DUKE REALTY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. General Basis of Presentation
The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Duke Realty Corporation (the Company) without audit (except for the Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2006). The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included herein and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Our rental operations are conducted through Duke Realty Limited Partnership (DRLP). Approximately 93.3% of the common partnership interests of DRLP (Units) were owned by us at June 30, 2007. The remaining Units are redeemable for shares of our common stock on a one-to-one basis. We conduct our Service Operations through Duke Realty Services LLC and Duke Realty Services Limited Partnership, and are the sole general partner of both entities. We also conduct Service Operations through Duke Construction Limited Partnership, which is effectively 100% owned by DRLP. The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and our majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this Report), the terms we, us and our refer to the Company and those entities owned or controlled by the Company.
2. Reclassifications
Certain 2006 balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2007 presentation.
In February 2007, we closed on the acquisition of Bremner Healthcare Real Estate (Bremner), a national health care development and management firm. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand our development capabilities within the health care real estate market.
The initial consideration paid to the sellers totaled $47.1 million and the sellers will be eligible for further contingent payments over the next three years.
Approximately $39.1 million of the total purchase price is allocated to goodwill, which is attributable to the value of Bremners overall development capabilities and its in-place workforce. The results of operations for Bremner since the date of acquisition have been included in continuing operations in our consolidated financial statements.

|
LIBOR + .525% |
|
$ |

|
We use this line of credit to fund development activities, acquire additional rental properties and provide working capital.
The line of credit provides us with an option to obtain borrowings from financial institutions that participate in the line, at rates lower than the stated interest rate, subject to certain restrictions. Interest rates on the amounts outstanding on the unsecured line of credit as of June 30, 2007 range from LIBOR +.16% to LIBOR +.525% (equal to 5.480% and 5.845% as of June 30, 2007).
The line of credit also contains financial covenants that require us to meet financial ratios and defined levels of performance, including those related to variable rate indebtedness, consolidated net worth and debt-to-market capitalization. As of June 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all covenants under our line of credit.
5. Related Party Transactions
We provide property management, leasing, construction and other tenant related services to unconsolidated companies in which we have equity interests. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we received management fees of $3.3 million and $2.2 million, leasing fees of $1.4 million and $1.6 million and construction and development fees of $6.5 million and $3.2 million, respectively, from these companies. These fees approximate market rates for these types of services and we have eliminated our ownership percentage of these fees in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
6. Net Income Per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available for common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing the sum of net income available for common shareholders and the minority interest in earnings allocable to Units not owned by us, by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and minority Units outstanding, including any potential dilutive common equivalents for the period.

Additionally, a partner in one of our unconsolidated joint ventures has the option to convert a portion of its ownership in the joint venture to our common shares. The effect of this option on earnings per share is anti-dilutive for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.
7. Segment Reporting
We are engaged in three reportable operating segments, the first two of which consist of the ownership and rental of office and industrial real estate investments (collectively, Rental Operations). The third reportable segment consists of our build-to-suit for sale operations and providing of various real estate services such as property management, maintenance, leasing, development and construction management to third-party property owners and joint ventures (Service Operations). Our reportable segments offer different products or services and are managed separately because each segment requires different operating strategies and management expertise.
The assets of the Service Operations business segment generally include properties under development. During the period between the completion of development, rehabilitation or repositioning of a Service Operations property and the date the property is contributed to a property fund or sold to a third party, the property and its associated rental income and rental expenses are included in the applicable Rental Operations segment because the primary activity associated with the Service Operations property during that period is rental activities. Upon contribution or sale, the resulting gain or loss is part of the income of the Service Operations business segment.
Non-segment revenue consists mainly of equity in earnings of unconsolidated companies and other insignificant rental operations such as retail and medical office properties. Segment FFO information (FFO is defined below) is calculated by subtracting operating expenses attributable to the applicable segment from segment revenues. Non-segment assets consist of corporate assets, including cash, deferred financing costs and investments in unconsolidated companies. Interest expense and other non-property specific revenues and expenses are not allocated to individual segments in determining our performance measure.
8
We assess and measure segment operating results based upon an industry performance measure referred to as Funds From Operations (FFO), which management believes is a useful indicator of our operating performance. FFO is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental operating performance measure of an equity real estate investment trust (REIT) like Duke. FFO is calculated in accordance with the definition that was adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from net income determined in accordance with GAAP. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure developed by NAREIT to compare the operating performance of REITs. The most comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). FFO should not be considered as a substitute for net income or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry analysts and investors have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents GAAP net income (loss), excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization, and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Management believes that the use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and makes comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management believes FFO is a useful measure for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance (although FFO should be reviewed in conjunction with net income which remains the primary measure of performance) because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO provides a useful comparison of the operating performance of our real estate between periods or as compared to different companies.

