2006 Outlook

The company believes that the financial results for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006 will be affected by:

--national and regional economic trends and events;

--the timing of acquisitions;

--interest rate risk;

--the timing of starts and completion of owned development projects;

--the ability and the timing of the company to be awarded and commence construction of third-party development projects;

--the amount of income recognized by the taxable REIT REIT

 subsidiary and any corresponding income tax expense;

--the ability of the company to integrate acquired properties;

--the success of releasing the company's owned properties for the 2006-2007 academic year; and

--other factors

Based upon these assumptions management anticipates that fiscal year 2006 FFO will be in the range of $1.48 to $1.62 per fully diluted share and that FFOM will be in the range of $1.36 to $1.50 per fully diluted share. All guidance is based on the current expectations and judgment of the company's management team.

A reconciliation of the range provided for projected net income to projected FFO and FFOM for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, and assumptions utilized is included in Table 4.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As defined by NAREIT NAREIT National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts , FFO represents income (loss) before allocation The apportionment or designation of an item for a specific purpose or to a particular place.

We present FFO because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our operating performance and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization unique to real estate, gains and losses from property dispositions and extraordinary items, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates Noun 1. occupancy rate - the percentage of all rental units (as in hotels) are occupied or rented at a given time

Further, FFO does not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator Indicator

As noted above, FFO excludes GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets because these GAAP items assume that the value of real estate diminishes over time. However, unlike the ownership of our owned off-campus properties, the unique features of our ownership interest in our on-campus participating properties cause the value of these properties to diminish over time. For example, since the ground leases under which we operate the participating properties require the reinvestment Reinvestment

Accordingly, when considering our FFO, we believe it is also a meaningful measure of our performance to modify FFO to exclude the operations of our on-campus participating properties and to consider their impact on performance by including only that portion of our revenues from those properties that are reflective Refers to light hitting an opaque surface such as a printed page or mirror and bouncing back.
