MONMOUTH REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

MARCH 31, 2008

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICY

Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, MRC I LLC, MREIC Financial, Inc., and Monmouth Capital Corporation (the Company or we) operate as a real estate investment trust (REIT) deriving its income primarily from real estate rental operations. In addition, the Company owns a majority interest in three limited liability companies of which the Company consolidates their results of operations and financial condition. The Company also owns a portfolio of investment securities.

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), and intends to maintain its qualification as a REIT in the future. As a qualified REIT, with limited exceptions, the Company will not be taxed under Federal and certain state income tax laws at the corporate level on taxable income that it distributes to its shareholders. For special tax provisions applicable to REITs, refer to Sections 856-860 of the Code. The Company is subject to franchise taxes in some of the states in which the Company owns property.

The interim consolidated financial statements furnished herein include the Company and subsidiaries, and reflect all adjustments which were, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of March 31, 2008 and for all periods presented. All adjustments made in the interim period were of a normal recurring nature. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report of Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation for the year ended September 30, 2007 have been omitted.

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the prior periods presented have been reclassified to conform to the financial statement presentation for the current year.

Employee Stock Options

The Company accounts for stock options in accordance with SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123R). The Company has selected the prospective method of adoption under the provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, Transition and Disclosure.” SFAS 123R requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and amortized over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period). This compensation cost is determined using option pricing models, intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date. Compensation costs of $8,626 and $29,238 have been recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively and $10,504 and $58,476 have been recognized in the six months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

On July 26, 2007, the shareholders approved and ratified the Company’s 2007 Stock Option Plan (the 2007 Plan) authorizing the grant to officers and key employees of options to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock.

During the six months ended March 31, 2008, the following stock options were granted:


Date of Grant	Number of Employees	Number of Shares	Option Price	Expiration Date

12/12/07	1	65,000	$8.22	12/12/15
03/10/08	10	180,000	7.80	03/10/16

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in the following year:


			2008

	Dividend yield		7.59%
	Expected volatility		15.08%
	Risk-free interest rate		3.20%
	Expected lives		8

The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the six months ended March 31, 2008 was $0.26 and $-0-, respectively.

During the six months ended March 31, 2008, one participant exercised options to purchase 14,000 shares for total proceeds of $99,820. As of March 31, 2008, there were options to purchase 1,332,170 shares outstanding under the 2007 plan.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards pertaining to ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of any retained noncontrolling equity investment when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. This statement also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is evaluating the impact of SFAS 160 but does not believe that the adoption of this statement will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why derivative instruments are used, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is evaluating the impact of SFAS 161 but does not believe that the adoption of this statement will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

NOTE 2 – MERGER WITH MONMOUTH CAPITAL CORPORATION (MONMOUTH CAPITAL)

On July 31, 2007, the Company merged with Monmouth Capital, which had a controlling equity interest in fourteen industrial properties. The results of operations of the real estate acquired from Monmouth Capital have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the merger date of July 31, 2007. Please see additional disclosures related to the merger contained in the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report of Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation for the year ended September 30, 2007.

Management has finalized its aggregate purchase price allocation to the tangible and intangible net assets, as follows:


Real estate investments		$84,450,220
Intangible assets		5,108,304
Securities available for sale		3,522,668
Cash		1,204,754
Notes receivable		544,467
Other assets		29,069
Mortgages		(40,355,224)
Convertible subordinated debentures		(14,990,000)
Notes payable		(1,707,475)
Accrued and other liabilities		(835,477)
Minority interest		(3,001,255)
Total allocated Purchase Price to net assets acquired		$33,970,051

NOTE 3 – NET INCOME APPLICABLE TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS PER SHARE