In addition to revenues and FFO, we also review our recurring capital expenditures in measuring the performance of our individual Rental Operations segments. These recurring capital expenditures consist of tenant improvements, leasing commissions and building improvements. We review these expenditures to determine the costs associated with re-leasing vacant space and maintaining the condition of our properties. Our recurring capital expenditures by segment are summarized as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively (in thousands):

We classified the operations of 66 buildings as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2007. These 66 buildings consist of 31 industrial and 35 office properties. Of these properties, 15 were sold during the first six months of 2007, 21 were sold during 2006 and 30 operating properties are classified as held-for-sale at June 30, 2007.
The following table illustrates the operations of the buildings reflected in discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively (in thousands):

At June 30, 2007, we classified 30 properties as held-for-sale and included in discontinued operations. Additionally, we have classified 14 in-service properties as held-for-sale, but have included the results of operations of these properties in continuing operations, either based on our present intention to sell the majority of our ownership interest in the properties to entities in which we will retain a minority equity ownership interest or because the results of operations for the properties are immaterial. The following table illustrates the aggregate balance sheet of the aforementioned properties included in discontinued operations, as well as the 14 held-for-sale properties whose results are included in continuing operations, at June 30, 2007 (in thousands):

We allocate interest expense to discontinued operations and have included such interest expense in computing net income from discontinued operations. Interest expense allocable to discontinued operations includes interest on any debt on secured properties included in discontinued operations and an allocable share of our consolidated unsecured interest expense for unencumbered properties. The allocation of unsecured interest expense to discontinued operations was based upon the gross book value of the discontinued operations unencumbered population as it related to our entire unencumbered population.
9. Financial Instruments
We are exposed to capital market risk, such as changes in interest rates. In order to manage the volatility relating to interest rate risk, we may enter into interest rate hedging arrangements from time to time. We do not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
In August 2005, we entered into $300.0 million of cash flow hedges through forward-starting interest rate swaps to hedge interest rates on $300.0 million of estimated debt offerings in 2007. The swaps qualify for hedge accounting, with any change in fair value recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). At June 30, 2007, the fair value of these swaps was approximately $21.2 million in an asset position as the effective rates of the swaps were lower than current interest rates at June 30, 2007. The ineffective portion of the hedge was insignificant.
The effectiveness of our hedges will be evaluated throughout their lives using the hypothetical derivative method under which the change in fair value of the actual swap designated as the hedging instrument is compared to the change in fair value of a hypothetical swap.
10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48) on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 resulted in an additional tax exposure of approximately $1.7 million recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of Distributions in Excess of Net Income. Our uncertain tax positions are immaterial both individually and in the aggregate primarily due to our tax status as a REIT.
12
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this statement will have on the Company.
In January 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Options for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 provides a Fair Value Option under which a company may irrevocably elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain financial assets and liabilities. This Fair Value Option will be available on a contract-by-contract basis with changes in fair value recognized in earnings as those changes occur. The effective date for SFAS 159 is the beginning of each reporting entitys first fiscal year end that begins after November 15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on the Company.

