                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. Dollar amounts in tables are in thousands, except per share amounts.
Certain balances for 2001 have been reclassified to conform to the 2002
presentation.

Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2002, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2002. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial
Statements and Notes thereto included in ARI's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2001 (the "2001 Form 10-K").

On January 1, 2002, ARI adopted Statement 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS No. 144"). The Statement superceded
Statement 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" ("SFAS No. 121") and Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the
Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and
Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions" ("APB 30"), for segments of a
business to be disposed of. SFAS 144 retains the requirements of SFAS No. 121
relating to the recognition and measurement of an impairment loss and resolves
certain implementation issues resulting from SFAS No. 121. The adoption of SFAS
No. 144 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or
results of operations of ARI.

The financial statements and accompanying footnotes have been amended to revise
the presentation of discontinued operations, pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 144. The revision had no impact on the net income
(loss) for the periods reported.

In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No.
4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Correction"
("SFAS No. 145"). Statement 4, "Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment
of Debt" ("SFAS No. 4"), required that gains and losses from the extinguishment
of debt that were included in the determination of net income be aggregated and,
if material, classified as an extraordinary item. The provisions of SFAS No. 145
related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 become effective in fiscal years
beginning after May 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 145 will not have a
material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations
of ARI.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities," which addresses accounting for restructuring
and similar costs. SFAS No. 146 supersedes previous

                                       9

accounting guidance, principally Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No.
94-3. ARI will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 146 for restructuring activities
initiated after December 31, 2002. SFAS No. 146 requires that the liability for
costs associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the
liability is incurred. Under EITF No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost was
recognized at the date of a company's commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146
also establishes that the liability should initially be measured and recorded at
fair value. Accordingly, SFAS No. 146 may affect the timing of recognizing
future restructuring costs as well as the amount recognized.

Related Party. In June 2002, ARI converted $4.5 million of its receivable from
BCM, a related party, to a recourse note receivable. The note bears interest at
10.0% per annum, matures in March 2004 and requires quarterly payments of
principal and accrued interest. The first payment is due in December 2002.

In March 2001, ARI funded $13.6 million of a $15.0 million unsecured line of
credit to One Realco Corporation ("One Realco"), which owns approximately 14.7%
of the outstanding shares of ARI's Common Stock. The line of credit bears

2001, $21,000 in principal and $804,000 in interest was collected. In February
2002, the line of credit was increased to $18.0 million, accrued but unpaid
interest of $217,000 was added to the principal and the maturity date was
extended to February 2004. In March 2002, ARI funded an additional $1.8 million,
increasing the outstanding principal balance to $15.0 million. All principal and
interest are due at maturity. Ronald E. Kimbrough, Executive Vice President and

May 2002. Monthly principal payments of $25,000 were required. The Working
Interests were purchased for $4.3 million, with $125,000 cash paid at closing.
ARI gave a note payable for $250,000. The note bore no interest, and matured in

from the oil and gas operations. The stock had a liquidation value of $1,000 per
share, and paid no dividends.

from the buyer for the purchase price. The note bears interest at 10.0% per
annum, matures in May 2004 and requires monthly payments of principal and
accrued interest. As part of the sale, the notes payable given by ARI for the
purchase of the Operator's Interest ($350,000) and the Working Interests
($250,000) were canceled. The 3,968.75 shares of ARI Series F Preferred Stock
were also returned to ARI and canceled.

NOTE 5.  INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY INVESTEES

Real estate entities. ARI's investment in real estate entities at June 30, 2002,
included equity securities of two publicly traded real estate companies, Income
Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. ("IORI") and TCI, and interests in real
estate joint venture partnerships. BCM, ARI's advisor, serves as advisor to IORI
and TCI.

ARI accounts for its investment in IORI and TCI and the joint venture
partnerships using the equity method. The equity securities of IORI and TCI are
pledged as collateral for borrowings. See NOTE 8. "MARGIN BORROWINGS."