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income applicable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income applicable to common shareholders plus interest expense related to the Convertible Subordinated Debentures (Debentures) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the weighted-average number of net shares that would be issued upon exercise of stock options pursuant to the treasury stock method, plus the number of shares resulting from the possible conversion of the Debentures during the period. Interest expense of $299,800 and $599,600 and common shares totaling 1,413,319 related to potential conversion of the Debentures are excluded from the calculation for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, due to their antidilutive effect. Options to purchase shares in the amount of 48,336 and 96,171 are included in the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Options to purchase shares in the amount of 60,052 and 75,604 are included in the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the six months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto provided elsewhere herein and the Company’s September 30, 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company is a REIT. The Company’s primary business is the ownership and management of industrial buildings subject to long-term leases to investment-grade tenants. As of March 31, 2008, the Company owns fifty-eight industrial properties and one shopping center with total square footage of approximately 5,966,000. Total real estate investments were approximately $333,370,000 at March 31, 2008. These properties are located in twenty-six states. As of March 31, 2008, the Company’s weighted average lease expiration term was 5.2 years and the percent of square footage leased and occupied was 98%. The Company’s average rent per square foot for fiscal 2008 is approximately $5.42.

Total acquisitions of real estate made during fiscal year 2008 to date were approximately $10,500,000. Management intends to grow the Company’s real estate portfolio and expects to acquire additional properties in fiscal 2008. On July 31, 2007, the Company merged with Monmouth Capital Corporation and acquired a controlling interest in fourteen industrial properties.

The Company has a concentration of FDX and FDX subsidiary-leased properties. As of March 31, 2008, the percentage of FDX-leased square footage as a total of the Company’s rental space was 43%. Annualized rental income and occupancy charges from FDX and FDX subsidiaries are estimated at approximately 49% of total rental and reimbursement revenue for fiscal 2008.

The Company’s revenue primarily consists of rental and reimbursement revenue from the ownership of industrial rental property. Rental and reimbursement revenue increased 40% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and increased 43% for the six months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2007. The increases in rental and reimbursement revenue are due mainly to rent and reimbursements from the property acquisitions made during fiscal 2007 and from the merger with Monmouth Capital Corporation on July 31, 2007.

The Company also holds a portfolio of securities of other REITs valued at approximately $15,150,000 as of March 31, 2008 which earns dividend and interest income. During the six months ended March 31, 2008, the Company recorded impairment losses of $2,526,077 related to five securities which management believed to be other than temporarily impaired. In addition, the Company experienced a decrease of $998,596 in the unrealized gain on securities for the six months ended March 31, 2008. This decrease is related to the overall decrease in market value of REIT securities. The Company invests in REIT securities on margin from time to time when the Company can achieve an adequate yield spread. The REIT securities portfolio provides the Company with liquidity and additional income until suitable acquisitions of real property are found.

The Company also recorded losses of $1,088,779 for the six months ended March 31, 2008 on the Company’s investments in futures contracts. The Company invests in futures contracts of ten-year treasury notes with the objective of reducing the risks of rolling over its fixed-rate mortgages at higher interest rates and reducing the exposure of the preferred equity and debt securities portfolio to interest rate fluctuations.

Net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders decreased $888,793 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and decreased $3,266,805 for the six months ended March 31, 2008 and compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007. The decrease in net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders is due mainly to losses of $706,777 and $2,526,077 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008, respectively related to securities deemed to be other than temporarily impaired, and losses of $650,561 and $1,088,779 for the three and six months

ended March 31, 2008, respectively related to the Company’s future contracts. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in income from property operations.

See PART I, Item 1 – Business in the Company’s September 30, 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more complete discussion of the economic and industry-wide factors relevant to the Company and the opportunities and challenges, and risks on which the Company is focused.

