NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018 and 2017

NOTE 1 • ORGANIZATION

Investors Real Estate Trust, collectively with our consolidated subsidiaries (“IRET,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), is a ~~multifamily~~ real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused on the ownership, management, acquisition, redevelopment, and development of ~~multifamily~~apartment communities. As of ~~January~~October 31, 2018, we owned interests in ~~89 multifamily properties~~87 apartment communities consisting of ~~13,786~~13,702 apartment homes.

NOTE 2 • BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We conduct a majority of our business activities through our consolidated operating partnership, IRET Properties, aA North Dakota Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), as well as through a number of other consolidated subsidiary entities. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of all our subsidiaries in which we maintain a controlling interest, including the Operating Partnership. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Our fiscal year currently ends on April ~~30th.~~30. On September 20, 2018, our Board of Trustees approved a change in our fiscal year-end, beginning January 1, 2019, from April 30 to December 31. We will file a transition report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2018, in accordance with SEC rules and regulations, and all subsequent fiscal years, beginning in 2019, will be from January 1 to December 31. Our Sixth Restated Trustee's Regulations (Bylaws) reflecting this change in fiscal year-end is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.3.

The condensed consolidated financial statements also reflect the Operating Partnership's ownership of certain joint venture entities in which the Operating Partnership has a general partner or controlling interest. These entities are consolidated into our operations, with noncontrolling interests reflecting the noncontrolling partners’ share of ownership, income, and expenses.

PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENT CORRECTION OF AN IMMATERIAL MISSTATEMENT

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, we identified certain adjustments required to correct balances within total equity related to noncontrolling interests in our joint venture entities. Related to our acquisition of additional ownership interest in the joint venture entities, noncontrolling interest - consolidated real estate entities was understated and common shares of beneficial interest was overstated beginning in fiscal year 2017. The adjustments did not impact total assets, total liabilities, revenue, net income, net income available to common shareholders, number of common shares, or earnings per share.

Based on an analysis of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 250 - “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“ASC 250”), Staff Accounting Bulletin 99 - “Materiality” (“SAB 99”) and Staff Accounting Bulletin 108 - "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements" (“SAB 108”), we determined that these errors were immaterial to the previously-issued financial statements. The misstatement was corrected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of April 30, 2018 and the condensed consolidated statements of equity as of April 30, 2017, October 31, 2017 and April 30, 2018.

The effect of these revisions on our condensed consolidated balance sheet is as follows:

UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP are omitted. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, have been included.

The current period’s results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results which ultimately may be achieved for the year. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, ~~2017,~~2018, as filed with the SEC on June 28, ~~2017.~~2018.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

TAX CUTS AND JOBS ACT OF 2017

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 was passed on December 22, 2017. This Act includes a number of changes to the corporate income tax system, including (1) a reduction in the statutory federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for non-REIT “C” corporations, (2) changes to deductions for certain pass-through business income, and (3) potential limitations on interest expense, depreciation, and the deductibility of executive compensation. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at the corporate level and do not believe that any of the changes from the 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2007 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. However, the impact of this Act is not yet fully known, and there can be no assurance that it will not have an adverse impact on our results of operations.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting standards updates (“ASUs”).

Table of Contents

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers	This ASU will eliminate the transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replace it with a ~~principle based~~principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. The standard outlines a five-step model whereby revenue is recognized as performance obligations within a contract are satisfied.	This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, as a result of a deferral of the effective date arising from the issuance of ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Deferral of the Effective Date. ~~Early adoption is permitted.~~ We ~~will adopt~~adopted the new standard effective May 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach.	~~We are continuing to assess the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements and internal accounting processes.~~ The majority of our revenue is derived from rental income, which is scoped out from this standard and will be accounted for under ASC 840, Leases. Our other revenue streams, which ~~are being~~were evaluated under this ASU, include but are not limited to other income from residents determined not to be within the scope of ASC 840 and gains and losses from real estate dispositions. ~~We do not expect~~Refer to the ~~adoption~~Revenues section below for information regarding the impact of ~~ASU 2014-09 will have a material impact~~adopting the standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-02, Leases	This ASU amends existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including by requiring lessees to recognize most leases on the balance sheet and making certain changes to lessor accounting.	This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted.	We expect our residential leases, where we are ~~currently evaluating~~the lessor, will continue to be accounted for as operating leases under the new standard. As a result, we do not expect significant changes in the accounting for lease revenue. For leases where we are the lessee, we will recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability on our consolidated balance sheets upon adoption. We are continuing to evaluate the impact the new standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.
~~ASU 2016-09,~~ ~~Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting~~	This ASU amends several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, accrual of compensation cost, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows.	~~This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We adopted this guidance effective May 1, 2017.~~	Upon adoption of the standard, we elected to account for forfeitures when they occur instead of estimating the forfeitures. The new standard did not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or earnings per share.
ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments	This ASU addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing diversity in practice. The cash flow issues include debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs and proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims.	This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. ~~Early adoption is permitted.~~	We ~~are currently evaluating the impact~~adopted the new ~~standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.~~
~~ASU 2017-01,~~ ~~Clarifying the Definition of a Business~~	This ASU clarifies the definition of a business and provides further guidance for evaluating whether a transaction will be accounted for as an acquisition of an asset or a business. This new standard is required to be applied prospectively to transactions occurring after the date of adoption.	~~This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods.