ARI's investment in real estate entities, accounted for using the equity method,
at June 30, 2002 was as follows:

Management continues to believe that the market value of both IORI and TCI
undervalues their assets, and, therefore, ARI may continue to increase its
ownership in these entities in 2002, as its liquidity

permits. On October 3, 2000, ARI and IORI entered into a stock option agreement
which provided IORI and ARI with an option to purchase 1,858,900 shares of TCI
common stock from a third party. On October 19, 2000, IORI assigned all of its
rights to purchase such shares to ARI. The total cost to purchase the TCI shares
was $30.8 million. In October 2000, ARI paid $5.6 million of the option price.
In April 2001, the remainder of the option price was paid and ARI acquired the
TCI shares. See ITEM 2. "MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS" for discussion of the proposed acquisition
of TCI and IORI by ARI.

Set forth below are summarized results of operations of equity investees for the
six months ended June 30, 2002:

ARI's share of equity investees' loss before gains on the sale of real estate
was $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, and its share of equity
investees' gains on sale of real estate was $8.3 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2002.

ARI's cash flow from IORI and TCI is dependent on the ability of each entity to
make distributions. In the fourth quarter of 2000, IORI and TCI suspended
distributions.

Realty Advisors - Korea. In June 2002, ARI acquired Realty Advisors - Korea from
BCM, a related party, for $6.0 million. ARI's receivable from BCM was reduced by
$6.0 million, and no cash was paid by ARI.

ART Florida Portfolio II, Ltd. In January 2002, Investors Choice Florida Public
Funds II, in which ART Florida Portfolio II, Ltd. owned an interest, sold Villas
Continental Apartments. ARI received $1.0 million in cash from the sale. ARI's
share of the loss incurred on the sale was $531,000, which is included in loss
on sale of investments in equity investees in the accompanying Consolidated
Statements of Operations.

NOTE 6.  MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES - TRADING PORTFOLIO

Since 1994, ARI has been purchasing equity securities of entities other than
those of IORI and TCI to diversify and increase the liquidity of

its margin accounts. These equity securities are considered a trading portfolio
and are carried at market value. In the first six months of 2002, ARI did not
purchase or sell any such securities. At June 30, 2002, ARI recognized an
unrealized decrease in the market value of its trading portfolio securities of
$7,000. Unrealized and realized gains and losses on trading portfolio securities
are included in other income in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of
Operations.

(6)  Properties sold to partnerships controlled by Metra Capital, LLC ("Metra").
     Innovo Group, Inc. ("Innovo") is a limited partner in the partnerships that
     purchased the properties. Joseph Mizrachi, a Director of ARI, controls
     approximately 11.67% of the outstanding common stock of Innovo. Management
     has determined to treat this sale as a refinancing transaction. ARI will
     continue to report the assets and the new debt incurred by Metra on its
     financial statements. ARI also received $6.3 million of 8% non-recourse,
     non-convertible Series A Preferred Stock ("Preferred Shares") of Innovo.

     The dividend on the Preferred Shares will be funded entirely and solely
     through member distributions from cash flows generated by the operation and
     subsequent sale of the sold properties. In the event the cash flows for the
     properties are insufficient to cover the 8% annual dividend, Innovo will
     have no obligation to cover any shortfall.

     The Preferred Shares have a mandatory redemption feature, and are
     redeemable from the cash proceeds received by Innovo from the operation and
     sale of the properties. All member distributions that are in excess of
     current and accrued 8% dividends must be used by Innovo to redeem the
     Preferred Shares. Since redemption of these shares is subject to the above
     future events, management has elected to record no basis in the Preferred
     Shares.

(2) Variable interest rate.

In August 2002, the lender on one of ARI's hotel properties notified ARI that
ARI was in default under the provisions of the loan agreement regarding timely
payment and debt service coverage ratio. ARI is negotiating with the lender and
expects to resolve the issue.

NOTE 8. MARGIN BORROWINGS

ARI has margin arrangements with various financial institutions and brokerage
firms which provide for borrowing of up to 50% of the market value of marketable
equity securities. The borrowings under such margin arrangements are secured by
equity securities of IORI and TCI and ARI's trading portfolio securities and
bear interest rates ranging from 5.75% to 24.0%. Margin borrowing totaled $26.0
million at June 30, 2002.

In April 2000, ARI obtained a security loan in the amount of $5.0 million from a
financial institution. ARI received net cash of $4.6 million after paying
various closing costs. The loan bears interest at 1% over the prime rate,
currently 5.75% per annum, requires monthly payments of interest and matures in
September 2002. The loan is secured by 1,050,000 shares of ARI Common Stock held
by BCM, ARI's advisor.

