DUKE REALTY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. General Basis of Presentation
The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Duke Realty Corporation (the Company) without audit (except for the Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2006). The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included herein and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Our Rental Operations (see Note 7) are conducted through Duke Realty Limited Partnership (DRLP). Approximately 94.4% of the common partnership interests of DRLP (Units) were owned by us at September 30, 2007. The remaining Units are redeemable for shares of our common stock on a one-to-one basis. We conduct our Service Operations (see Note 7) through Duke Realty Services LLC and Duke Realty Services Limited Partnership, and we are the sole general partner of both of those entities. We also conduct Service Operations through Duke Construction Limited Partnership, which is effectively 100% owned by DRLP. The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and our majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this Report), unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms we, us and our refer to the Company and those entities owned or controlled by the Company.
2. Reclassifications
Certain 2006 balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2007 presentation.
3. Acquisitions
In February 2007, we completed the acquisition of Bremner Healthcare Real Estate (Bremner), a national health care development and management firm. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand our development capabilities within the health care real estate market.
The initial consideration paid to the sellers totaled $47.1 million, and the sellers may be eligible for further contingent payments over the next three years.
Approximately $39.1 million of the total purchase price was allocated to goodwill, which is attributable to the value of Bremners overall development capabilities and its in-place workforce. The results of operations for Bremner since the date of acquisition have been included in continuing operations in our consolidated financial statements.

4. Indebtedness
We had one unsecured line of credit available as of September 30, 2007. Additionally, in July 2007, one of our consolidated majority owned subsidiaries entered into a lending agreement that included an additional unsecured line of credit. Our unsecured lines of credit as of September 30, 2007 are described as follows (dollars in thousands):

|
We use our line of credit to fund development activities, acquire additional rental properties and provide working capital. This line of credit provides us with an option to obtain borrowings from financial institutions that participate in the line, at rates lower than the stated interest rate, subject to certain restrictions. Interest rates on the amounts outstanding on the unsecured line of credit as of September 30, 2007 range from LIBOR +.16% to LIBOR +.525% (equal to 5.29% and 5.655% as of September 30, 2007). Our line of credit also contains financial covenants that require us to meet financial ratios and defined levels of performance, including those related to variable rate indebtedness, consolidated net worth and debt-to-market capitalization. As of September 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all covenants under our line of credit.
The consolidated subsidiarys unsecured line of credit allows for borrowings up to $30.0 million at a rate of LIBOR + .85%. (equal to 6.04% as of September 30, 2007). The unsecured line of credit is used to fund development activities within the consolidated subsidiary. The consolidated subsidiarys unsecured line of credit matures on July 27, 2011 with a 12-month extension option.
In August 2007, we repaid $100.0 million of 7.375% senior unsecured notes on their scheduled maturity date.
In September 2007, we issued $300.0 million of 6.50% senior unsecured notes due in January 2018. This issuance was hedged with an interest rate swap (Note 9) that reduced the effective interest rate to 6.16%. The net proceeds from that issuance were used to partially pay down the outstanding balance on our $1.0 billion unsecured line of credit.
5. Related Party Transactions
We provide property management, leasing, construction and other tenant related services to unconsolidated companies in which we have equity interests. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, we received management fees of $5.1 million and $3.3 million, leasing fees of $2.7 million and $2.2 million and construction and development fees of $9.0 million and $16.8 million, respectively, from these companies. These fees approximate market rates for these types of services, and we have eliminated our ownership percentage of these fees in the consolidated financial statements.
6. Net Income Per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available for common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing the sum of net income available for common shareholders and the minority interest in earnings allocable to Units not owned by us, by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and minority Units outstanding, including any potential dilutive common equivalents for the period.

(2) One of our joint venture partners in one of our unconsolidated companies has the option to convert a portion of its ownership in the joint venture to common shares. The effect of this option on earnings per share is dilutive for the third quarter 2006; therefore, conversion to common shares is included in weighted average potential dilutive common equivalents for the quarter.
7. Segment Reporting
We are engaged in three reportable operating segments, the first two of which consist of the ownership and rental of office and industrial real estate investments (collectively, Rental Operations). The third reportable segment consists of our build-to-suit for sale operations and providing of various real estate services such as property management, maintenance, leasing, development and construction management to third-party property owners and joint ventures (Service Operations). Our reportable segments offer different products or services and are managed separately because each segment requires different operating strategies and management expertise.
The assets of the Service Operations business segment generally include properties under development. During the period between the completion of development, rehabilitation or repositioning of a Service Operations property and the date the property is contributed to a property fund or sold to a third party, the property and its associated rental income and rental expenses are included in the applicable Rental Operations segment because the primary activity associated with the Service Operations property during that period is rental activities. Upon contribution or sale, the resulting gain or loss is part of the income of the Service Operations business segment.
Non-segment revenue consists mainly of equity in earnings of unconsolidated companies and other insignificant rental operations such as retail and medical office properties. Segment FFO information (FFO is defined below) is calculated by subtracting operating expenses attributable to the applicable segment from segment revenues. Non-segment assets consist of corporate assets, including cash, deferred financing costs and investments in unconsolidated companies. Interest expense and other non-property specific revenues and expenses are not allocated to individual segments in determining our performance measure.
8
We assess and measure segment operating results based upon an industry performance measure referred to as Funds From Operations (FFO), which management believes is a useful indicator of our operating performance. FFO is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental operating performance measure of an equity real estate investment trust (REIT) like Duke. FFO is calculated in accordance with the definition that was adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from net income determined in accordance with GAAP. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure developed by NAREIT to compare the operating performance of REITs. The most comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). FFO should not be considered as a substitute for net income or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry analysts and investors have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents GAAP net income (loss), excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization, and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Management believes that the use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and makes comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management believes FFO is a useful measure for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance (although FFO should be reviewed in conjunction with net income which remains the primary measure of performance) because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO provides a useful comparison of the operating performance of our real estate between periods or as compared to different companies.