ASU 2017-05, Other Income – Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets	This ASU clarifies the definition of an in-substance nonfinancial asset and changes the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets to be more consistent with the accounting for a sale of a business pursuant to ASU 2017-01. This ASU allows for either a retrospective or modified retrospective approach.	This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period.

REVENUES

We adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as of May 1, 2018. We elected to apply the new standard to contracts that are not complete as of May 1, 2018. We also elected to omit disclosing the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. Under the new standard, revenue is recognized in accordance with the transfer of goods and services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration the company expects to be entitled for those goods and services.

We primarily lease multifamily apartments under operating leases generally with terms of one year or less. Rental revenues are recognized in accordance with ASC 840, Leases, using a method that represents a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental income represents approximately 94.3% of our total revenues and includes gross market rent less adjustments for concessions, vacancy loss, and bad debt. Other property revenues represent the remaining 5.7% of our total revenue and are primarily driven by utility reimbursement from our residents and other fee income, which is typically recognized at a point in time.

Revenue streams that are included in ASU 2014-09 include:

Other property revenues: We recognize revenue for rental related income not included as a component of a lease, such as utility reimbursement and application fees, as earned, and have concluded that this is appropriate under the new standard.

Gains or losses on sales of real estate: Subsequent to the adoption of the new standard, a gain or loss is recognized when the criteria for derecognition of an asset are met, including when (1) a contract exists and (2) the buyer obtained control of the nonfinancial asset that was sold. As a result, we may recognize a gain on real estate disposition transactions that previously did not qualify as a sale or for full profit recognition under the previous accounting standard.

We concluded that the adoption of the new standard required a cumulative adjustment of $627,000 to the opening balance of retained earnings as of May 1, 2018, due to the sale of a group of properties in the prior fiscal year. The sale of properties was

previously accounted for using the installment method. Under the installment method, we recorded a mortgage receivable net of the deferred gain on sale, which was to be recognized as payments were received. The gain on sale under the new revenue standard is recognized when control of the assets is transferred to the buyer. As a result of our adoption of the new standard, we recorded a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings and increased the mortgage receivable by $627,000 to recognize the previously deferred gain on sale.

The following table presents the disaggregation of revenue streams of our rental income for the six months ended October 31, 2018:



		(in thousands, except percentages)
		Six Months Ended October 31, 2018
Revenue Stream	Applicable Standard	Amount of Revenue	Percent of Revenue
Rental revenue	Leases	86,394	94.3	%
Other property revenue	Revenue Recognition	5,190	5.7	%
		91,584	100.0	%

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

We periodically evaluate our long-lived assets, including investments in real estate, for impairment indicators. The impairment evaluation is performed on assets by property such that assets for a property form an asset group. The judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions, expected holding period of each asset group, and legal and environmental concerns. If indicators exist, we compare the expected future undiscounted cash flows for the long-lived asset group against the carrying amount of that asset group. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset group, an impairment loss is recorded for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount of the asset group. If our anticipated holding period for properties, the estimated fair value of properties, or other factors change based on market conditions or otherwise, our evaluation of impairment charges may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates, and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. Reducing planned property holding periods may increase the likelihood of recording impairment losses.

During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018, we recorded no impairment charges.

During the six months ended October 31, 2017, we recognized impairment charges of $256,000 on a parcel of land in Bismarck, ND. This property was written down to estimated fair value during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 based on receipt of a market offer to purchase and our intent to dispose of the property. We disposed of the property during the second quarter of fiscal year 2018.

~~Table of Contents~~

During the nine months ended January 31, 2017, we recognized impairment charges of $40.9 million, $5.8 million, $4.7 million, and $2.8 million, respectively, on three multifamily properties and one parcel of unimproved land in Williston, ND, due to deterioration of the market. These properties were written down to estimated fair value based on an independent appraisal in the case of one property and management cash flow estimates and market data in the case of the remaining assets. The properties, impaired for $40.9 million, $4.7 million, and $2.8 million, are owned by joint venture entities in which, at the time of impairment, we had an approximately 71.5%, 60%, and 70% ownership interest, respectively, and which are consolidated in our financial statements.

CHANGE IN DEPRECIABLE LIVES OF REAL ESTATE ASSETS

We review the estimated useful lives of our real estate assets on an ongoing basis. Prior to our strategic shift to become a multifamily-focused REIT, which began in fiscal year 2016, we operated in five segments (office, retail, industrial, healthcare and multifamily). Accordingly, our estimated useful lives represented a blend of these segments.