Changes in Results of Operations

As of March 31, 2008, the Company owned fifty-nine properties with total square footage of approximately 5,966,000 as compared to forty-three properties with square footage of approximately 4,733,000 as of March 31, 2007. As of March 31, 2008, the Company’s weighted average lease expiration term was 5.2 years. The Company’s occupancy rate was 98% and 83% as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The Company made the following property acquisitions during the six months ended March 31, 2008:


Acquisition Date	Location	Square Footage	Purchase Price	Tenant	Average Annual Rent	Annual Rent/PSF	Lease Expires

11/30/07	Cocoa, FL	89,101	$10,450,000	FedEx Ground	$738,500	$8.28	7/31/17

Rental and reimbursement revenue increased $2,797,035 or 40% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and increased $5,863,704 or 43% for the six months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2007. The increase is due mainly to the rent and accrued tenant reimbursement revenue related to the acquisition of the fourteen industrial properties acquired from the merger with Monmouth Capital Corporation on July 31, 2007.

Real estate taxes increased $135,274 or 11% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and increased $430,805 or 19% for the six months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2007. Operating expenses increased $570,968 or 119% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and increased $1,082,812 or 110% for the six months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2007. The increase is due mainly to the real estate taxes and operating expenses related to the acquisition of the fourteen industrial properties acquired from the merger with Monmouth Capital Corporation on July 31, 2007.

General and administrative expense increased $113,553 or 17% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and increased $189,468 or 15% for the six months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2007. The increase is due mainly to increased salary and employee benefits and certain ongoing general and administrative expenses relating to the operations of Monmouth Capital Corporation such as franchise taxes and other administrative expenses.

Depreciation expense increased $588,609 or 44% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and increased $1,117,990 or 42% for the six months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2007. The increase is due to the depreciation expense related to the properties acquired with the merger of Monmouth Capital Corporation.

The following table summarizes the Company’s gain (loss) on securities transactions for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007:


	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	3/31/08	3/31/07	3/31/08	3/31/07

Gain (loss) on securities transactions, net	($1,131,660)	($37,763)	($3,428,058)	$34,596

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2008, the Company recognized a loss of $706,777 and $2,526,077, respectively, due to writing down of the carrying value of six securities which were considered other than temporarily impaired. In addition, the Company recorded losses from the Company’s investment in futures contacts. The Company invests in futures contracts of ten-year treasury notes with the objective of reducing the risks of rolling over its fixed-rate mortgages at higher interest rates and reducing the exposure of the preferred equity and debt securities portfolio to interest rate fluctuations.

Interest expense increased $1,322,737 or 66% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and increased $2,421,758 or 58% for the six months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2007. The increase is due mainly to the interest related to increased average balance outstanding on loans and interest related to mortgages related to the properties acquired in the merger with Monmouth Capital Corporation on July 31, 2007 and the Monmouth Capital outstanding debentures.

Income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008 reflects the results of operations of the industrial property in Franklin, Massachusetts, that was classified as held for sale. Income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 reflects the results of operations of the South Brunswick, New Jersey and the Franklin, Massachusetts properties.

Changes in Financial Condition

The Company generated net cash from operating activities of $9,858,488 and $6,616,229 for the six months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Real estate investments, net of accumulated depreciation, increased $12,821,828 from September 30, 2007 to March 31, 2008. The increase is due mainly to the purchase of the industrial property in Cocoa, Florida of approximately $10,504,000 and the completion of the expansion of the Wheeling, Illinois property, partially offset by the depreciation expense for the six months ended March 31, 2008. Intangible assets, net decreased $4,883,751 from September 31, 2007 to March 31, 2008. The decrease was due mainly to the finalization of the purchase price allocation related to the Monmouth Capital merger and the amortization of the assets for the six months ended March 31, 2008 of $1,036,751.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $4,796,707 from September 30, 2007 to March 31, 2008. The decrease is due mainly to the payment of construction costs related to the expansions, the payment of dividends, and purchase of securities available for sale.

Securities available for sale increased $1,712,988 from September 30, 2007 to March 31, 2008. The increase is due mainly to purchases of $7,102,464. The increase was offset mainly by the write-down in carrying value of securities deemed to be other than temporarily impaired of $2,526,077, losses on the futures contracts of $1,088,779, sales of securities with original cost of $776,024 and a decrease in the unrealized gain of $998,596.

