At September 30, 2004, IORI held a receivable of

$261,000 from TCI, and at December 31 2003 held receivables of $302,000, $367,000, and $261,000 from its advisor Syntek West, Inc. (“SWI”), ARI, and TCI, respectively at December 31, 2003. IORI had payables of $1.7 million to SWI and $602,000 to RRI at September 30, 2004, and a payable of $473,000 to RRI at December 31, 2003. See also NOTE 7. “RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS”.

NOTE 5. NOTES AND INTEREST PAYABLE

In April 2002, IORI sold all of its residential properties to partnerships controlled by Metra Capital, LLC (“Metra”). These properties include: the 60 unit Brighton Court, the 92 unit Del Mar, the 68 unit Enclave, the 280 unit Meridian, the 57 unit Signature, the 114 unit Sinclair, located in Midland, Texas and the 106 unit Treehouse, located in San Antonio, Texas. Innovo Realty, Inc., a subsidiary of Innovo Group, Inc. (“Innovo”) is a limited partner in the partnerships that purchased the properties. Joseph Mizrachi, a former director of ARI, a related party, controls approximately 11.67% of the outstanding common stock of Innovo. The sale constituted 23% of the total assets of IORI as of December 31, 2001. The sales price for the properties totaled $26.2 million. IORI received $5.4 million in cash after the payoff of $16.1 million in debt and various closing costs. Management has determined to account for this sale as a refinancing transaction, in accordance with SFAS No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate.” IORI will continue to report the assets and the new debt incurred by the Metra partnerships on the IORI financial statements. The new debt on the properties totals $21.4 million, bears interest at 7.57% per annum, requires monthly interest only payments of $135,000 and matures in May 2012. IORI also received $5.2 million of 8% non-recourse, non-convertible Series A Preferred Stock (“Preferred Shares”) of Innovo. The transaction is currently the subject of litigation. See ITEM 1. “LEGAL PROCEEDINGS”, under PART II. “OTHER INFORMATION” for further information on this matter.

The dividend on the Preferred Shares will be funded entirely and solely through member distributions from cash flows generated by the operation and subsequent sale of the sold properties. In the event the cash flows for the properties are insufficient to cover the 8% annual dividend, Innovo will have no obligation to cover any shortfall.

The Preferred Shares have a mandatory redemption feature and are redeemable from the cash proceeds received by Innovo from the operation and sale of the properties. All member distributions that are in excess of current and accrued 8% dividends must be used by Innovo to redeem the Preferred Shares. Since redemption of these shares is subject to the above future events, management has elected to record no basis in the Preferred Shares.

As mentioned in Note 2, the Treehouse apartment property (San Antonio) was sold for $5.4 million, the Treehouse apartment property (Irving) was sold for $8.0 million to TCI, a related party, and the Akard Plaza was sold for $3.9 million. All the existing mortgage payable amounts were discharged at the closing.

In 2004, IORI refinanced the following property:

TCI repurchased 100% of the outstanding common shares of Treehouse-IR from IORI for $7.5 million through assumption of debt of $5.0 million plus a transfer of a secured promissory note for $3.0 million on May 24, 2004. This assignment of a promissory note from TCI to IORI was given by Unified Housing of McKinney, LLC (“UHM”) to Transcontinental Eldorado, Inc. Treehouse-IR owns the 153,072 sq.ft. Treehouse Apartments Building in Irving, Texas. See Note 2. “REAL ESTATE”.

On December 30, 2003, Secured Promissory Notes in the amount of $6.3 million and $2.0 million given by Humble to NLP were assigned from ARI to IORI. These assignments were payments on certain intercompany receivables due to IORI.

Returns on Metra Properties. As described more fully in Note 5, IORI sold all of its residential properties during 2002 to partnerships controlled by Metra. The partnership agreement for each of these partnerships states that the Metra Partners, as defined, receive cash flow distributions at least quarterly in an amount sufficient to provide them with a fifteen percent cumulative compounded annual rate of return on their invested capital, as well as a cumulative annual amount of 0.50% of the average outstanding balance of the mortgage indebtedness secured by any of these residential properties. These distributions to the Metra Partners have priority over distributions to any of the other partners.