During fiscal years 2016, 2017, and ~~2017,~~2018, we disposed of the bulk of our office, retail, industrial, and ~~industrial portfolios as well as a portion of our~~ healthcare ~~portfolio.~~portfolios. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, we determined it was appropriate to review and adjust our estimated useful lives to be specific to our remaining asset portfolio. Effective May 1, 2017, we changed the estimated useful lives of our real estate assets to better reflect the estimated periods during which they will be of economic benefit. Generally, the estimated lives of buildings and improvements that previously were 20-40 years have been decreased to ~~10-30~~10-37 years, while those that were previously nine years were changed to 5-10 years. The effect of this change in estimate for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, ~~2018,~~2017, was to increase depreciation expense by approximately ~~$24.8~~$20.3 million, decrease net income by ~~$24.8~~$20.3 million, and decrease earnings per share by ~~$0.18.~~$0.15. Of the expense increase, $9.0 million, or $0.07 per share, represented depreciation on assets that were fully depreciated under the new estimated useful lives in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018.

MORTGAGE ~~LOANS~~ RECEIVABLE AND NOTES RECEIVABLE

In August 2017, we sold 13 multifamily properties in exchange for cash and a note secured by a mortgage on the assets. ~~The sale~~As of October 31, 2018, the remaining balance on the mortgage was recorded using the installment method, under which cash receipts are apportioned between cost recovered and the gain on sale. The $11.0 million note is presented net of $626,000 of deferred gain in mortgage loans receivable on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.$10.5 million. The note bears an interest rate of 5.5% and matures in August 2020. Monthly payments are interest-only, with the principal balance payable at maturity. During the ~~three and nine~~ six

months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018 and 2017, we received and recognized approximately ~~$154,000~~$350,000 and ~~273,000, respectively,~~$119,000 of interest ~~income.~~income, respectively. During the six months ended October 31, 2018, we received a payment of $425,000 to pay down the balance of the mortgage receivable and released one of the 13 properties from the assets used to secure the mortgage.

In July 2017, we originated a $16.2 million loan in a multifamily development located in New Hope, MN, a Minneapolis suburb. ~~The investment will be funded in installments through the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018.~~ As of ~~January~~July 31, 2018, we had funded ~~$10.2 million,~~the full initial loan balance, which appears in other assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance ~~Sheets.~~Sheets; however, we may fund additional amounts upon satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the loan agreement. The note bears an interest rate of 6%, matures in July 2023, and provides us an option to purchase the development prior to the loan maturity date.

VARIABLE INTEREST ~~ENTITY~~ENTITIES

We have determined that our Operating Partnership and each of our less-than-wholly owned real estate partnerships ~~are~~is a variable interest ~~entities~~entity (“~~VIEs”~~VIE”), as the limited partners or the functional equivalent of limited partners lack substantive kick-out rights and substantive participating rights. We are the primary beneficiary of the VIEs, and the ~~partnerships~~VIEs are required to be consolidated on our balance sheet because we have a controlling financial interest in the VIEs and have both the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the ~~VIE’s~~ economic performance of the VIEs as well as the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. Because our Operating Partnership is a VIE, all of our assets and liabilities are held through a VIE.

NOTE 3 • EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of our common shares of beneficial interest (“Common Shares”) outstanding during the period. We have issued restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under our 2015 Incentive Plan, which could have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share upon exercise of the RSUs. Other than the issuance of RSUs, we have no outstanding options, warrants, convertible stock or other contractual obligations requiring issuance of additional shares that would result in dilution of earnings. Under the terms of the Operating Partnership’s Agreement of Limited Partnership, limited partners have the right to require the Operating Partnership to redeem their limited partnership units (“Units”) any time following the first anniversary of the date they acquired such Units (“Exchange Right”). Upon the exercise of Exchange Rights, and in our sole discretion, we may issue Common Shares in exchange for Units on a one-for-one basis. The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018 and 2017:

Share Repurchase Program. On December 7, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program to repurchase up to $50 million of our Common Shares over a one-year period. On December 5, 2017, our Board of Trustees reauthorized this share repurchase program for an additional one-year period. See Note 15 - Subsequent Events for additional information regarding our recent reauthorization of the share repurchase program. Under this program, we may repurchase Common Shares in open-market purchases, including pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 plans, as determined by management and in accordance with ~~SEC requirements.~~the requirements of the SEC. The extent to which we repurchase our shares, and the timing of repurchases, will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, regulatory requirements, and other corporate considerations, as determined by ~~our~~the executive ~~management.~~management team.

~~Issuance of Series C Preferred Shares and Redemption of Series B Preferred Shares.~~ In the quarter ended October 31, 2017, we issued 4,118,460 shares of our 6.625% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares and redeemed all 4,600,000 shares of our 7.95% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares.