8. Discontinued Operations
We classified the operations of 67 buildings as discontinued operations as of September 30, 2007. These 67 buildings consist of 32 industrial and 35 office properties. Of these properties, 30 were sold during the first nine months of 2007, 21 were sold during 2006 and 16 operating properties are classified as held-for-sale at September 30, 2007.
The following table illustrates the operations of the buildings reflected in discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively (in thousands):

At September 30, 2007, we classified 16 properties as held-for-sale and included in discontinued operations. Additionally, we have classified 13 in-service properties as held-for-sale, but have included the results of operations of these properties in continuing operations, either based on our present intention to sell the majority of our ownership interest in the properties to entities in which we will retain a minority equity ownership interest or because the results of operations for the properties are immaterial. The following table illustrates the aggregate balance sheet of the aforementioned properties included in discontinued operations, as well as the 13 held-for-sale properties whose results are included in continuing operations, at September 30, 2007 (in thousands):

We allocate interest expense to discontinued operations and have included such interest expense in computing net income from discontinued operations. Interest expense allocable to discontinued operations includes interest on any debt on secured properties included in discontinued operations and an allocable share of our consolidated unsecured interest expense for unencumbered properties. The allocation of unsecured interest expense to discontinued operations was based upon the gross book value of the discontinued operations unencumbered population as it related to our entire unencumbered population.
9. Financial Instruments
We are exposed to capital market risk, such as changes in interest rates. In order to reduce the volatility relating to interest rate risk, we may enter into interest rate hedging arrangements from time to time. We do not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
In August 2005, we entered into $300.0 million of cash flow hedges through forward-starting interest rate swaps to hedge interest rates on $300.0 million of estimated debt offerings in 2007. The swaps qualified for hedge accounting, with any change in fair value recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). In conjunction with the September 2007 issuance of $300.0 million of senior unsecured notes (Note 4), we terminated these cash flow hedges as designated. The settlement amount received of $10.7 million will be recognized to earnings through interest expense over the term of the hedged cash flows. The ineffective portion of the hedge was insignificant.
In July 2007, we entered into a $21.0 million cash flow hedge through an interest rate swap to fix the rate on $21.0 million of floating rate term debt, issued by one of our consolidated majority owned subsidiaries, which matures in July 2011. The swap qualifies for hedge accounting, with any changes in fair value recorded in OCI. At September 30, 2007 the fair value of this swap was approximately $585,000 in a liability position.
The effectiveness of our hedges will be evaluated throughout their lives using the hypothetical derivative method under which the change in fair value of the actual swap designated as the hedging instrument is compared to the change in fair value of a hypothetical swap.

10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 resulted in an additional tax exposure of approximately $1.7 million recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of Distributions in Excess of Net Income. Our uncertain tax positions are immaterial both individually and in the aggregate primarily due to our tax status as a REIT.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this statement.
In January 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Options for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 provides a Fair Value Option under which a company may irrevocably elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain financial assets and liabilities. This Fair Value Option will be available on a contract-by-contract basis with changes in fair value recognized in earnings as those changes occur. The effective date for SFAS 159 is the beginning of each reporting entitys first fiscal year end that begins after November 15, 2007. We do not expect to elect the Fair Value Option for any of our financial assets or liabilities.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this Report, including, without limitation, those related to our future operations, constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The words believe, estimate, expect, anticipate, intend, plan, seek, may, and similar expressions or statements regarding future periods are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to differ materially from any predictions of future results, performance or achievements that we express or imply in this Report. Some of the risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may affect future results include, among others:
Changes in general economic and business conditions, including the performance of financial markets;
Our continued qualification as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
Heightened competition for tenants and potential decreases in property occupancy;
Potential increases in real estate construction costs;
Potential changes in the financial markets and interest rates;
Our continuing ability to raise funds on favorable terms through the issuance of debt and equity in the capital markets;
Our ability to successfully identify, acquire, develop and/or manage properties on terms that are favorable to us;
Our ability to successfully dispose of properties on terms that are favorable to us;
Inherent risks in the real estate business, including, but not limited to, tenant defaults, potential liability relating to environmental matters and liquidity of real estate investments; and
Other risks and uncertainties described herein, as well as those risks and uncertainties discussed from time to time in our other reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
This list of risks and uncertainties, however, is only a summary of some of the most important factors and is not intended to be exhaustive. Additional information regarding risk factors that may affect us is included under the caption Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, which we filed with the SEC on March 1, 2007, and is updated by us from time to time in Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other public filings.
Although we presently believe that the plans, expectations and results expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements are reasonable, all forward-looking statements are inherently subjective, uncertain and subject to change, as they involve substantial risks and uncertainties beyond our control. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict the nature, or assess the potential impact, of each new factor on our business. Given these uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any of our forward-looking statements for events or circumstances that arise after the statement is made, except as otherwise may be required by law.