In March 2001, ARI obtained a security loan in the amount of $3.5 million from a
financial institution. ARI received net cash of $3.5 million after paying
various closing costs. The loan bore interest at 16.0% per annum. In April and
May 2001, a total of $2.0 million in principal paydowns were made. In July 2001,
the loan was repaid in full, including accrued but unpaid interest. The loan was
secured by 472,000 shares of TCI Common Stock owned by ARI Common Stock and
128,000 shares of ARI owned by One Realco.

In September 2001, ARI obtained a security loan in the amount of $20.0 million
from a financial institution. ARI received net cash of $16.1 million after the
payment of various closing costs and $3.4 million repayment of principal and
accrued interest on an existing loan with the same lender. Of the total loan
amount, $19.5 million bears interest at 24% per annum, while the remaining
$500,000 bears interest at 20% per annum. The loan requires monthly payments of
interest only and matures in September 2002. The loan is secured by 2,602,608
shares of TCI common stock held by ARI and 920,507 shares of TCI common stock
held by BCM, ARI's advisor.

In October 2001, ARI obtained a security loan in the amount of $1.0 million from

payments of interest only and matures in October 2003. The loan is callable upon
60 days prior notice, and is secured by 200,000 shares of ARI Common Stock held
by BCM, ARI's advisor.

NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES

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 no taxable income or provision for income taxes in the six months ended
June 30, 2002 or 2001.

NOTE 10. 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 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. Items of income that are not
reflected in the segments are equity in loss of investees, equity in gain on
sale of real estate by equity investees, loss on sale of investments in equity
investees and other income which totaled $(930,000) and $(1.2) million for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and $5.8 million and $5.8 million for
2001. Expenses that are not reflected in the segments are general and
administrative expenses, minority interest, incentive fees, advisory fees, net
income fees and discontinued operations, which totaled $4.9 million and $11.3
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and $9.8 million and
$18.0 million for 2001. Excluded from operating segment assets are assets of
$122.3 million in 2002 and $122.4 million in 2001, which are not identifiable
with an operating segment. There are no intersegment revenues and expenses, and
ARI conducted all of its business within the United States, with the exception
of Hotel Sofia, which is located in Bulgaria.

Presented below are ARI's reportable segments operating income for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, and segment assets at June 30, 2002 and
2001.

NOTE 11. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Effective January 1, 2002, ARI adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets," which established a single accounting model for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets, including discontinued operations. This statement
requires that the operations related to properties that have been sold or
properties that are intended to be sold be presented as discontinued operations
in the statement of operations for all periods presented, and properties
intended to be sold are to be designated as "held-for-sale" on the balance
sheet.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, income from
discontinued operations relates to seven properties that ARI sold during the
first six months of 2002. The following table summarizes revenue and expense
information for these properties sold and held-for-sale.



                                                                   For the Three Months            For the Six Months

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued

NOTE 11. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (Continued)

Discontinued operations have not been segregated in the consolidated statements
of cash flows. Therefore, amounts for certain captions will not agree with
respective consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Liquidity. Management expects that cash generated from operations during the
remainder of 2002 will not be sufficient to discharge all of ARI's debt
obligations as they mature. Therefore, ARI will rely on aggressive land sales,
selected income producing property sales and, to the extent necessary,
additional borrowings to meet its cash requirements.

Commitments. In March 1999, ARI reached an agreement with the Class A
unitholders of Valley Ranch, L.P. to acquire their eight million Class A units
for $1.00 per unit. In 1999, three million units were purchased. Additionally,
one million units were purchased in January 2000, two million units were
purchased in May 2001 and one million units were purchased in May 2002. The
remaining one million units were purchased in August 2002.

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

NOTE 13. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES - ADOPTION OF SFAS 142

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized FASB Statement
No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141"), and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 141 requires the use of the purchase
method of accounting and prohibits the use of the pooling-of-interests method of
accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 141
also requires that ARI recognize acquired intangible assets apart from goodwill
if the acquired intangible assets meet certain criteria. SFAS 141 applies to all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. It also requires, upon
adoption of SFAS 142, that ARI reclassify the carrying amounts of intangible
assets and goodwill based on the criteria in SFAS 141.