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

Business Overview
We are a self-administered and self-managed REIT that began operations through a related entity in 1972. As of June 30, 2007, we:
· Owned or jointly controlled 726 industrial, office and retail properties (including properties under development), consisting of approximately 116.9 million square feet; and
· Owned or jointly controlled approximately 7,500 acres of land with an estimated future development potential of more than 111 million square feet of industrial, office and retail properties.
We provide the following services for our properties and for certain properties owned by third parties and joint ventures:
· Property leasing;
· Property management;
· Construction;
· Development; and
· Other tenant-related services.
Acquisitions
In February 2007, we closed on the acquisition of Bremner Healthcare Real Estate (Bremner), a national health care development and management firm. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand our development capabilities within the health care real estate market.
The initial consideration paid to the sellers totaled $47.1 million and the sellers will be eligible for further contingent payments over the next three years.
Approximately $39.1 million of the total purchase price is allocated to goodwill, which is attributable to the value of Bremners overall development capabilities and its in-place workforce.
Key Performance Indicators
Our operating results depend primarily upon rental income from our office and industrial properties (Rental Operations). The following highlights the areas of Rental Operations that we consider critical for future revenue growth. All square footage totals and occupancy percentages reflect both wholly owned properties and properties in joint ventures.
Occupancy Analysis: Our ability to maintain occupancy rates is a principal driver of our results of operations. The following table sets forth occupancy information regarding our in-service portfolio of rental properties (excluding in-service properties developed or acquired with the intent to sell) as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively (in thousands, except percentage data):

Note: Excludes buildings that are in the held-for-sale portfolio.
We renewed 85.2% and 84.0% of our leases up for renewal in the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, totaling approximately 3.7 million and 5.6 million square feet, respectively. This compares to renewals of 80.9% and 78.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, totaling approximately 1.9 million and 3.8 million square feet, respectively. We attained 3.7% and 4.2% growth in net effective rents on these renewals in the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.
The average term of renewals for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 was 4.8 and 4.4 years, respectively, compared to an average term of 4.0 and 3.5 years for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively.
Future Development: Another source of growth in earnings is the development of additional properties. These properties should provide future earnings through income upon sale or from Rental Operations growth as they are placed in service. We had 12.7 million square feet of property under development with total estimated costs of $1.2 billion at June 30, 2007 compared to 8.7 million square feet with total costs of $772.9 million at June 30, 2006.

Acquisition and Disposition Activity: We continued to selectively dispose of non-strategic properties during the six months ended June 30, 2007. Gross sales proceeds related to the dispositions of wholly owned held-for-rental properties were $213.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, which included the disposition of a portfolio of eight office properties in the Cleveland market. Our share of proceeds from sales of properties within unconsolidated joint ventures, in which we have a less than 100% interest, totaled $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, proceeds from the disposition of wholly owned held-for-rental properties totaled $25.3 million, as well as proceeds of $72.6 million for our share of property sales from unconsolidated joint ventures. Dispositions of wholly owned properties developed for sale rather than rental resulted in $78.3 million in proceeds for the six months ended June 30, 2007, and no dispositions of wholly owned properties developed for sale took place in the six months ended June 30, 2006.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, in addition to the acquisition of Bremner, we acquired $46.1 million of income producing properties and also acquired $125.9 million of undeveloped land, compared to acquisitions of $886.3 million of income producing properties and $284.2 million of undeveloped land in the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Funds From Operations
Funds From Operations (FFO) is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental operating performance measure of an equity REIT like Duke. FFO is calculated in accordance with the definition that was adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from net income determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure developed by NAREIT to compare the operating performance of REITs. The most comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). FFO should not be considered as a substitute for net income or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measure of other companies.
17
Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry analysts and investors have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents GAAP net income (loss), excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus certain non-cash items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Management believes that the use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and makes comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management believes FFO is a useful measure for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance (although FFO should be reviewed in conjunction with net income which remains the primary measure of performance) because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO provides a useful comparison of the operating performance of our real estate between periods or as compared to different companies.
The following table shows a reconciliation of net income available for common shareholders to the calculation of FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively (in thousands):

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 to Three Months Ended June 30, 2006
Rental Income From Continuing Operations
Overall, rental income from continuing operations increased from $185.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 to $189.7 million for the same period in 2007. The following table reconciles rental income from continuing operations by reportable segment to our total reported rental income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively (in thousands):

The following factors contributed to these results:
· Lease termination fees decreased from $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2006 to $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2007.
· We acquired 35 properties and placed 34 developments in service from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007 that provided incremental revenues of $11.1 million in the second quarter of 2007, as compared to the same period in 2006.
· We acquired an additional 30 properties in the first six months of 2006 and later contributed them to an unconsolidated joint venture, resulting in a $13.7 million reduction in revenues in the second quarter of 2007, as compared to the same period in 2006. Of these properties, 23 were contributed in the fourth quarter of 2006 and seven were contributed in the second quarter of 2007.
· The remaining net increase in rental revenues in the second quarter of 2007 is primarily the result of an increase in average occupancy from the second quarter of 2006 as well as an increase in revenue from reimbursable rental expenses.