NOTE 5 • SEGMENT REPORTING

We operate in a single reportable segment, which includes the ownership, management, development, redevelopment, and acquisition of ~~multifamily properties.~~apartment communities. Each of our operating properties is considered a separate operating segment because each property earns revenues, incurs expenses, and has discrete financial information. Our chief operating decision-makers evaluate each property's operating results to make decisions about resources to be allocated and to assess performance. We do not group our operations based on geography, size, or type. Our ~~multifamily properties~~apartment communities have similar long-term economic characteristics and provide similar products and services to our ~~tenants.~~residents. No ~~multifamily property~~apartment community comprises more than 10% of consolidated revenues, ~~profit,~~profits, or assets. Accordingly, our ~~multifamily properties~~apartment communities are aggregated into a single reportable segment.

Prior to the third quarter of fiscal year 2018, we reported our results in two reportable segments: multifamily and healthcare. We sold substantially all of our healthcare portfolio during the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 and classified it as discontinued operations (see Note 7 for additional information). Healthcare no longer meets the quantitative thresholds for reporting as a separate reportable segment and therefore is included in “all other” with other non-multifamily properties. As of July 31, 2018, we no longer owned any healthcare properties.

Our executive management team comprises our chief operating decision-makers. This team measures the performance of our reportable segment based on net operating income (“NOI”), which we define as total real estate revenues less ~~direct~~real estate

Table of Contents

expenses. Real estate expenses consist of property operating expenses and real estate ~~expenses (including real estate taxes).~~tax expense and do not include property management expense. We believe that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for a REIT’s operating real estate because it provides a measure of operations that is unaffected by depreciation, amortization, financing, and general and administrative expenses. NOI does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income, net income available for common shareholders, or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance.

The revenues and NOI for the multifamily reportable segment are summarized as follows for the ~~three-~~three and ~~nine-month~~six month periods ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, along with reconciliations to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Segment assets are also reconciled to total assets as reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6 • COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation. We are subject to a variety of legal actions for personal injury or property damage arising in the ordinary course of our business, most of which are covered by liability insurance. Various ~~claims of~~ resident ~~discrimination~~claims are also brought periodically, ~~brought,~~ most of which are covered by insurance. While resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of these claims and legal proceedings will not have a material effect on our liquidity, financial position, cash flows, or results of operations.

Environmental Matters. Under various federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal of, or remediation of, certain hazardous or toxic substances in, on, around, or under the property. While we currently have no knowledge of any material violation of environmental laws, ordinances, or regulations at any of our properties, there can be no assurance that areas of contamination will not be identified at any of our properties or that changes in environmental laws, regulations, or cleanup requirements would not result in material costs to us.

Restrictions on Taxable Dispositions. ~~Twenty-six~~Twenty-four of our properties, consisting of ~~4,212~~4,099 apartment units, are subject to restrictions on our ability to resell in taxable transactions. These restrictions are contained in agreements we entered into with some of the sellers or contributors of the properties and are effective for varying periods. The real estate investment amount of these properties (net of accumulated depreciation) was ~~$458.4~~$536.9 million at ~~January~~October 31, 2018. We do not believe that these ~~restrictions~~agreements materially affect the conduct of our business or our ~~decision as to~~decisions whether to dispose of ~~these~~restricted properties during the restriction ~~periods.~~period because we generally hold these and our other properties for investment purposes rather than for sale. In addition, where we deem it to be in our shareholders' best interests to dispose of such properties, we generally seek to structure sale of such properties as tax deferred transactions under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code").

If we decide to sell one or more of these properties and are unable to structure sales of such properties as tax deferred transactions under Section 1031 of the ~~Internal Revenue~~ Code, we may be required to provide tax indemnification payments to the parties to these agreements.

~~Tax-Deferred Proceeds.~~ As

Table of January 31, 2018, we had $116.8 million of tax-deferred exchange proceeds remaining from the sale of our healthcare portfolio included within restricted cash on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Replacement property must be acquired by June 27, 2018 in order to complete the exchange.Contents

~~Notes Receivable.~~ In July 2017, we originated a $16.2 million loan in a multifamily development located in New Hope, MN, a suburb of Minneapolis. The investment will be funded in installments through the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018. As of January 31, 2018, $6.0 million remained to be funded. See Note 2 for additional information.

NOTE 7 • DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

We report in discontinued operations the results of operations and the related gains or losses on the sales of properties that have either been disposed of or classified as held for sale and meet the classification of a discontinued operation as described in ASC 205, -- "Presentation of Financial Statements," and ASC 360, -- "Property, Plant, and Equipment: Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity." Under this standard, a disposal (or classification as held for sale) of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.

We determined that our strategic decision to exit our healthcare segment met the criteria for discontinued operations, and we consequently classified 27 healthcare properties sold during the three months ended January 31, 2018, as discontinued operations. We classified no new dispositions or properties held for sale as discontinued operations during fiscal year 2017. During fiscal year 2016, we determined that our strategic decision to exit senior housing met the criteria for discontinued operations, and we consequently classified 34 senior housing properties as held for sale and discontinued operations at April 30, 2016. Thirty-two of those senior housing properties were sold during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017, and the remaining two senior housing properties were sold during the three and six months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017.