SFAS 142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortize
goodwill, but instead test goodwill for impairment at least annually. In
addition, SFAS 142 requires that ARI identify reporting units in order to assess
potential future impairment of goodwill, reassess the useful lives of other
existing recognized intangible assets, and cease amortization of intangible
assets with an indefinite useful life. SFAS 142 requires that an intangible
asset with an indefinite useful life be tested for impairment in accordance with
specified guidelines. SFAS 142 is required to be applied in fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001 to all goodwill and other intangible assets
recognized at that date, regardless of when those assets were initially
recognized. SFAS

NOTE 13.  GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES - ADOPTION OF SFAS 142 (Continued)

142 required ARI to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months
from the date of adoption. ARI was also required to reassess the useful lives of
other intangible assets within the first interim quarter after adoption of SFAS
142.

The adoption of SFAS 141 did not have a material impact on ARI's results of
operations and financial position. ARI adopted SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002, and
accordingly ceased amortizing costs in excess of net assets acquired. In
connection with the adoption of SFAS 142, ARI completed the first step of the
goodwill impairment test during the quarter ended June 30, 2002. Based on the
results of this step, ARI believes that the fair value of its reporting unit
that carries goodwill exceeds its carrying amount. As the result of the first
step of the goodwill impairment test indicates that goodwill is not impaired,
the second step of the goodwill impairment test is not necessary.

Transitional Disclosures. Net income (loss) applicable to Common shares and
earnings per share, including the after-tax effect of amortization expense
related to costs in excess of net assets acquired for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 and the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and
1999 are as follows:

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

Introduction

ARI's predecessor was organized in 1961 to provide investors with a
professionally managed, diversified portfolio of equity real estate and mortgage
loan investments selected to provide opportunities for capital appreciation as
well as current income.

On October 23, 2001, ARI, TCI, and IORI jointly announced a preliminary
agreement with the plaintiff's legal counsel of the derivative action entitled
Olive et al. V. National Income Realty Trust, et al. for complete settlement of
all disputes in the lawsuit. In February 2002, the court granted final approval
of the proposed settlement. Under the proposal, ARI will acquire all of the
outstanding common shares of IORI and TCI not currently owned by ARI for a cash
payment or shares of ARI preferred stock. ARI will pay $17.50 cash per TCI share
and $19.00 cash per IORI share for the stock held by non-affiliated
stockholders. ARI will issue one share of Series G Preferred Stock with a
liquidation value of $20.00 per share for each share of TCI Common Stock for
stockholders who affirmatively elect to receive ARI Preferred Stock in lieu of
cash. ARI will issue one share of Series H Preferred Stock with a liquidation
value of $21.50 per share for each share of IORI Common Stock for stockholders
who affirmatively elect to receive ARI Preferred Stock in lieu of cash. All
affiliated stockholders will receive ARI Preferred Stock. Each share of Series G
Preferred Stock will be convertible into 2.5 shares of ARI Common Stock, and
each share of Series H Preferred Stock will be convertible into 2.25 shares of
ARI Common Stock during a 75-day period that commences fifteen days after the
date of the first ARI Form 10-Q filing that occurs after the closing of the
merger transaction. Upon the acquisition of IORI and TCI shares, TCI and IORI
would become wholly-owned subsidiaries of ARI. The transaction is subject to the
negotiation of a definitive merger agreement and a vote of the shareholders of
all three entities. ARI has the same advisor as TCI and IORI, and TCI and IORI
have the same board of directors. Earl D. Cecil, a Director of ARI, is also a
Director of TCI and IORI.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those that are both important to the
presentation of ARI's financial condition and results of operations and require
management's most difficult, complex or subjective judgements. ARI's critical
accounting policies relate to the evaluation of impairment of long-lived assets
and the evaluation of the collectibility of accounts and notes receivable.

If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a
rental property to be held and used or land held for development may be
impaired, management performs a recoverability analysis based on estimated
undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the property in the future. If the
analysis indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from future cash
flows the property is written down to estimated fair value and an impairment
loss is recognized. If management decides to sell rental properties or land held
for

                                       26

        OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Critical Accounting Policies (Continued)

development, management evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amounts of
the assets. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying value is not
recoverable from estimated net sales proceeds, the property is written down to
estimated fair value less costs to sell and an impairment loss is recognized
within income from continuing operations. ARI's estimates of cash flow and fair
values of the properties are based on current market conditions and consider
matters such as rental rates and occupancies for comparable properties, recent
sales data for comparable properties and, where applicable, contracts or the
results of negotiations with purchasers or prospective purchasers. ARI's
estimates are subject to revision as market conditions and ARI's assessments of
them change.