The overall $91,000 increase in rental expenses was driven by the offsetting effects of an increase in rental expenses of $1.8 million from properties acquired and developments placed in service from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007 and a reduction in rental expenses resulting from the contribution of 30 properties to an unconsolidated joint venture.
Of the overall $2.0 million increase in real estate taxes, $1.3 million was attributable to properties acquired and developments placed in service from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007. The remaining increase in real estate taxes was driven by increases in assessments by municipal authorities in some of our markets.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased from $42.2 million in the second quarter of 2006 to $39.2 million in the second quarter of 2007 primarily as a result of a decrease in borrowings on our unsecured line of credit, in addition to assigning secured debt to unconsolidated companies on property that was contributed to those entities during the quarter. This was offset to an extent by borrowings that occurred in the last half of 2006, including $575.0 million of exchangeable senior notes issued in November 2006 and $319.0 million of secured debt issued in November 2006. These increased borrowings were used mainly to fund acquisitions and development.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased from $59.4 million during the second quarter of 2006 to $65.9 million for the same period in 2007 due to increases in our held-for-rental asset base from acquisitions and developments during 2006 and 2007.
20
Service Operations
Service Operations primarily consist of sales of properties developed or acquired with the intent to sell within a short period of time and the leasing, management, construction and development services for joint venture properties and properties owned by third parties. These operations are heavily influenced by the current state of the economy, as leasing and management fees are dependent upon occupancy while construction and development services rely on the expansion of business operations. Service Operations earnings increased from $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to $12.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, primarily as a result of gains on the sale of three properties totaling $6.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to no such sales during the same period in 2006.
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expenses increased from $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to $10.6 million for the same period in 2007. General and administrative expenses are comprised of two components. The first component is direct expenses that are not attributable to specific assets such as legal fees, external audit fees, marketing costs, investor relations expenses and other corporate overhead. The second component is the unallocated overhead costs associated with the operation of our owned properties and Service Operations, including construction, leasing and maintenance operations. Those overhead costs not allocated to these operations are charged to general and administrative expenses. The overall increase in general and administrative expenses is a result of an increase in the overall pool of overhead costs necessitated by our overall growth, offset in part by an increase in the amount of overhead allocated to other areas in 2007, primarily construction and leasing due to increases in wholly-owned and third-party activity in these areas.
Other Income and Expenses
We pursue opportunities to dispose of land in markets with a high concentration of undeveloped land and those markets where the land no longer meets our strategic development plans.
Earnings from sale of land, net of impairment adjustments, are comprised of the following amounts for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively (in thousands):

We sold seven parcels of undeveloped land in the second quarter of 2007 with overall higher margins than the four land sales in the second quarter of 2006.
21
Discontinued Operations
The results of operations for properties sold during the year or designated as held-for-sale to unrelated parties at the end of the period are required to be classified as discontinued operations. The property specific components of net earnings that are classified as discontinued operations include rental revenues, rental expenses, real estate taxes, allocated interest expense, depreciation expense and minority interest, as well as the net gain or loss on the disposition of properties.
We classified the operations of 66 buildings as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2007. These 66 buildings consist of 31 industrial and 35 office properties. As a result, we classified net income from operations, net of minority interest, of $856,000 and $5.7 million as net income from discontinued operations for each of the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Of these properties, five were sold during the second quarter of 2007 and three were sold during the second quarter of 2006. The gains on disposal of these properties, net of minority interest, of $19.0 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, are also reported in discontinued operations.
Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 to Six Months Ended June 30, 2006
Rental Income From Continuing Operations
Overall, rental income from continuing operations increased from $360.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 to $388.0 million for the same period in 2007.

