Malan Realty Investors Announces Results for the Second Quarter of 2000

    BINGHAM FARMS, Mich., July 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Malan Realty Investors, Inc.
(NYSE: MAL), a self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT), today
announced a deficit in total funds from operations (FFO) in the second quarter
of 2000.  The company previously announced it would incur nonrecurring
expenses in the quarter associated with the recent proxy contest and the
resulting change in control.
    For the quarter ended June 30, 2000, Malan incurred a deficit in FFO of
$1.6 million or 31 cents per basic share vs. FFO of $2.6 million or 50 cents
per basic share for the quarter ended June 30, 1999.  FFO on a diluted basis
(assuming conversion of convertible debt securities and inclusion of other
common stock equivalents) was $67,000 or 1 cent per share in the second
quarter of 2000 vs. $4.3 million or 46 cents per share in the second quarter
of 1999.  Total revenues (excluding a gain on the sale of property of
approximately $3.2 million), consisting primarily of rent and recoveries from
tenants, were $10.1 million in the second quarter of 2000 vs. $10.8 million in
the second quarter of 1999.
    Included in the FFO for the second quarter of 2000 were nonrecurring
expenses totaling approximately $3.4 million.  This included approximately
$775,000 in expenses for the proxy contest and $2.6 million incurred for lump-
sum payments and accrued future health insurance benefits as part of change of
control agreements with the company's three executive officers.  The company
noted that although these expenses are nonrecurring in nature, the October
1999 White Paper issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trusts (NAREIT) requires that these items be included in the calculation of
FFO.  The White Paper excludes from FFO calculations extraordinary items as
defined under generally accepted accounting principles, as well as gains and
losses from sales of depreciable operating property.
    For the six months ended June 30, 2000, FFO was $986,000 or 19 cents per
basic share vs. $4.9 million or 95 cents per basic share for the six months
ended June 30, 1999.  FFO on a diluted basis was $4.3 million or 46 cents per
share for the first six months of 2000 vs. $8.3 million or 89 cents per share
for the first six months of 1999.  Total revenues (excluding gains on property
sales of approximately $3.2 million) were $21.2 million for the first half of
2000 compared with $21.8 million (excluding a gain on a property sale of
approximately $1.8 million) in the first half of 1999.
    FFO for 1999 has been restated to reflect a previously announced change in
the company's method of accounting for contingent (percentage) rents applied
retroactively to January 1, 1999 pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No.
101 issued in December 1999.
    "The quarter's results, given the expenses taken for a situation that is
thankfully behind us, are not indicative of our potential going forward," said
Malan Chairman Paul Gray.  "The board and management together are pursuing
several strategies for strengthening the portfolio that we believe will result
in enhanced shareholder value."
    During the quarter, Malan completed the sale of a 117,255 square-foot
shopping center in Manchester, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis.  Net proceeds
to the company, after payment of debt and transaction fees, were approximately
$5.0 million.
    Malan Realty Investors, Inc. owns, acquires, redevelops and manages
properties that are leased primarily to national and regional retail
companies.  The company owns a portfolio of 64 properties located in 9 states
that contains an aggregate of approximately 5.9 million square feet of GLA.
    Safe Harbor Statement: Certain statements in this release regarding
anticipated operating results are forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Although the
company believes the statements and projections are based upon reasonable
assumptions, actual results may differ from those projected.  Key factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially include economic downturns,
successful and timely completion of acquisitions, renovations and development