ARI's allowance for doubtful accounts receivable and notes receivable is
established based on analysis of the risk of loss on specific accounts. The
analysis places particular emphasis on past due accounts. Management considers
the information such as the nature and age of the receivable, the payment
history of the tenant or other debtor, the financial condition of the tenant or
other debtor, and ARI's assessment of its ability to meet its lease or interest
obligations. ARI's estimate of the required allowance, which is reviewed on a
quarterly basis, is subject to revision as these factors change and is sensitive
to the effects of economic and market conditions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General. Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2002, totaled $2.6 million,
compared with $709,000 at December 31, 2001. Although ARI anticipates that
during the remainder of 2002 it will generate cash from operations, as discussed
below, such excess cash is not sufficient to discharge all of ARI's debt
obligations as they mature. ARI will therefore again rely on externally
generated funds, including aggressive land sales, selected sales of income
producing properties, borrowings against its investments in various real estate
entities, refinancing of properties, and, to the extent necessary, borrowings to
meet its debt service obligations, pay taxes, interest and other non-property
related expenses.

At December 31, 2001, notes payable totaling $267.5 million had either scheduled
maturities or required principal reduction payments during 2002. During the
first six months of 2002, ARI either extended, refinanced, paid down, paid off
or received commitments from lenders to extend or refinance $89.0 million of the
debt scheduled to mature in 2002.

Net cash used in operating activities decreased to $21.2 million in the six
months ended June 30, 2002, from $31.0 million in the six months ended June 30,
2001. Fluctuations in the components of cash flow from operations are discussed
in the following paragraphs.

Net cash from property operations (rents collected less payments for expenses
applicable to rental income) increased to $18.6 million in the

                                       27

        OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)

six months ended June 30, 2002 from $9.1 million in 2001. The increase is
primarily attributable to a decline in the payments for operating expenses in
2002 from an elevated level in 2001, when there was a significant paydown of
accounts payable. ARI expects a decrease in cash flow from property operations
during the remainder of 2002. Such decrease is expected to result from the
continued selective sale of income producing properties.

Net cash from pizza operations (sales less cost of sales) increased to $3.2
million in the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $2.9 million in the six
months ended June 30, 2001. The increase is primarily attributable to the
opening of three new stores in 2001.

Interest collected increased to $966,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2002,
from $300,000 in 2001. The increase was primarily attributable to the collection
of $542,000 in past due interest.

Interest paid of $30.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002,
approximated the $31.2 million in 2001.

Advisory fees paid of $3.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002,
approximated the $3.5 million in 2001.

General and administrative expenses paid increased to $6.5 million in the six
months ended June 30, 2002 from $4.5 million in 2001. The increase is primarily
attributable to an increase in legal fees and cost reimbursements paid to the
advisor.

ARI's cash flow from its investments in IORI and TCI is dependent on the ability
of each of the entities to make distributions. In the fourth quarter of 2000,
IORI and TCI suspended distributions. Accordingly, ARI received no current
distributions in the first six months of 2002 and 2001. However, in May 2001,
ARI received $53,000 in accumulated dividends on shares of Continental Mortgage
and Equity Trust that should have been exchanged for TCI Common Stock in 1999.

Other cash used in operating activities of $2.4 million in the six months ended
June 30, 2002, approximated the use of $2.5 million in 2001.

In the first six months of 2002, ARI received a total of $5.3 million on the
collection of two mortgage notes receivable and partial paydown of four mortgage
notes receivable.

In 2002, ARI purchased the following property:

     financial statements. ARI also received $6.3 million of 8% non-recourse,
     non-convertible Series A Preferred Stock ("Preferred Shares") of Innovo.

     The dividend on the Preferred Shares will be funded entirely and solely
     through member distributions from cash flows generated by the operation and
     subsequent sale of the sold properties. In the event the cash flows for the
     properties are insufficient to cover the 8% annual dividend, Innovo will
     have no obligation to cover any shortfall.