Business Overview
We are a self-administered and self-managed REIT that began operations through a related entity in 1972. As of September 30, 2007, we:
Owned or jointly controlled 723 industrial, office and retail properties (including properties under development), consisting of approximately 119.8 million square feet; and
Owned or jointly controlled more than 7,600 acres of land with an estimated future development potential of more than 112 million square feet of industrial, office and retail properties.
We provide the following services for our properties and for certain properties owned by third parties and joint ventures:
Property leasing;
Property management;
Construction;
Development; and
Other tenant-related services.
Acquisitions
In February 2007, we completed the acquisition of Bremner Healthcare Real Estate (Bremner), a national health care development and management firm. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand our development capabilities within the health care real estate market.
The initial consideration paid to the sellers totaled $47.1 million, and the sellers may be eligible for further contingent payments over the next three years.
Approximately $39.1 million of the total purchase price is allocated to goodwill, which is attributable to the value of Bremners overall development capabilities and its in-place workforce.
Key Performance Indicators
Our operating results depend primarily upon rental income from our office and industrial properties (Rental Operations). The following highlights the areas of Rental Operations that we consider critical for future revenue growth. All square footage totals and occupancy percentages reflect both wholly owned properties and properties in joint ventures.
Occupancy Analysis: Our ability to maintain favorable occupancy rates is a principal driver of our results of operations. The following table sets forth occupancy information regarding our in-service portfolio of rental properties (excluding in-service properties developed or acquired with the intent to sell Service Operations Buildings) as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively (in thousands, except percentage data):

This compares to renewals of 79.6% and 78.9% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, totaling approximately 1.9 million and 5.7 million square feet, respectively. We attained 7.6% and 5.3% growth in net effective rents on these renewals in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively.
The average term of renewals for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was 3.0 and 3.9 years, respectively, compared to an average term of 4.7 and 3.9 years for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively.
Future Development: Another source of growth in earnings is the development of additional properties. These properties should provide future earnings through income upon sale or from Rental Operations growth as they are placed in service. We had 16.6 million square feet of property under development with total estimated costs of $1.3 billion at September 30, 2007, compared to 11.4 million square feet with total estimated costs of $1.1 billion at September 30, 2006.

Acquisition and Disposition Activity: We continued to selectively dispose of non-strategic properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Gross sales proceeds related to the dispositions of wholly owned held-for-rental properties were $317.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, which included the disposition of a portfolio of eight office properties in the Cleveland market and a portfolio of twelve industrial properties in the St. Louis market. Our share of proceeds from sales of properties within unconsolidated joint ventures, in which we have a less than 100% interest, totaled $13.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, proceeds totaled $126.5 million for the disposition of wholly owned held-for-rental properties and $72.6 million for our share of property sales from unconsolidated joint ventures. Dispositions of wholly owned properties developed for sale rather than rental resulted in $85.0 million in proceeds for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $39.0 million for the same period in 2006.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, in addition to the acquisition of Bremner, we acquired $47.4 million of income producing properties and also acquired $156.8 million of undeveloped land, compared to acquisitions of $963.9 million of income producing properties and $366.2 million of undeveloped land in the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
Funds From Operations
Funds From Operations (FFO) is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental operating performance measure of an equity REIT like Duke. FFO is calculated in accordance with the definition that was adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from net income determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure developed by NAREIT to compare the operating performance of REITs. The most comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). FFO should not be considered as a substitute for net income or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measure of other companies.
17
Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry analysts and investors have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents GAAP net income (loss), excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus certain non-cash items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Management believes that the use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and makes comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management believes FFO is a useful measure for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance (although FFO should be reviewed in conjunction with net income which remains the primary measure of performance) because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO provides a useful comparison of the operating performance of our real estate between periods or as compared to different companies.
