Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Growth: Total revenue increased 38% for the three months and 41% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to the same periods in 2005. This was driven primarily by acquisitions and new developments, as well as a 115% increase in construction and service fee revenue due to the sale of a build-to-suit asset.
• Net Income: Net income rose 62% for the quarter and 18% for the nine-month period year-over-year.
• Debt Expansion: Total indebtedness increased significantly from $375.2 million at December 31, 2005, to $571.0 million at September 30, 2006, to fund acquisitions and development activities.
• Asset Base: Total assets grew from $799.2 million to $992.1 million, reflecting substantial capital expenditures and acquisitions.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

Outlook and Strategy: The Company intends to focus on targeted development and acquisitions of neighborhood and community shopping centers. It expects to incur additional debt for future projects. A strategic joint venture with Prudential Real Estate Investors was announced to pursue up to $1.25 billion in community shopping center opportunities, with the Company contributing 20% of equity capital.

Liquidity: The Company maintains a revolving credit facility with a borrowing base of approximately $132.8 million, with $21.0 million available for additional borrowings. The facility can be expanded to $250 million.

Risks and Contingencies:

• Insurance Costs: Insurance coverage for Florida properties may be expensive or difficult to obtain, particularly for windstorms and catastrophic events. The Company increased deductibles in October 2006.
• Tenant Solvency: Operating results depend on tenants' ability to pay rent. The Company is currently negotiating with potential tenants to replace Winn-Dixie at Shops at Eagle Creek following a bankruptcy auction.
• Interest Rate Risk: Approximately 38% of total debt is variable rate. A 100 basis point increase in rates would decrease annual cash flow by approximately $2.1 million.
• Asset Disposition: The Company recorded a $0.8 million loss on the sale of the Naperville Marketplace Marsh Supermarkets asset in June 2006.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Debt Maturities: Verify the refinancing plans for the $181.7 million in variable rate debt, much of which matures within one year (weighted average maturity of 0.8 years).
• Construction Pipeline: Confirm the status and funding requirements for the 11 development projects underway, with approximately $57 million remaining to be spent.
• Joint Venture Terms: Review the specific terms of the Prudential joint venture agreement and the timeline for equity contributions.
• Tenant Replacements: Monitor the leasing progress for the former Winn-Dixie space at Shops at Eagle Creek and the retenanting of spaces previously occupied by bankrupt tenants.
• FFO vs. Net Income: Analyze the reconciliation between Net Income and Funds From Operations (FFO) to understand the impact of depreciation and amortization on reported earnings.