Of the overall $6.3 million increase in rental expenses, $4.0 million was attributable to properties acquired and developments placed in service from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007. This increase was slightly offset by a reduction in rental expenses of $1.7 million resulting from the contribution of 30 properties to an unconsolidated joint venture. Inclement weather conditions in the first quarter of 2007 and normal inflationary factors triggered the remaining increase in rental expenses.
Of the overall $5.7 million increase in real estate taxes, $2.6 million was attributable to properties acquired and developments placed in service from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007. The remaining increase in real estate taxes was driven by increases in assessments by municipal authorities in some of our markets.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased from $77.5 million for the first six months ended June 30, 2006 to $82.4 million for the same period in 2007 primarily due to borrowings that occurred in the last half of 2006, including $575.0 million of exchangeable senior notes issued in November 2006 and $319.0 million of secured debt issued in November 2006. These increased borrowings were used mainly to fund acquisitions and development.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased from $114.3 million for the first half of 2006 to $131.0 million for the same period in 2007 due to increases in the held-for-rental asset base from acquisitions and developments during 2006 and 2007.
Service Operations
Service Operations primarily consist of sales of properties developed or acquired with the intent to sell within a short period of time and the leasing, management, construction and development services for joint venture properties and properties owned by third parties. These operations are heavily influenced by the current state of the economy, as leasing and management fees are dependent upon occupancy while construction and development services rely on the expansion of business operations. Service Operations earnings increased from $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 to $19.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily as a result of gains on the sale of five properties totaling $9.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to no such sales during the six months ended June 30, 2006.

We sold 13 parcels of undeveloped land in the first six months of 2007 with overall higher margins than the nine land sales in the first six months of 2006. In addition, we recognized a deferred gain of approximately $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2007 on a property sold during 2006.
Discontinued Operations
The results of operations for properties sold during the year or designated as held-for-sale to unrelated parties at the end of the period are required to be classified as discontinued operations. The property specific components of net earnings that are classified as discontinued operations include rental revenues, rental expenses, real estate taxes, allocated interest expense, depreciation expense and minority interest, as well as the net gain or loss on the disposition of properties.
We classified the operations of 66 buildings as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2007. These 66 buildings consist of 31 industrial and 35 office properties. As a result, we classified net income from operations, net of minority interest, of $2.1 million and $7.6 million as net income from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Of these properties, 15 were sold during the first six months of 2007 and five were sold during the first six months of 2006. The gains on disposal of these properties, net of minority interest, of $67.3 million and $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, are also reported in discontinued operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
We expect to continue to meet our short-term liquidity requirements over the next 12 months, including payments of dividends and distributions, as well as recurring capital expenditures relating to maintaining our current real estate assets, primarily through the following:
· working capital;
· net cash provided by operating activities; and
· proceeds received from real estate dispositions.
Although we historically have not used any other sources of funds to pay for recurring capital expenditures on our current real estate investments, we may rely on the temporary use of borrowings or property disposition proceeds to fund such expenditures during periods of high leasing volume.
We expect to meet long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled mortgage debt maturities, refinancing of long-term debt, preferred share redemptions, the retirement of unsecured notes and amounts outstanding under the unsecured credit facility, property acquisitions, financing of development activities and other non-recurring capital improvements, primarily through the following sources:
· issuance of additional equity, including common and preferred shares;
· issuance of additional debt securities, including convertible debt instruments;
· undistributed cash provided by operating activities, if any; and
· proceeds received from real estate dispositions.
We believe our principal source of liquidity, cash flows from Rental Operations, provides a stable source of cash to fund operational expenses. We believe that this cash-based revenue stream is substantially aligned with revenue recognition (except for periodic straight-line rental income accruals and amortization of above or below market rents) as cash receipts from the leasing of rental properties are generally received in advance of or a short time following the actual revenue recognition.
We are subject to risks of decreased occupancy through market conditions, as well as tenant defaults and bankruptcies, and potential reduction in rental rates upon renewal or re-letting of properties, each of which would result in reduced cash flow from operations. However, we believe that these risks may be mitigated by our relatively strong market presence in most of our locations and the fact that we perform in-house credit review and analysis on major tenants and all significant leases before they are executed.
Credit Facilities
We had an unsecured line of credit available as of June 30, 2007, described as follows (dollars in thousands):