     The Preferred Shares have a mandatory redemption feature, and are
     redeemable from the cash proceeds received by Innovo from the operation and
     sale of the properties. All member distributions that are in excess of
     current and accrued 8% dividends must be used by Innovo to redeem the
     Preferred Shares. Since redemption of these shares is subject to the above
     future events, management has elected to record no basis in the Preferred
     Shares.

ARI has margin arrangements with various financial institutions and brokerage
firms which provide for borrowing up to 50% of the market value of ARI's
marketable equity securities. The borrowings under such margin arrangements are
secured by equity securities of IORI and TCI and ARI's trading portfolio and
bear interest rates ranging from 5.75% to 24.0%. Margin borrowing totaled $26.0
million at June 30, 2002.

Management expects that it will be necessary for ARI to sell $102.0 million,
$34.1 million and $1.2 million of its land holdings during each of the next
three years to satisfy the debt on such land as it matures. If ARI is unable to
sell at least the minimum amount of land to satisfy

the debt obligations on such land as it matures, or, if it was not able to
extend such debt, ARI would either sell other of its assets to pay such debt or
transfer the property to the lender.

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 to the
extent that the investment in the note exceeds management's estimate of the fair
value of the collateral property securing each note. The mortgage note
receivable review includes an evaluation of the collateral property securing
such note. The property review generally includes: (1) selective property
inspections; (2) a review of the property's current rents compared to market
rents; (3) a review of the property's expenses; (4) a review of maintenance
requirements; (5) a review of the property's cash flow; (6) discussions with the
manager of the property; and (7) a review of properties in the surrounding area.

Commitments and Contingencies

In March 1999, an agreement was reached with the Class A unitholders of Valley
Ranch, L.P. to acquire their eight million Class A units for $1.00 per unit. In
1999, three million units were purchased. Additionally, one million units were
purchased in January 2000, two million units were purchased in May 2001 and one
million units were purchased in May 2002. The remaining one million units were
purchased in August 2002.

Results of Operations

For the six months ended June 30, 2002, ARI reported a net loss of $23.6
million, compared to net income of $10.9 million for the six months ended June
30, 2001. The primary factors contributing to ARI's net loss are discussed in
the following paragraphs.

Rents decreased to $27.4 million and $53.9 million in the three and six months
ended June 30, 2002, from $30.4 million and $61.3 million in 2001. Rents from
commercial properties increased to $16.0 million for the six months ended June
30, 2002, from $14.9 million in 2001, rent from hotels increased to $18.2
million in the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $17.7 million in 2001 and
rent from apartments decreased to $19.2 million in the six months ended June 30,
2002, from $28.4 million in 2001. The increase in commercial property rents was
primarily attributable to increased occupancy, the increase in hotel property
rents was primarily attributable to the opening of the Hotel Sofia in

                                 33



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

Results of Operations (Continued)

2001 and the decrease in apartment rent was due to the sale of 17 apartments in
2001. Rental income is expected to decrease in the remainder of 2002 as a result
of continued property sales.

Property operations expense decreased to $19.6 million and $38.1 million in the
three and six months ended June 30, 2002, from $24.3 million and $46.2 million
in 2001. Property operations expense for commercial properties increased to $9.6
million in the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $8.4 million in 2001. For
hotels, property operations expense decreased to $12.7 million in the six months
ended June 30, 2002, from $15.9 million in 2001. For land, property operations
expense of $4.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 approximated the
$4.5 million in 2001. For apartments, property operations expense decreased to
$11.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $17.2 million in 2001.
The increase in commercial property operations expense was primarily
attributable to the acquisition of Plaza on Bachman Creek in 2002. The decrease
in hotel property operations expense was primarily due to the over estimation of
expenses at Hotel Sofia in 2001. The decrease in apartment operations expense
was primarily attributable to the sale of 17 apartments in 2001. Property
operations expense is expected to decrease in the remainder of 2002 as a result
of continued property sales.

Pizza parlor sales and cost of sales increased to $9.7 million and $7.8 million,
respectively, in the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $18.3 million and
$14.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $8.7 million and $7.1
million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and $16.6
million and $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The increase
was primarily attributable to the opening of three new stores in 2001, plus an
increase of 10.4% in same- store sales.