NOTE 7. OPERATING SEGMENTS

Significant differences among the accounting policies of the operating segments as compared to the Consolidated Financial Statements principally involve the calculation and allocation of general and administrative expenses. Management evaluates the performance of the operating segments and allocates resources to each of them based on their operating income and cash flow. Items of income that are not reflected in the segments are interest, income or (loss) of equity in partnerships, and recovery of loss provision on receivable from related party totaling $997,000 and $2.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, and a negative income of $1,000 and $2.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003. Expenses that are not reflected in the segments are general and administrative expenses, advisory fees, impairment of real estate held for sale, and net income fees totaling $276,000 and $1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, and $522,000 and $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003. Excluded from operating segment assets are assets of $59.5 million at September 30, 2004 and $50.8 million at September 30, 2003, which are not identifiable with an operating segment. There are no intersegment revenues and expenses and all business is conducted in the United States.

Presented below is the operating income and assets of each operating segment.

NOTE 9. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Effective January 1, 2002, IORI adopted Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), which established a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets including discontinued operations. This statement requires that the operations related to properties that have been sold, or properties that are intended to be sold, be presented as discontinued operations in the statement of operations for all periods presented, and the properties intended to be sold are to be designated as “held for sale” on the balance sheet. In the event of a future asset sale, IORI is required to reclassify portions of previously reported operations to discontinued operations within the Statements of Operations. For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2004, income from discontinued operations relates to three properties that IORI sold during 2004. The following table summarizes revenue and expense information for the properties sold.

Discontinued operations have not been segregated in the consolidated statement of cash flows. Therefore, amounts for certain captions will not agree with respective consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Liquidity. Management anticipates that IORI will generate excess cash from operations in 2004 due to increased rental rates and occupancy at its properties, however, such excess may not be sufficient to discharge all of IORI’s debt obligations as they mature. Management intends to selectively sell income producing real estate, refinance real estate and incur additional borrowings against real estate to meet its cash requirements.

Litigation. IORI is involved in various lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. Management is of the opinion that the outcome of these lawsuits should have no material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. IORI is also involved in two significant items of litigation—See ITEM 1. “LEGAL PROCEEDINGS”, under PART II. “OTHER INFORMATION”.

NOTE 11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On November 5, 2004, IORI purchased 36,400 shares of IORI as a block from one stockholder at $16.25 per share for the total cost of $591,500.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Introduction

IORI invests in equity interests in real estate through acquisitions, leases and partnerships and also invests in mortgage loans. IORI is the successor to a California business trust organized on December 14, 1984, which commenced operations on April 10, 1985.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those that are both important to the presentation of IORI’s financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, complex or subjective judgments. IORI’s critical accounting policies relate to the evaluation of impairment of long-lived assets and the evaluation of the collectibility of accounts and notes receivable.

If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a rental property to be held and used or land held for development may be impaired, management performs a recoverability analysis based on estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the property in the future. If the analysis indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from future cash flows, the property is written down to estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized. If management decides to sell rental properties or land held for development, management evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amounts of the assets. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from estimated net sales proceeds, the property is written down to estimated fair value less costs to sell and an impairment loss is recognized within income from continuing operations. IORI’s estimates of cash flow and fair values of the properties are based on current market conditions and consider matters such as rental rates and occupancies for comparable properties, recent sales data for comparable properties and, where applicable, contracts or the results of negotiations with purchasers or prospective purchasers. IORI’s estimates are subject to revision as market conditions and IORI’s assessments of them change.