$ |

|
We use this line of credit to fund development activities, acquire additional rental properties and provide working capital.
The line of credit provides us with an option to obtain borrowings from financial institutions that participate in the line, at rates lower than the stated interest rate, subject to certain restrictions. Interest rates on the amounts outstanding on the unsecured line of credit as of June 30, 2007 range from LIBOR + .16% to LIBOR + .525% (equal to 5.480% and 5.845% as of June 30, 2007).
25
The line of credit also contains financial covenants that require us to meet financial ratios and defined levels of performance, including those related to variable rate indebtedness, consolidated net worth and debt-to-market capitalization. As of June 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under our line of credit.
Debt and Equity Securities
At June 30, 2007, we had on file with the SEC an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3, relating to the offer and sale, from time to time, of an indeterminate amount of debt securities (including guarantees thereof), common shares, preferred shares, depository shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts and units comprised of one or more of the securities described therein. From time to time, we expect to issue additional securities under this new automatic registration statement to fund development and acquisition of additional rental properties and to fund the repayment of the credit facility and other long-term debt upon maturity.
The indenture governing our unsecured notes also requires us to comply with financial ratios and other covenants regarding our operations. We were in compliance with all such covenants as of June 30, 2007.
Sale of Real Estate Assets
We utilize sales of real estate assets as an additional source of liquidity. We pursue opportunities to sell real estate assets at favorable prices to capture value created by us, as well as to improve the overall quality of our portfolio by recycling sales proceeds into new properties with greater value creation opportunities.
Uses of Liquidity
Our principal uses of liquidity include the following:
· property investments;
· recurring leasing/capital costs;
· dividends and distributions to shareholders and unitholders;
· long-term debt maturities; and
· other contractual obligations.
Property Investment
We evaluate development and acquisition opportunities based upon market outlook, supply and long-term growth potential.
Recurring Expenditures
One of our principal uses of our liquidity is to fund the development, acquisition and recurring leasing/capital expenditures of our real estate investments.

Historical Cash Flows
Cash and cash equivalents were $45.5 million and $7.0 million at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The following highlights significant changes in net cash associated with our operating, investing and financing activities (in millions):

Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities provide the cash necessary to meet normal operational requirements of our Rental Operations and Service Operation activities. The receipt of rental income from Rental Operations continues to provide the primary source of our revenues and operating cash flows. In addition, we develop buildings with the intent to sell them at or soon after completion, which provides another significant source of operating cash flow activity. Highlights of such activity are as follows:
· During the six month period ended June 30, 2007, we incurred Service Operations buildings development costs of $188.8 million, compared to $93.9 million for the same period ended June 30, 2006. The difference is reflective of the increased activity in our held-for-sale pipeline. The pipeline of held-for-sale projects under construction as of June 30, 2007 has anticipated total costs upon completion of $561.3 million.
· We had no Service Operation sales in the first six months of 2006. We sold five Service Operations buildings in the first six months of 2007, receiving net proceeds of $76.6 million and recognized pre-tax gains of $9.2 million.
27
Investing Activities
Investing activities are one of the primary uses of our liquidity. Development and acquisition activities typically generate additional rental revenues and provide cash flows for operational requirements. Highlights of significant cash sources and uses are as follows:
· Development costs increased to $186.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 from $167.7 million for the same period in 2006 as a result of an increase in development activity in 2007.
· During the first six months of 2007, we paid cash of $81.1 million for real estate acquisitions, including $36.1 million for the Bremner acquisition (with the remaining $11.0 million paid through the issuance of units in Duke Realty Limited Partnership) and $125.9 million for undeveloped land acquisitions compared to $675.7 million in real estate acquisitions and $284.6 million in acquisitions of undeveloped land in the same period in 2006. The most significant activity in the first six months of 2006 consisted of the purchase of a portfolio of suburban office and light industrial properties and undeveloped land in the Washington, D.C. area for $865.6 million (of which $713.8 million was paid in cash) and the purchase of the majority of a portfolio of industrial properties in Savannah, Georgia for $178.1 million (of which $119.3 million was paid in cash).
· Sales of land and depreciated property provided $269.4 million in net proceeds for the period ended June 30, 2007, compared to $29.7 million for the same period in 2006. We continue to dispose of non-strategic and older properties as part of our capital recycling program to fund acquisitions and new development while improving the overall quality of our investment portfolio.
· We received financing distributions (as a result of the sale of properties or recapitalization) of $195.4 million from unconsolidated companies for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, compared to $21.2 million for the same period in 2006.
Financing Activities
The overall decline in cash provided by (used for) financing activities is a result of the short-term financing that was required for the significant acquisitions in the first quarter of 2006. Specifically, the following items highlight major fluctuations in net cash flow related to financing activities in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006:
· We had no significant new borrowings in the first six months of 2007, compared to a $700.0 million secured term loan obtained in the same period in 2006, which was priced at LIBOR +.525% and was paid in full later in 2006.
· Similarly, while in the first six months of 2006 we received net proceeds of approximately $177.7 million and $106.3 million, respectively, from the issuances of our Series M and Series N Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares, we had no new preferred equity issuances in the same period in 2007.
· We increased net borrowings on our $1.0 billion line of credit by $123.0 million and $287.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
28
Financial Instruments
We are exposed to capital market risk, such as changes in interest rates. In order to manage the volatility relating to interest rate risk, we may enter into interest rate hedging arrangements from time to time. We do not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
In August 2005, we entered into $300.0 million of cash flow hedges through forward-starting interest rate swaps to hedge interest rates on $300.0 million of estimated debt offerings in 2007. The swaps qualify for hedge accounting, with any changes in fair value recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). At June 30, 2007, the fair value of these swaps was approximately $21.2 million in an asset position as the effective rates of the swaps were lower than current interest rates at June 30, 2007. The ineffective portion of the hedge was insignificant.
The effectiveness of our hedges will be evaluated throughout their lives using the hypothetical derivative method under which the change in fair value of the actual swap designated as the hedging instrument is compared to the change in the fair value of a hypothetical swap.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48) on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 resulted in an additional tax exposure of approximately $1.7 million recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of Distributions in Excess of Net Income. Our uncertain tax positions are immaterial both individually and in the aggregate primarily due to our tax status as a REIT.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this statement will have on the Company.
In January 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Options for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 provides a Fair Value Option under which a company may irrevocably elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain financial assets and liabilities. This Fair Value Option will be available on a contract-by-contract basis with changes in fair value recognized in earnings as those changes occur. The effective date for SFAS 159 is the beginning of each reporting entitys first fiscal year end that begins after November 15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on the Company.
Investments in Unconsolidated Companies
We analyze our investments in joint ventures under FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46(R)), to determine if each joint venture is a variable interest entity (a VIE, as defined by FIN 46(R)) and would require consolidation. To the extent that our joint ventures do not qualify as VIEs, we further assess under the guidelines of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 04-5, Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity when the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights (EITF 04-5); Statement of Position 78-9, Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures; Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements and FASB No. 94, Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries, to determine if the venture should be consolidated.
29
We have equity interests in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures that own and operate rental properties and hold land for development. The equity method of accounting is used for these investments in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over operating and financial policies. As a result, the assets and liabilities of these joint ventures are not included on our balance sheet. Our investment in unconsolidated companies represents approximately 7% of our total assets as of June 30, 2007.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our line of credit, preferred shares and long-term debt used to maintain liquidity and fund capital expenditures and expansion of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we borrow primarily at fixed rates and may enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, caps and treasury locks in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. We do not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. For a discussion of the market risk with respect to our outstanding cash flow hedges, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsLiquidity and Capital ResourcesFinancial Instruments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures are further designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based upon the foregoing, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in all material respects.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
30
From time to time, we are parties to a variety of legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of our businesses. While these matters generally are covered by insurance, there is no assurance that our insurance will cover any particular proceeding or claim. We presently believe that all of these proceedings to which we were subject as of June 30, 2007, taken as a whole, will not have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, business, financial condition or results of operations.
In addition to the information set forth in this Report, you also should carefully review and consider the information contained in our other reports and periodic filings that we make with the SEC, including, without limitation, the information contained under the caption Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, and in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed after the date of such Annual Report. Those risk factors could materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The risks that we describe in our public filings are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we presently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
(a) Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
None
(b) Use of Proceeds
None
(c) Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
From time to time, we repurchase our common shares under a $750 million repurchase program that initially was approved by the board of directors and publicly announced in October 2001 (the Repurchase Program). In July 2005, the board of directors authorized management to purchase up to $750 million of common shares pursuant to this plan. Under the Repurchase Program, we also execute share repurchases on an ongoing basis associated with certain employee elections under our compensation and benefit programs.

Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities
During the period covered by this Report, we did not default under the terms of any of our material indebtedness, nor has there been any material arrearage of dividends or other material uncured delinquency with respect to any class of our preferred shares.
