To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Gyrodyne Company of America, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses of
Cortlandt Manor Medical Center located in Cortlandt Manor, New York (the
"Property") for the year ended December 31, 2007. This statement is the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on this statement based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement is
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the statement. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the statement.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion
in the Current Report on form 8-K/A of Gyrodyne Company of America, Inc.) as
described in Note 1 and is not intended to be a complete representation of the
Property's revenue and expenses.

In our opinion, the statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material
respects, the revenue and certain expenses described in Note 1 of the Cortlandt
Manor Medical Center for the year ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

               Notes to Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses


1.   BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses (the "Statements")
include the operations of the Cortlandt Manor Medical Center (the "Property")
for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the three months ended March 31, 2008.
The Property was acquired by Gyrodyne Company of America, Inc. (the "Company")
on June 2, 2008, for $7.0 million. The Property is a 29,811 square-foot
(unaudited) multi-tenant five building complex located in Cortlandt Manor, NY.

The accompanying Statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting. The Statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and for
inclusion in the current reports on Form 8-K of the Company as required by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, Regulation S-X, Rule 3-14. The Statements
are not intended to be a complete presentation of the actual operations of the
Property for the year ended December 31, 2007 and for the three months ended
March 31, 2008. Expenses excluded relate to the Property's management fees,
depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense and other costs not
directly related to the future operations of the Property.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Real Estate

Costs related to the acquisition of and improvements to the Property and related
equipment are capitalized. Expenditures related to repairs and maintenance are
expensed as incurred.

Revenue Recognition

Rental revenues are recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the
leases. Reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes and other recoverable
operating expenses are recognized as revenue in the period the applicable
expenses are incurred.

Property Operating Expenses

Property operating expenses represent the direct expenses of operating the
Property and include maintenance, utilities, repairs and insurance costs that
are expected to continue in the ongoing operation of the Property.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions of the reported amounts of revenues and certain
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Interim Statements

The statement for the three months ended March 31, 2008 is unaudited and has
been presented for informational purposes; however, in the opinion of the
Company's management, all significant adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the Statement for the interim period have been included. The
Company is not aware of any other material factors relating to the Property that
would cause the reported financial information not to be indicative of the
operating results.