During the six months ended March 31, 2008, the Company invested in futures contracts of ten-year treasury notes with a notional amount of $9,000,000 with the objective of reducing the risks of rolling over the fixed mortgage debt at higher interest rates and reducing the exposure of the debt securities portfolio to market rate fluctuations. Changes in the market value of these derivatives have been recorded in gain on securities transactions, net with corresponding amounts recorded in other assets or other liabilities on the balance sheet. The fair value of the derivatives as of March 31, 2008 was a liability of $232,032.

Tenant and Other Receivables decreased $628,249 from September 30, 2007 to March 31, 2008. The decrease is due mainly to the collection of real estate tax and other reimbursements from the tenants.

Prepaid expenses increased $512,025 from September 30, 2007 to March 31, 2008. The increase is due mainly to an increase in prepaid real estate taxes and prepaid insurance related to timing of payments. The Company recognizes real estate tax and insurance expense ratably over the fiscal year.

Mortgage notes payable increased $7,696,428 from September 30, 2007 to March 31, 2008. The increase is due to the new mortgages of $7,150,000 on the acquisition of the Cocoa, Florida property and a new $5,500,000 mortgage on the Tampa, Florida property, partially offset by principal repayments during the six months ended March 31, 2008 of $4,953,572.

Loans payable increased $7,383,643 from September 30, 2007 to March 31, 2008. The increase was due to the purchase of the property in Cocoa, Florida and payment of construction costs related to the property expansions.

The Company raised $1,146,554 from the issuance of shares in the DRIP during the six months ended March 31, 2008. Dividends paid on the common stock for the six months ended March 31, 2008 were $7,186,409 of which $912,160 was reinvested. On April 15, 2008, the Company declared a dividend of $0.15 per common share to be paid June 16, 2008 to common shareholders of record as of May 15, 2008.

The Company uses a variety of sources to fund its cash needs in addition to cash generated through operations. The Company may sell marketable securities, borrow on its line of credit, refinance debt, or raise capital through the DRIP or capital markets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities was $9,858,488 and $6,616,229 for the six months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Dividends on common stock paid for the six months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 were $7,186,409 (of which $912,160 was reinvested) and $6,063,898. The Company owned securities available for sale of approximately $15,150,000 subject to margin loans of $1,632,643 as of March 31, 2008. These marketable securities provide the Company with additional liquidity. As of March 31, 2008, the Company owned fifty-nine properties, of which forty-five carried mortgage loans of approximately $182,048,000. The unencumbered properties could be refinanced to raise additional funds. In addition, the Company has approximately $16,700,000 available for acquisitions on its $25,000,000 line of credit as of March 31, 2008. The Company has been raising capital through its DRIP, private placements and public offerings of common and preferred stock and investing in net leased industrial properties. The Company believes that funds generated from operations, and the DRIP, together with the Company’s ability to finance and refinance its properties, will provide sufficient funds to adequately meet its obligations over the next several years.

The Company seeks to invest in well-located, modern buildings leased to credit worthy tenants on long-term leases. In management’s opinion, newly built facilities leased to FDX and its subsidiaries meet these criteria. The Company has a concentration of FDX and FDX subsidiary leased properties. The percentage of FDX leased square footage to the total of the Company’s rental space was 43% as of March 31, 2008. Annualized rental and reimbursement revenue from FDX and FDX subsidiaries is estimated at approximately 49% of total rental and reimbursement revenue for fiscal 2008. FDX is a publicly-owned corporation and information on its financial business operations is readily available to the Company’s shareholders.

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Funds From Operations

Funds from operations (FFO) is defined as net income, excluding gains or losses from sales of depreciable assets, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. FFO should be considered as a supplemental measure of operating performance used by REITs. FFO excludes historical cost depreciation as an expense and may facilitate the comparison of REITs which have different cost basis. The items excluded from FFO are significant components in understanding the Company’s financial performance.

FFO (i) does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles; (ii) should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities; and (iii) is not an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO, as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other REITs.

The Company’s FFO for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 is calculated as follows:
