AMLI Residential Reports Second Quarter Results of Operations and Increases Dividend

    CHICAGO, Aug. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- AMLI Residential Properties Trust
(NYSE: AML) announces today operating results for the second quarter and six
months ended June 30, 2000.  Funds From Operations ("FFO") for the second
quarter were $17,787,000 or $0.72 per common share, compared to $16,322,000,
or $0.66 per common share, for the second quarter 1999, a per share increase
of 9.1%.  FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $33,178,000, or
$1.35 per share, compared to $30,797,000, or $1.25 per share, for the six
months ended June 30, 1999, a per share increase of 8.0%.
    For the quarter ended June 30, 2000, total revenues were $34,097,000 and
net income was $16,094,000.  Total revenues for the year earlier period were
$32,961,000 and net income was $9,089,000.  Basic earnings per common share
for the second quarter 2000 increased to $0.83 from $0.43 in the year earlier
period.  Second quarter diluted earnings per common share increased to $0.76
from $0.43 for the second quarter of 1999.  For the six months ended June 30,
2000, net income was $42,022,000 on total revenues of $64,922,000.  Excluding
the gain from the sale of an interest in Phase I of AMLI at Peachtree City, as
discussed below, second quarter basic and diluted earnings were $0.44 and
$0.43 per share, respectively.  Net income for the year earlier period was
$16,369,000 on $63,414,000 of total revenues.  Basic earnings per common share
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased to $2.25 from $0.75 in the
year earlier period.  Diluted earnings per common share for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 increased to $1.99 from $0.75 for the year earlier period.
Excluding gains from sales of interests in completed apartment communities,
basic and diluted earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $0.77
and $0.76 per share, respectively.
    On a same community basis, including wholly-owned and co-investment
communities, for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 versus the prior year period,
total property revenues rose 1.7%, operating expenses decreased 1.0%, and net
operating income ("NOI") increased 3.3%.  Weighted average occupancy, quarter
over quarter, decreased to 92.5% from 93.6%.
    During the second quarter, AMLI and BPMT (Stichting Bedrijfspensioenfonds
voor de Metaal en Technische Bedrijfstakken), one of Europe's leading pension
funds, announced the formation of a second program to jointly acquire
approximately $260 million of institutional quality multifamily apartment
communities.  In June, AMLI and BPMT purchased AMLI on Frankford (formerly
Jefferson at Frankford), a 582-unit luxury apartment community located in
Dallas, which was the fourth property acquired for the first AMLI/BPMT joint
venture program.
    Also during the quarter, AMLI entered into a joint venture with Prudential
Real Estate Investors to own Phase I of AMLI at Peachtree City in Fayette
County, Georgia and to develop and own Phase II of the community.  The joint
venture is structured such that cash flow and sales proceeds will generally be
shared 80% to Prudential and 20% to AMLI until certain economic benchmarks are
achieved, at which point AMLI will receive an increased portion of the cash
flow and residual interest.  Ground was broken for AMLI at Peachtree City II
in late July.  In connection with the formation of the joint venture on
Phase I, AMLI received a cash distribution of approximately $23 million, as
well as certain compensation for arranging the transaction.
    Additionally, AMLI Residential Construction, an affiliate, sold four land
parcels, all of which closed during June.  Net cash flow from these sales
approximated $5 million and the gains from these sales are included in FFO for
the second quarter.  Also in the second quarter, AMLI completed the initial
lease-up and stabilization of AMLI at Oakhurst North, 464 apartment homes in
Chicago, and AMLI on Spring Mill, 400 apartment homes in Indianapolis.  The
company also broke ground for AMLI at King's Harbor, 300 apartment homes in
Houston.
    Yesterday, the Board of Trustees of AMLI declared a $0.01 increase in the
quarterly dividend to $0.47 per common share for the quarter ended June 30,
2000.  This dividend, which is based on an annual dividend rate of $1.88 per
common share, is payable on August 22, 2000 to all shareholders of record as
of August 11, 2000.