As noted above, as of ~~January~~October 31, 2018, we owned 3441 multifamily and other properties that were not encumbered by mortgages, with 2532 of those properties providing credit support for our unsecured borrowings. Our primary unsecured credit facility is a revolving, multi-bank line of credit, with the Bank of Montreal serving as administrative agent. Our line of credit has total commitments of ~~$300.0~~$250.0 million, with borrowing capacity based on the value of properties contained in the unencumbered asset pool ("UAP"). ~~Due to the recent disposition of our healthcare properties, the~~The UAP currently provides for a borrowing capacity of ~~$219.2~~$246.0 million, providing additional borrowing availability of ~~$152.1~~$176.5 million beyond the ~~$67.0~~$69.5 million drawn as of ~~January~~October 31, 2018. This credit facility matures on ~~January~~August 31, ~~2021,~~2022 , with one twelve-month option to extend the maturity date at our election.

During the three months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018, we ~~entered into a~~amended our primary unsecured credit facility. We extended the maturity date on our existing $70.0 million unsecured term loan, which now matures on January 15, 2024. We also added a new $75.0 million, seven-year term loan which matures on August 31, 2023. We have the option to further increase the credit capacity to $500 million (from current aggregate commitments totaling $370 million) by either adding additional banks to the facility or obtaining agreements from the existing banks to increase their commitments.2025.

NOTE 10 • DERIVATIVE ~~INSTRUMENT~~INSTRUMENTS

Our objective in using an interest rate ~~derivative~~derivatives is to ~~hedge~~add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to ~~the variability in cash flows of our floating-rate debt.~~interest rate fluctuations. To accomplish this objective, ~~during the three months ended January 31, 2018,~~ we ~~entered into an~~primarily use interest rate swap ~~contract~~contracts to fix the variable interest rate on our term ~~loan.~~loans.

Under ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which we adopted on November 1, 2017, the ineffective portion of a hedging instrument is no longer required to be recognized currently in earnings or disclosed. Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income for our interest rate swap will be reclassified to interest expense as interest ~~payments are made~~expense is incurred on our term ~~loan.~~loans. During the next twelve months, we estimate an additional $320,000 will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense.

NOTE 11 • FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities are carried at amounts that reasonably approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. For variable rate debt that re-prices frequently, fair values are based on carrying values. The fair values of our financial instruments approximate their carrying amount in the consolidated financial statements except for fixed rate debt.

In determining the fair value of other financial instruments, we apply ~~Financial Accounting Standard Board~~FASB ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures," or ASC 820. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (Levels 1 and 2) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (Level 3). Fair value estimates may differ from the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon sale or disposition of the assets and liabilities.

~~Table of Contents~~

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

~~During the three months ended January 31, 2018, we entered into an interest rate swap to manage our interest rate risk.~~ The fair value of our interest rate ~~swap is~~swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting discounted expected variable cash payments and receipts. The variable cash payments and receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates (a forward curve) derived from observable market interest rate curves. We also consider both our own nonperformance risk and the counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurement. ~~The fair value of the derivative by its level in the fair value hierarchy is as follows:~~

failure of new acquisitions to achieve anticipated results or be efficiently integrated;

inability to complete lease-up of our projects on schedule and on budget;

inability to sell our non-core properties on terms that are acceptable;

inability to attract and retain qualified personnel;

cyber liability or potential liability for breaches of our privacy or information security systems;

inability to comply with environmental laws and regulations; and

other risks identified in this Report, in other SEC reports, or in other documents that we publicly disseminate.

Executive Summary

We own, manage, acquire, redevelop, and develop ~~multifamily~~ apartment communities. We primarily focus on investing in markets characterized by stable and growing economic conditions, strong employment, and an attractive quality of life that we believe, in combination, lead to higher demand for our apartment homes and retention of our residents. As of ~~January~~October 31, 2018, we owned interests in ~~89 multifamily properties~~87 apartment communities consisting of ~~13,786~~13,702 apartment homes. Property owned was $1.6 billion at ~~January~~October 31, 2018, compared to ~~$1.4~~$1.7 billion at April 30, ~~2017.~~2018.

Renting apartment homes is our primary source of revenue, and our business objective is to provide great homes for our residents. We strive to maximize resident satisfaction and retention by investing in high-quality assets in desirable locations and creating vibrant apartment communities through service-oriented operations. We believe that delivering superior resident experiences will enhance resident satisfaction while also driving profitability for our business and our shareholders. We have paid quarterly distributions continuously since our first distribution in 1971.

Overview of the Three Months Ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018

For the three months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018, ~~we generated~~ revenues ~~of $43.3~~increased by $3.7 million to $45.6 million, compared to ~~$40.2~~$41.9 million for the three months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2017. Expenses increased by $2.8 million to ~~$41.4~~$43.4 million for the three months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018, compared to ~~$33.6~~$40.6 million for the three months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2017. The drivers of these changes are discussed in the “Results of Operations” section below.

Summarized below are significant transactions that occurred during the ~~third~~second quarter of our fiscal year ~~2018:~~2019:

~~Acquired a 274-unit multifamily property in Denver, CO, for a purchase price of $90.6 million.~~

~~Disposed of 27 healthcare properties, two multifamily properties, and two other properties for sales prices totaling $442.8 million.~~

~~Paid off $96.2 million of mortgage debt and incurred $6.4 million of prepayment penalties included in continuing and discontinued operations related to properties sold during the quarter.~~

~~Amended~~On August 31, 2018, we amended our ~~line of~~ credit ~~to provide for a new term loan of up to $70~~agreement to:


◦	increase the overall unsecured facility from $370 million to $395 million, reallocating the commitment for the revolving line of credit to $250 million and the remaining $145 million between two term loans;


◦	extend the maturity of the revolving line of credit to August 2022;


◦	extend the existing $70 million unsecured term loan maturity to January 2024; and


◦	add a new $75 million, 7-year unsecured term loan maturing in August 2025.

Under the amendment, the interest rate on our existing facilities decreased by 25-35 basis points (depending on our overall leverage). We also entered into a ~~hedge instrument~~swap agreement for the entire $75 million and full term of the new unsecured 7-year term loan in our ongoing effort to ~~hedge~~reduce floating interest rate exposure.

On September 10, 2018, we entered into a swap agreement covering the ~~risk~~extension of ~~an increase~~the $70 million term loan from January 2023 to January 2024, resulting in ~~interest rates.~~both term loans being covered by swap agreements for the duration of the terms.

We sold one commercial property and one parcel of land for a total sale price of $3.1 million.

See Note 7 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for further information on discontinued operations.

Net Operating Income

Net Operating Income (“NOI”) is a non-U.S. GAAP measure, which we define as total real estate revenues less real estate expenses. Real estate expenses consist of property operating expenses and real estate tax expense and do not include property management expense. We believe that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for a REIT’s operating real estate because it provides a measure of operations that is unaffected by depreciation, amortization, financing, and general and administrative expenses. NOI does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income, net income available for common shareholders, or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance.

The following table shows real estate revenue, real estate operating expenses, and NOI for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, for our multifamily ~~operating segment.~~and other properties. For a reconciliation of NOI to net income as reported, see Note 5 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

The table also shows multifamily NOI on a same-store ~~property~~ and non-same-store ~~property~~properties basis. ~~Information provided on a same-store~~Same-store properties ~~basis includes the results of multifamily~~are properties ~~that we have~~ owned ~~and operated~~or in service for the entirety of ~~both~~the periods being compared, ~~(except for properties classified as held for sale)~~ and, ~~which,~~ in the case of development or re-development properties, those that have achieved a ~~stabilized~~target level of occupancy ~~which is generally~~of 90%.

For comparison of the ~~three and nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018 and 2017, ~~27 multifamily properties~~four apartment communities were ~~non-same-store, of which 11 were held for investment and 16 were sold properties. Of the 11 non-same-store properties held for investment, seven were in-service development properties.~~categorized as non-same-store.

This comparison allows us to evaluate the performance of existing properties and their contribution to net income. Management believes that measuring performance on a same-store property basis is useful to investors because it enables evaluation of how our properties are performing year-over-year. Management uses this measure to assess whether or not it has been successful in increasing NOI and controlling operating costs. The discussion below focuses on the main factors affecting real estate revenue and real estate expenses from same-store properties.

PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

During the ~~third~~second quarter of fiscal year ~~2018, we acquired one multifamily property for a purchase price of $90.6 million. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2018,~~2019, we sold ~~two multifamily properties, 27 healthcare properties,~~one commercial property and ~~two other commercial properties~~one parcel of unimproved land for a total sale price of ~~$442.8~~$3.1 million. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, we had no acquisitions of properties. See Note 8 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for a table detailing our acquisitions and dispositions during the ~~nine-month~~six-month periods ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018 and 2017. Subsequent to quarter-end, we entered into a purchase agreement to acquire Westend, a 390-unit multifamily apartment community located in downtown Denver, CO, which is expected to close during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, and sold a commercial property and adjacent parcel of unimproved land in Bismarck, ND, for an aggregate sale price of $5.5 million. See Note 15 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

We consider Funds from Operations (“FFO”) to be a useful measure of performance for an equity REIT. We use the definition of FFO adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”). NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income or loss attributable to common shareholders computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for:

depreciation and amortization related to real estate;

gains orand losses ~~on sales~~from the sale of ~~previously depreciated operating properties;~~certain real estate assets;

~~cumulative effect of changes~~gains and losses from change in ~~accounting principles;~~control; and

impairment write-downs of ~~depreciable~~certain real estate ~~assets;~~

~~write-downs of~~assets and investments in ~~affiliates due~~entities when the impairment is directly attributable to ~~a decrease~~decreases in the value of depreciable real estate ~~assets~~ held by ~~affiliates;~~

~~depreciation of real estate assets; and~~

~~adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.~~the entity.

Due to limitations of the FFO definition adopted by NAREIT, we have made certain interpretations in applying the definition. We believe that all such interpretations not specifically provided for in the NAREIT definition are consistent with the definition. Effective for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018, we included impairment charges in FFO for ~~nondepreciable~~ assets ~~in FFO.~~incidental to our main business.