Interest income from notes receivable of $785,000 and $1.4 million in the three
and six months ended June 30, 2002 approximated the $776,000 and $1.2 million in
2001.

Equity in loss of investees decreased to $(5.2) million and $(9.2) million in
the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, from $(3.8) million and $(5.3)
million in 2001. The decrease was primarily attributable to increased net losses
for TCI and IORI in 2002.

Loss on the sale of investments in equity investees increased to $531,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $387,000 in the three and six months
ended June 30, 2001. See NOTE 5. "INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY INVESTEES."

Equity in gain on sale of real estate by equity investees decreased to $4.1
million and $8.3 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, from
$9.9 million and $11.4 million in 2001. The 2001 results are reported as a
component of net income (loss) from continuing operations, while the 2002
results are reported as a component of net income (loss) from discontinued
operations.

Results of Operations (Continued)

Other income increased to $142,000 and $326,000 in the three and six months
ended June 30, 2002 from $44,000 and $77,000 in the three and six months ended
June 30, 2001. The increase was primarily due to service fee income and
dividends on and redemption of Innovo Preferred Stock. See NOTE 2. "REAL ESTATE"
and NOTE 7. "NOTES PAYABLE."

Interest expense of $16.4 million and $32.8 million in the three and six months
ended June 30, 2002 approximated the $17.2 million and $33.3 million in 2001.

Depreciation and amortization expense of $3.8 million and $6.6 million in the
three and six months ended June 30, 2002, approximated the $3.9 million and $7.3
million in 2001.

General and administrative expenses increased to $3.2 million and $6.5 million
in the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, from $1.6 million and $4.5
million in 2001. The increase is primarily attributable to increased legal fees
and increased cost reimbursements paid to the advisor.

Advisory fees decreased to $1.5 million and $3.3 million in the three and six
months ended June 30, 2002 from $2.3 million and $3.5 million in 2001. The
decrease is due to the reduction in the total assets of ARI, which is the basis
for the fee.

There was no net income fee to affiliate in the three and six months ended June
30, 2002 compared to $1.8 million in the three and six months ended June 30,
2001. The income fee payable to ARI's advisor is 10% of the annualized net
income for the year, in excess of a 10% return on shareholders' equity. At June
30, 2002, ARI's annualized net income is below the 10% return threshold.

There was no incentive fee to affiliate in the three and six months ended June
30, 2002 compared to $4.3 million and $5.8 million in the three and six months
ended June 30, 2001. The incentive fee is only due if ARI is also subject to the
net income fee. At June 2002, the net income fee requirements are not met;
therefore, no incentive fee is due. This fee represents 10% of the excess of net
capital gains over net capital losses from sales of operating properties. The
amount of this fee for the remainder of 2002 will be dependent on the number of
operating properties sold, the net capital gains realized and whether the net
income fee is due.

Minority interest increased to $773,000 and $1.6 million in the three and six
months ended June 30, 2002, from $(95,000) and $1.5 million in 2001. The three
month increase is due to corrections made in the second quarter of 2001 that
effectively eliminated the expense for the quarter.

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


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.

Inflation

The effects of inflation on ARI's operations are not quantifiable. Revenues from
apartment operations 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 borrowings as well as the cost
of variable interest rate debt will be affected.

At June 30, 2002, ARI's exposure to a change in interest rates on its debt is as
follows:

     a.   designed such internal controls to insure that material information
          relating to ARI and its consolidated subsidiaries is made known to me
          by others within those entities, particularly for the periods
          presented in this quarterly report;

     b.   evaluated the effectiveness of ARI's internal controls as of a date
          within 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report; and

     c.   presented in this quarterly report my conclusions about the
          effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on a
          date within 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report;

5.   I have disclosed to ARI's auditors and Audit Committee of the Board of
     Directors (or persons fulfilling the equivalent function):

     a.   all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal
          controls which could adversely affect ARI's ability to record,
          process, summarize, and report financial data and have identified for
          ARI's auditors any material weaknesses in internal controls; and

     b.   any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
          employees who have a significant role in ARI's internal controls; and

                                       39



6.   I have indicated in this quarterly report whether or not there were
     significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could
     significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of my most
     recent evaluation, including corrective actions with regard to significant
     deficiencies and material weaknesses.