IORI’s allowance for doubtful accounts receivable and notes receivable is established based on analysis of the risk of loss on specific accounts. The analysis places particular emphasis on past due accounts. Management considers such information as the nature and age of the receivable, the payment history of the tenant or other debtor, the financial condition of the tenant or other debtor and IORI’s assessment of its ability to meet its lease or interest obligations. IORI’s estimate of the required allowance, which is reviewed on a quarterly basis, is subject to revision as these factors change and is sensitive to the effects of economic and market conditions. Typically, IORI’s notes receivable are collateralized by income producing real estate. IORI had notes receivable of $54.3 million and $45.5 million at September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2004 were $93,000, compared with $58,000 at December 31, 2003. IORI’s principal sources of cash have been and will continue to be property operations, proceeds from property sales, financings and refinancings and partnership distributions. Management anticipates that IORI will generate excess cash from operations in 2004 due to increased rental receipts at its properties, however, such excess will not be sufficient to discharge all of IORI’s debt obligations as they mature. Management intends to selectively sell income producing real estate, refinance real estate and incur additional borrowings against real estate to meet its cash requirements.

The Company reported net income of $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, which included the following non-cash charges: depreciation of $779,000, gain on sale of real estate of $3.7 million, loss on equity partnership of $9,000, increase in interest receivable of $391,000, increase in other assets of $8.7 million, decrease in interest payable of $108,000, and increase in other liabilities of $2.6 million. Net cash used in operating activities amounted to $6.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the increase in other assets was primarily due to increase in accounts receivable from affiliates and the increase in other liabilities was primarily due to increase in accounts payable in general. Net cash provided by investing activities of $5.5 million was comprised of proceeds from sale of real estate of $3.5 million net of payments to SWI of $2.0 million. Net cash provided by financing activities of $728,000 was comprised of payments on notes payable of $931,000, proceeds on notes payable of $1.2 million, advances from affiliates of $497,000, deferred financing cost of $169,000, and payment for treasury stock of $200.

Management reviews the carrying values of IORI’s properties at least annually and whenever events or a change in circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Impairment is considered to exist if, in the case of a property, the future cash flow from the property (undiscounted and without interest) is less than the carrying amount of the property. If impairment is found to exist, a provision for loss is recorded by a charge against earnings. The property review generally includes selective property inspections, discussions with the manager of the property, visits to selected properties in the area and a review of the following: (1) the property’s

14


Table of Contents

current rents compared to market rents, (2) the property’s expenses, (3) the property’s maintenance requirements and (4) the property’s cash flows.

Results of Operations

IORI had net income of $310,000 for the three months ended September 30 2004, and net income of $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to net loss of $977,000 and net loss of $1.3 million for the corresponding periods in 2003. The net income in 2004 included gains on sale of real estate totaling $3.7 million. Fluctuations in components of revenue and expense between the 2004 and 2003 periods are discussed below.

Rents in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 were $1.7 million and $5.1 million versus $1.6 million and $4.8 million in the corresponding periods in 2003. Rental income for the remaining quarter of 2004 may be expected to decrease if IORI selectively sells properties.

Property operations expense in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 were $975,000 and $2.7 million versus $923,000 and $2.5 million in the corresponding periods in 2003. Property operations expense may be expected to decrease in the remaining quarters of 2004 if IORI selectively sells properties.

Interest income in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $1.0 million and $2.2 million versus $12,000 and $626,000 in the corresponding periods in 2003. The nine months increase in 2004 from 2003 was due to interest income earned from the wraparound promissory notes with Encino Executive Plaza and the promissory notes with Housing for Seniors of Humble, LLC.

Interest expense in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $856,000 and $2.7 million versus $398,000 and $1.5 million in the corresponding periods in 2003. The increases in 2004 from 2003 were primarily due to additional interest payments made after the sales transactions with Encino Executive Plaza, Ltd. in October 2003. Most of the additional interest expense incurred by this transaction was offset by the additional interest income earned from the wraparound note as explained in Note 3. Interest expense in 2004 is expected to remain constant.

Depreciation expense in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $250,000 and $779,000 versus $149,000 and $807,000 in the corresponding periods in 2003. The year-to-date decrease in 2004 from 2003 were primarily due to the sale of properties throughout the year and fully depreciated tenant improvements.

Advisory fee to affiliate in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $177,000 and $573,000 versus $164,000 and $498,000 in the corresponding periods in 2003. The increases in 2004 from 2003 were due to changes in gross assets, the basis of the fee. See NOTE 9. “ADVISORY FEES.”

Net income fee to affiliate was $250,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The net income fee is based on 7.5% of IORI’s net income.

General and administrative expense in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $95,000 and $540,000 versus $323,000 and $692,000 in the corresponding periods in 2003. The decreases in 2004 from 2003 were primarily due to the decrease in legal expenses and advisory cost reimbursement.

Related Party Transactions

Historically, IORI, ARI, RRI, and TCI have each engaged in and may continue to engage in business transactions, including real estate partnerships with related parties. Management believes that all of the related party transactions represented the best investments available at the time and were at least as advantageous to IORI, ARI, RRI, and TCI as could have been obtained from unrelated third parties.

Table of Contents

Taxes

For the tax years prior to 2003, IORI elected and qualified to be treated as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”), as defined in Sections 856 and 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and as such was not taxed for federal income tax purposes on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to stockholders. Due to the completion of a tender offer by ARI, an affiliate, and the resulting concentration of ownership, IORI no longer met the requirements for tax treatment as a REIT under the Code as of January 1, 2003, and is prohibited from re-qualifying for REIT status for at least five years.

Financial statement income varies from taxable income principally due to the accounting for income and losses of investees, gains and losses from asset sales, depreciation on owned properties, amortization of discounts on notes receivable and payable and the difference in the allowance for estimated losses. IORI had a loss for federal income tax purposes after the use of net operating loss carryforwards in the third quarter of 2004 and a loss for federal income tax purposes in the third quarter of 2003; therefore, it recorded no provision for income taxes.

At September 30, 2004, IORI had a net deferred tax asset of $3.5 million due to tax deductions available to it in future years. However, as management cannot determine that it is more likely than not that IORI will realize the benefit of the deferred tax asset, a 100% valuation allowance has been established.

Inflation

The effects of inflation on IORI’s operations are not quantifiable. Revenues from apartment operations tend to fluctuate proportionately with inflationary increases and decreases in housing costs. Fluctuations in the rate of inflation also affect the sales value of properties and the ultimate gain to be realized from property sales. To the extent that inflation affects interest rates, earnings from short-term investments and the cost of new financings, as well as the cost of variable interest rate debt, will be affected.

Environmental Matters

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, IORI may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other potential costs, relating to hazardous or toxic substances (including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property) where property-level managers have arranged for the removal, disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, certain environmental laws impose liability for release of asbestos-containing materials into the air and third parties may seek recovery for personal injury associated with such materials.

Management is not aware of any environmental liability relating to the above matters that would have a material adverse effect on IORI’s business, assets or results of operations.

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES REGARDING MARKET RISK

ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)   As of the end of the period covered by this report, IORI carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of IORI’s management, including IORI’s Acting Principal Executive Officer and principal accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of IORI’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon the evaluation, IORI’s Acting Principal Executive Officer and principal accounting officer concluded that IORI’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting him to material information relating to IORI (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in IORI’s periodic SEC filings.

(b)   There have been no significant changes in IORI’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect IORI’s internal controls subsequent to the date IORI carried out this evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