We believe that FFO, which is a standard supplemental measure for equity real estate investment trusts, is helpful to investors in understanding our operating performance, primarily because its calculation excludes depreciation and amortization expense on real estate assets, thereby providing an additional perspective on our operating results. We believe that GAAP historical cost depreciation of real estate assets generally is not correlated with changes in the value of those assets, whose value does not diminish predictably over time, as historical cost depreciation implies. The exclusion in NAREIT’s definition of FFO of impairment write-downs and gains and losses from the sale of previously depreciated operating real estate assets helps to identify the operating results of the long-term assets that form the base of our investments, and assists management and investors in comparing those operating results between periods. FFO is also used by our management and investors to identify trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, and operating costs.

While FFO is widely used by us as a primary performance metric, not all real estate companies use the same definition of FFO or calculate FFO the same way. Accordingly, FFO presented here is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measurement of performance, but rather should be considered as an additional, supplemental measure. FFO also does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is not necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of our needs or our ability to service indebtedness or make distributions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity and Financial Condition

We desire to create and maintain a strong balance sheet that offers financial flexibility and enables us to pursue and acquire properties that enhance our portfolio composition, operating metrics, and cash flow growth prospects. We intend to strengthen our capital and liquidity positions by continuing to focus on improving our core fundamentals, which include generating positive cash flows from operations, maintaining appropriate debt levels and leverage ratios, and controlling overhead costs.

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents on hand and cash flows generated from operations. Other sources include availability under our unsecured ~~line~~lines of credit, proceeds from property dispositions, offerings of preferred and common stock under our shelf registration statement, and ~~other short-term~~ unsecured ~~borrowings~~term loans or long-term secured mortgages.

Our primary liquidity demands are normally-recurring operating and overhead expenses, debt service and repayments, capital improvements to our properties, distributions to the holders of our preferred shares, Common Shares, and Units, value-add redevelopment, and acquisition of additional properties.

We believe that our financial condition and liquidity are sufficient to meet our reasonably anticipated liquidity demands during ~~fiscal year 2018~~2019 and ~~fiscal year 2019.~~2020. Factors that could increase or decrease our future liquidity include, but are not limited to, volatility in capital and credit markets, our ability to access capital and credit markets, the minimum REIT dividend requirements, and our ability to complete asset purchases, sales, or developments.

Capital Resources and Cash Flows

As of ~~January~~October 31, 2018, we had total liquidity of approximately ~~$174.9~~$195.3 million, which includes ~~$152.2~~$176.5 million available on our line of credit, ~~and $22.7~~$12.8 million of cash and cash ~~equivalents.~~equivalents, and $6.0 million under an operating line of credit described below. As of April 30, ~~2017,~~2018, we had total liquidity of approximately ~~$177.7~~$193.9 million, which included ~~$148.9~~$176.0 million on our line of credit, ~~and $28.8~~$11.9 million of cash and cash ~~equivalents.~~equivalents, and $6.0 million under an operating line of credit.

As of ~~January~~October 31, 2018, we also had restricted cash consisting of ~~$116.8 million of net tax-deferred exchange proceeds remaining from the sale of our healthcare portfolio and $4.5~~$5.1 million of escrows held by lenders for real estate taxes, insurance, and capital additions. As of April 30, ~~2017,~~2018, we had restricted cash consisting of ~~$23.7 million of net tax-deferred exchange proceeds remaining from a portion of our senior housing sale, and $4.3~~$4.2 million of escrows held by lenders for real estate taxes, insurance, and capital additions.

~~Our~~During the three months ended October 31, 2018, we amended our primary unsecured credit facility. We increased our overall unsecured facility from $370.0 million to $395.0 million, reallocating the commitment for the revolving line of credit ~~has~~from $300.0 million to $250.0 million and reallocating the remaining $145.0 million between two term loans: a $70.0 million unsecured term loan that matures on January 15, 2024 and a $75.0 million unsecured term loan that matures on August 31, 2025. As of October 31, 2018, our line of credit had total commitments of ~~$300.0~~$250.0 million, with borrowing capacity based on the value of properties contained in an unencumbered asset pool (UAP). ~~Due to the recent disposition of our healthcare properties, the~~The UAP provided for a borrowing capacity of approximately ~~$219.1~~$246.0 million at quarter-end, offering additional borrowing availability of ~~$152.2~~$176.5 million beyond the ~~$67.0~~$69.5 million drawn as of ~~January~~October 31, 2018. At April 30, ~~2017,~~2018, the line of credit borrowing capacity was ~~$206.0~~$300.0 million based on the UAP, of which ~~$57.1~~$124.0 million was drawn on the line.

