing of hotel loans ($300,000) and same-store apartment loans ($700,000), land
acquisitions and refinancing of maturing land loans ($300,000) and other ($2.7 million).

Gain on land sales

In 2007, we sold 69.2 acres of land in 11 separate transactions for sales prices totaling $14.7 million, generating $4.9 million in cash proceeds and $7.0 million in
recognized gains. The largest 2007 transactions were (a) the third quarter 2007 sale of 13.8 acres of the McKinney Ranch tract for $2.9 million, resulting in cash proceeds of $700,000 and a recognized gain of $1.1 million and
(b) the third quarter 2007 sale of the 2.7 acre West End tract for $6.5 million, resulting in cash proceeds of $1.3 million and a recognized gain of $3.8 million.

In 2006, the Company sold 15.2 acres of land in five separate transactions for sales prices totaling $8.0 million, resulting in $4.6 million of cash proceeds and $4.5 million of recognized gains.

Minority interest

Minority interest declined $400,000 due to
increased losses from certain ventures where ARI has less than 100 percent ownership.

Discontinued operations

Income from discontinued operations (before income taxes) was $5.9 million in 2007, representing $7.1 million in gains on sales of income-producing properties partially
offset by $1.2 million in operating losses. In 2007, we sold (a) an office building in Richmond, Virginia for $9.3 million, generating $3.1 million in cash proceeds and a recognized gain of $3.4 million and (b) an apartment community in
Texas City, Texas for $3.7 million, generating $800,000 of cash and a recognized

gain of $1.0 million. In addition, the Company recognized previously deferred gains in the amount of $5.5 million related to the June 2007 sale of an office
building located in Durham, North Carolina. The $1.2 million in operating losses represents activity for four apartment properties held for sale (one of which was sold in October 2007), one apartment property sold in August 2007 and one office
building sold in July 2007.

Income from discontinued operations (before income taxes) was $2.2 million for the same period in 2006, representing $2.7
million in gains on sales of income-producing properties partially offset by $500,000 in operating losses. In 2006, we sold two apartment communities for sales prices totaling $6.1 million, generating $1.2 million in cash proceeds and $2.8 million
in recognized gains. The $500,000 in operating losses represents activity for four apartments held for sale (one of which was sold in October 2007), two apartments sold in the third quarter of 2006, one apartment property sold in January 2007 and
two apartment properties and one office building sold in the third quarter of 2007.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007:

We reported a net loss applicable to common shares of ($35.6) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 including income from
discontinued operations (before income tax) of $6.2 million and gain on land sales of $11.7 million, as compared to a net loss of ($14.0) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 including income from discontinued operations of $4.4
million and gain on land sales of $17.9 million. We define our same-store universe for each income producing asset type (apartments, commercial properties and hotels) as properties with stabilized occupancy owned and operated since July 1,
2006. For this time period, we had 65 apartments, 24 commercial and 9 hotels in its same store universe.

Rental and other property revenues

Rental and other property revenues increased by $24.3 million or 19 percent from the prior period in 2006. This is due to an increase in the apartment
portfolio of $7.2 million, an increase in commercial portfolio of $13.4 million, an increase in hotel portfolio of $4.3 million, offset by a loss in the land portfolio of ($100,000) and a loss in all other of ($500,000).

Within the apartment portfolio, same-store rental revenues increased $2.4 million or 4 percent over the same period in 2006. Average overall occupancy for the same-store
apartment portfolio was 94 percent in 2007 and 2006. The May acquisition of a single apartment community in Midland, Texas represented $255,000 increase, and the development of new properties increase revenues by $4.5 million from the prior period
in 2006. In 2007, nine newly developed properties generated rental revenues of $6.0 million as compared to five newly developed properties generating rental revenues of $1.5 million in 2006. Average occupancy for the newly developed properties was
68 percent in 2007 as compared to 37 percent in 2006.

Within the commercial portfolio, same store rental revenues declined ($3.7) million, from $40.5
million in 2006 to $36.8 million in 2007. The decline was primarily due to $2.3 million decline at 600 Las Colinas Boulevard, Dallas, Texas., a $1.2 million combined decrease at the Companys New Orleans office buildings, a $500,000 decline at
a Fort Worth industrial property and a $300,000 decline at a Colorado Springs office building, offset by increases at two other Dallas office buildings of $1.2 million, a shopping center in Denver of $200,000, and at a shopping center in Indiana of
$200,000. Occupancy at 600 Las Colinas Boulevard declined from 87 percent at September 30, 2006 to 75 percent at September 30, 2007 due primarily to the June 2007 move out of a 127,000 square foot tenant and a decrease in operating cost
recoveries in 2007 as compared to 2006. Occupancy for the same store New Orleans office buildings was 58 percent at September 30, 2006 compared to 21 percent at September 30, 2007. Increases in rental revenues of $17.1 million from
acquired properties, particularly the January 2007 acquisition of the Park West I and Park West II office projects, subsequently renamed Browning Place and Fenton Centre, respectively, offset the same-store declines.