Also, words such as “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “plan”, “estimate”, or similar expressions identify forward looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by the forward looking statements as a result of various factors. Such factors include, without limitation, the impact of changes in the economy and the capital markets on IORI and its tenants, competition within the real estate industry or those industries in which its tenants operate, and changes in federal, state and local legislation. For example: Some of IORI’s tenants may not renew expiring leases and IORI may be unable to locate new tenants to maintain the historical occupancy rates of the properties; rents which IORI can achieve at its properties may decline; tenants may experience losses and become unable to pay rents; and IORI may be unable to identify or to negotiate acceptable purchase prices for new properties. These results could occur due to many different circumstances, some of which, such as changes in IORI’s tenants’ financial conditions or needs for leased space, or changes in the capital markets or the economy, generally, are beyond IORI’s control. Forward looking statements are only expressions of IORI’s present expectations and intentions. Forward looking statements are not guaranteed to occur, and they may not occur. You should not place undue reliance upon forward looking statements.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On August 10, 2004, American Realty Investors, Inc. (“ARI”), Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (“TCI”) and Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. (“IOT”) instituted an action in Texas State District Court as Cause No. 2004-60231-393 styled American Realty Investors, Inc., Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. and Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc., Plaintiffs v. Innovo Realty, Inc. and Innovo Group, Inc., Involuntary Plaintiffs v. Innovo Realty, Inc., Metra Capital LLC, Innovo Group, Inc., Joseph Mizrachi, Simon Mizrachi, Hubert Guez, Third Millennium Partners LLC, Third Millennium Partners, Inc., Third Millennium Group, LLC and Sunridge Management Group, Inc., Defendants. Plaintiffs’ complaint alleges that Joseph Mizrachi, a former director of ARI and others, offered a plan to the Plaintiffs to create one or more joint venture arrangements with one or more of the Plaintiffs to pursue alternative forms of financing or refinancing portions of Plaintiffs’ real estate portfolios, which entailed the creation of 22 separate limited partnerships to acquire 28 separate apartment complexes in three states (Texas, Florida and Louisiana), the general partners of which are affiliates of, or controlled by, Joseph Mizrachi. Plaintiffs’ complaint alleges that the overall transaction required the establishment of a sinking fund by the Defendants and the 22 limited partnerships as a trust for the benefit of certain preferred shareholders of Innovo Group, Inc. and the payment of certain proceeds to the Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs assert that payments have not been made pursuant to the agreement of the parties. Plaintiffs allege that Defendants’ conduct constituted a common business enterprise, alleges breach of contract and derivative claims on behalf of Innovo Group, Inc. against Joseph Mizrachi and others and requests declaratory relief involving the Plaintiffs’ rights in the partnerships, an accounting of proceeds, and the creation of a constructive trust. Plaintiffs’ complaint also alleges that Joseph Mizrachi engaged in fraud, negligent misrepresentation and/or breach of fiduciary duty and seeks unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, a constructive trust be established, and other relief.

On October 5, 2004, Sunset Management LLC (“Sunset”) filed a complaint as a purported stockholder’s derivative action on behalf of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (“TCI”) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, against American Realty Investors, Inc. (“ARI”) and several others, including IOT, as Case No. 04CV20162-B, styled Sunset Management LLC, Derivatively on behalf of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. v. American Realty Investors, Inc., et al. Sunset’s complaint alleges (i) Sunset is the owner of 10 shares of Common Stock of TCI and is the pledgee and beneficial owner of other shares of Common Stock of TCI, (ii) Sunset is a single-member limited liability company, (iii) that all of the Defendants have in their various capacities breached fiduciary duties to TCI, and (iv) unjust enrichment of the various Defendants. Sunset’s complaint seeks an injunction prohibiting TCI from entering into any related-party transactions that are not fair to TCI and approved by disinterested directors and/or stockholders with full knowledge of the common interests of the directors and/or officers, unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. All Defendants (including IOT) believe the action is not properly brought as a derivative action on behalf of TCI as Sunset’s interests are adverse to the interests of TCI. The current action brought by Sunset contains many of the same allegations raised by Sunset in four other cases involving TCI which, as rulings have occurred, have resulted in a denial of Sunset’s requested relief. The Defendants (including IOT) intend to vigorously defend the action and have filed a Motion to Dismiss Sunset’s complaint pursuant to Rules 12 and 23.1 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure on the basis that Sunset’s allegations are insufficient to evade the stringent demand requirement under the futility exception for stockholder derivative actions, and Sunset cannot fairly and adequately represent the interests of the other stockholders. Sunset’s complaint makes no specific allegations against IOT, but advises that as of March 19, 2003, TCI owned approximately 24% of IOT.