During the ~~quarter~~year ended ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2018, we entered into a ~~$70.0~~$6.0 million ~~unsecured~~operating line of credit. This operating line of credit is designed to enhance treasury management activities and more effectively manage cash balances. This operating line has a one-year term, ~~loan that matures~~with pricing based on ~~January 31, 2023. We have~~a market spread plus the option to increase the credit capacity to $500.0 million (from current aggregate commitments totaling $370.0 million), either by adding additional banks to the facility or obtaining agreements from the existing banks to increase their commitments.one-month LIBOR index rate.

For information regarding our cash flows for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018 and 2017, see the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in Part I, Item 1 above.

In addition to cash flow from operations, during the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018, we generated ~~capital~~cash from various activities, including:

~~Disposing~~The disposition of ~~15 multifamily properties, 33 other~~three apartment communities, three commercial properties, and ~~one~~three parcels of land ~~parcel~~ for a total ~~proceeds~~sale price of ~~approximately $509.6 million;~~

~~Issuing $103.0 million of 6.625% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares, with~~$52.2 million. The net proceeds of ~~approximately $99.5 million;~~these transactions was $21.6 million after pay down of debt, and we distributed $1.9 million of the net proceeds to our joint venture partners in those transactions.

During the six months ended October 31, 2018, we used cash for various activities, including:

Repaying $62.7 million of mortgage principal; and

~~Closing a $70.0 million term loan that expires in 2023.~~Funding capital expenditures for apartment communities of approximately $6.8 million.

Table of Contents

~~During the nine months ended January 31, 2018, we used capital for various activities, including:~~

~~Acquiring three apartment properties for approximately $244.4 million;~~

~~Redeeming the full outstanding balance of our 7.95% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares for approximately $115.0 million;~~

~~Repaying approximately $143.3 million of mortgage principal;~~

~~Repurchasing approximately 1.2 million Common Shares and redeeming approximately 1.4 million Units for an aggregate total cost of approximately $15.7 million;~~

~~Seller-financing associated with a disposition of approximately $11.0 million and funding a note receivable for a third-party apartment development of approximately $10.2 million; and~~

~~Funding multifamily capital expenditures of approximately $10.2 million.~~

~~Inflation~~

Substantially all of our apartment leases are for a term generally ranging from six to eighteen months. In an inflationary environment, we may realize increased rents at the commencement of new leases or upon the renewal of existing leases. We believe the short-term nature of our leases generally minimizes our risk from the adverse effects of inflation.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A summary of our critical accounting policies is included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, ~~2017,~~2018, filed with the SEC on June 28, ~~2017,~~2018 under the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Effective May 1, ~~2017,~~2018, we ~~reviewed~~adopted ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts With Customers," which eliminates the transaction- and ~~changed~~industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replaces it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition Refer to Note 2 of the ~~estimated useful lives of our real estate assets~~Notes to better reflect the estimated periods during which these assets will be of economic benefit. Generally, the estimated lives of buildings and improvements that previously were 20-40 years have been decreased to 10-30 years, while those that were previously nine years were changed to 5-10 years.Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for additional information. There have been no other significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the ~~three or nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2018.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our exposure to market risk is primarily related to fluctuations in the general level of interest rates on our current and future fixed and variable rate debt obligations. We currently use an interest rate ~~swap~~swaps to offset the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our $70.0 million and $75.0 million variable-rate term ~~loan.~~loans. The swap on our $70.0 million term loan has a notional amount of $70.0 million and an average pay rate of 2.16%,. The swap on our $75.0 million term loan has a notional amount of $75.0 million and aan average pay rate of 2.81%. The fair value of ~~$359,000.~~our interest rate swap contracts is $3.3 million. We do not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The interest rate swap exposes us to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparty under the terms of the agreement.

As of ~~January~~October 31, 2018, we had ~~$61.0 million of~~no variable-rate mortgage debt outstanding and ~~$67.0~~$214.5 million of variable-rate borrowings under our line of ~~credit.~~credit and term loans, of which, $145.0 million is fixed through interest rate swaps. We estimate that an increase in 30-day LIBOR of 100 basis points with constant risk spreads would result in our net income being reduced by approximately ~~$1.3 million~~$695,000 on an annual basis. We estimate that a decrease in 30-day LIBOR of 100 basis points would increase the amount of net income by a similar amount.

Mortgage loan indebtedness decreased by ~~$131.0~~$62.7 million as of ~~January~~October 31, 2018, compared to April 30, ~~2017,~~2018, due to loan payoffs and property dispositions. As of ~~January~~October 31, 2018, ~~89.0%~~100% of our ~~$555.9~~$449.4 million of mortgage debt was at fixed rates of interest, with staggered maturities, compared to ~~91.6%~~95.6% as of April 30, ~~2017.~~2018. As of ~~January~~October 31, 2018, the weighted average rate of interest on our mortgage debt was ~~4.63%~~4.59%, compared to ~~4.71%~~4.69% on April 30, ~~2017. Even though our~~2018. Our goal is to ~~maintain a fairly low~~minimize exposure to interest rate ~~risk,~~risk; however, we may become vulnerable to significant fluctuations in interest rates on any future repricing or refinancing of our fixed or variable rate debt and on future debt.

The following table provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For debt obligations, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates.