Rental revenues within our same store domestic US hotels increased by $4.3 million or 20 percent. Akademias average occupancy in 2007 was 81 percent as compared to
78 percent in 2006; average nightly rates increased to $102 in 2007 from $79 in 2006. Occupancies within our eight domestic hotels, three located in Chicago, increased from an average of 59 percent for the third quarter in 2006 to an average of 61
percent for the same period in 2007. Average nightly rental rates for the Chicago hotels increased from $171 in 2006 to $177 in 2007; occupancies for the four California hotels, decreased from an average of 62 percent for the third quarter in 2006
to an average of 61 percent for the same period in 2007. Average nightly rental rates for the California hotels increased from $86 in 2006 to $89 in 2007; one hotel located in Denver, increased from an average of 59 percent for the third quarter in
2006 to an average of 64 percent for the same period in 2007. Average nightly rental rates for the Denver hotel increased from $69 in 2006 to $75 in 2007.

Rents and royalty revenues from our land portfolio were consistent from the same period in 2006.

Property operating expenses

Property operating expenses increased to $95.1 million in 2007 compared $81.2 million in 2006 due to a $7.9 million increase in the commercial portfolio, a $3.9 million increase in the apartment portfolio, a $100,000
increase in the hotel portfolio, a $300,000 increase in land-related operating expenses and a $1.7 million increase in other property operating expenses.

Operating expenses for the same-store commercial portfolio increased $400,000 due primarily to higher utility costs. Operating margins for the same-store commercial properties declined to 34 percent in 2007 from 42 percent in 2006, due
principally to lower occupancy. Overall, the same-store commercial portfolio was 78 percent occupied at September 30, 2007 compared to 83 percent at the same time in 2006. Our acquisition portfolio of six properties was 83 percent occupied at
September 30, 2007 as compared to 33 percent in 2006; properties acquired in 2007 accounted for $7.4 million of the increase in commercial property operating expenses.

Within the apartment portfolio, same-store property operating expenses increased by $1.6 million acquisitions increased $100,000 and newly-developed properties increased 2.1 million. Operating margins in the
same-store universe remained relatively constant at 44 percent in 2007 and 2006.

Operating expenses at the Companys Poland hotel increased $1.8
million due to increased labor and repair costs but were offset by $1.7 million in cost savings at our domestic hotels.

Operating expenses in the land
portfolio increased $400,000 due primarily to higher property tax expense on certain of the Companys land parcels.

Depreciation and
amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $3.4 million, from $17.6 million in 2006 to $20.9 million in 2007, due primarily to
2007 depreciation on acquisitions of $2.3 million, depreciation on newly-developed apartment projects of $600,000 and additional depreciation on same-store of $500,000.

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses increased $4.2 million due to increased legal
and litigation-related costs ($2.6 million), increased consulting and other professional fees ($200,000), increased taxes and licenses ($200,000), higher cost reimbursements paid to Prime ($200,000), increased communications and office support costs
($400,000), increased fees associated with certain stock repurchases ($200,000) and miscellaneous charge-offs ($300,000).

Advisory fee to affiliate

Advisory fees paid to Prime increased $1.6 million due to higher average total assets for 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006. Under the
terms of the advisory agreement between Prime and ARI, Prime earns an annual advisory fee equal to 0.75 percent of average total assets.

Interest
income

Interest income declined $111,000 due primarily to lower average balances in interest-bearing notes receivable in 2007 as compared to the
same period in 2006.

Other income

Other income
increased $3.1 million due principally to higher balances on variable-rate interest-bearing advances to affiliates and increases in other investment income.

Net income fee to affiliate

Net income fees expense declined $705,000 due to recording the 2006 overpayment of fees in 2007.

Mortgage and loan interest

Mortgage and loan
interest increased $20.8 million due to financing for 2007 acquisitions of income-producing properties ($4.8 million); additional construction financing for residential developments ($2.5 million); refinancing of loans within the same-store
apartment portfolio ($7.5 million), land acquisitions and refinancing of maturing land loans ($4.0 million) and other ($2.0 million).

Gain on land
sales

In 2007, we sold 194.3 acres of land in 16 separate transactions for sales prices totaling $27.1 million, generating $7.4 million in cash
proceeds and $11.7 million in recognized gains. The largest 2007 transactions were the (a) August 2007 sale of 13.8 acres of the McKinney Ranch tract for $2.9 million, resulting in cash proceeds of $700,000 and a recognized gain of

(e) March 2007 sale of 22.4 acres of the Metro Center tract for $3.9 million, generating $700,000 in proceeds, and recognized a $2.7 million
gain. In the second quarter of 2007, TCI exchanged 82.2 acres of the Denton Coonrod tract (located in Denton, Texas) with an affiliated company, acquiring an apartment property in Midland, Texas as well as a note receivable from the
affiliate in the amount of $1.6 million. The loan bears interest at the rate of 9 percent per annum and is due on demand. No gain or loss was recognized on the exchange.

In 2006, the Company sold 253.6 acres of land in 14 separate transactions for sales prices totaling $48.9 million, resulting in $20.8 million of cash proceeds and $17.9 million of recognized gains. The largest 2006

Ranch tract for $10.3 million, generating $10.0 million in cash proceeds and a recognized gain of $5.3 million.

Minority interest

Minority interest expense decreased $370,000 due to losses from certain ventures where ARI has less than 100 percent ownership.

Discontinued operations

Income from discontinued operations
(before income taxes) was $6.2 million in 2007, representing $10.7 million in gains on sales of income-producing properties partially offset by $4.5 million in operating losses. In 2007, we sold (a) an apartment community in Lewisville, Texas
for $24.6 million, resulting in $3.1 million in cash proceeds and a recognized gain of $3.7 million; (b) an office building in Richmond, Virginia for $9.3 million, generating $3.1 million in cash proceeds and a recognized gain of $3.4 million
and (c) an apartment community in Texas City, Texas for $3.7 million, resulting in $800,000 of cash proceeds and a recognized gain of $1.0 million; (d) commercial building in Durham, North Carolina for $19.2 million, resulting in $3.4
million in cash proceeds and a recognized gain of $3.1 million; (e) an apartment in San Antonio, Texas for $4.1 million, resulting in $1.0 million in cash proceeds and a recognized gain of $740,000. The $4.5 million in operating losses
represents activity for three apartment properties and two commercial properties held for sale (one of which was sold in October 2007), one apartment property sold in January 2007, one apartment property sold in August 2007 and one office building
sold in July 2007.

Income from discontinued operations (before income taxes) was $4.4 million for the same period in 2006, representing $6.2 million in
gains on sales of income-producing properties partially offset by $2.0 million in operating losses. In 2006, we sold four apartment communities for sales prices totaling $15.3 million, generating $4.6 million in cash proceeds and $6.3 million in
recognized gains. The $2.0 million in operating losses represents activity for four apartments held for sale (one of which was sold in October 2007), two apartments sold in the third quarter of 2006, one apartment property sold in January 2007 and
two apartment properties and one office building sold in the third quarter of 2007.

Tax Matters

Financial statement income varies from taxable income principally due to the accounting for income and losses of investees, gains and losses from asset sales,
depreciation on owned properties, amortization of discounts on notes receivable and payable and the difference in the allowance for estimated losses. ARI had a loss for federal income tax purposes in the first nine months of 2007 and a loss in the
first nine months of 2006, after the use of net operating loss carryforwards; therefore, it recorded no provision for income taxes.

At September 30, 2007,
ARI had a net deferred tax asset of $125.6 million due to tax deductions available to it in future years. However, as management cannot determine that it is more likely than not that ARI will realize the benefit of the deferred tax assets, a 100%
valuation allowance has been established.

Inflation

The effects of inflation on ARIs operations are not quantifiable. Revenues from property operations tend to fluctuate proportionately with inflationary increases and decreases in housing costs. Fluctuations in the rate of inflation
also affect the sales values of properties and the ultimate gains to be realized from property sales. To the extent that inflation affects interest rates, earnings from short-term investments and the cost of new financings as well as the cost of
variable interest rate debt will be affected.

Environmental Matters

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, ARI may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or
toxic substances (including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property) where property-level managers have arranged for the removal, disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, certain environmental laws impose
liability for release of asbestos-containing materials into the air and third parties may seek recovery for personal injury associated with such materials.

Management is not aware of any environmental liability relating to the above matters that would have a material adverse
effect on ARIs business, assets or results of operations.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION



|ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
|------- | -----------------

During the period covered by this Report,
effective September 18, 2007, three separate but recently consolidated legal proceedings were resolved between Sunset Management LLC (Sunset) and the Registrant and/or Basic Capital Management, Inc. (BCM) over pledges as
collateral for certain loans of a number of shares of Common Stock of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (TCI). The three cases which have continued for some time were all pending in the United States District Court, Eastern
District of Texas, Sherman Division under master case No. 4:06-CV-00018 (collectively the Sunset Litigation). On September 18, 2007, the various parties to the Sunset Litigation entered into a Forbearance and Settlement
Agreement, which resolved the Sunset Litigation. The Forbearance and Settlement Agreement contains an allocation of the funds to be paid with a repayment of principal ($15,000,000) and a balance to interest and fees and various categories. The
Registrants portion of the principal amount is $5,000,000. Under the terms of the Forbearance and Settlement Agreement, the Registrant and others have the opportunity to satisfy by different alternatives, amounts due to Sunset under the
Settlement Agreement which are secured by a continued pledge in favor of Sunset of certain shares of the issued and outstanding stock of TCI. All scheduled payments due to Sunset under the Settlement Agreement have been timely made through
October 31, 2007 and no additional payments are due to Sunset until January 2008. The Forbearance and Settlement Agreement brings to an end litigation among the parties which existed for almost the last five years, fixes as a certainty the
amount of indebtedness to Sunset and provides a payout method for such indebtedness. Registrant filed a Form 8-K Current Report for event reported September 18, 2007 covering Item 8.01 with respect to such Forbearance and Settlement
Agreement.
