:BRT) today announced that for the quarter ended December December: see month.  31, 2002, the first quarter of its fiscal year, it had revenues of $4,193,000 and net income of $2,836,000, or $.38 per share on a diluted di·lute

 basis. This compares with total revenues of $4,985,000, and net income of $3,456,000 or $.46 per share on a diluted basis for the three months ended December 31, 2001. The three months ended December 31, 2002 includes a $195,000 net gain on the sale of real estate, or $.03 per share. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 7,536,538 and 7,445,042 for the quarter ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 respectively.

Commenting on the results of operations for the first quarter, Jeffrey Gould, President and Chief Executive officer of BRT, noted that revenues had declined 16% or $792,000 relative to the first quarter of last year. Mr. Gould explained that the 2001 quarter included $1,182,000 of non-recurring interest received upon the payoff of two loans and a gain recorded during the same period from one of our unconsolidated joint ventures upon the sale of a parcel of land at a property located in Dover, Delaware The city of Dover is the capital and second largest city[1] in the U.S. state of Delaware. It is also the county seat of Kent County, and the principal city of the Dover, Delaware Metropolitan Statistical Area which encompasses all of Kent County. It is located on the St. . However, we had increased interest income of $428,000 during the recent first quarter compared to the prior year quarter because we had an increase in the average balance of loans outstanding during the current year's quarter.

Mr. Gould also noted that total expenses increased slightly in the current quarter when compared to the comparable quarter in 2001. During the current quarter, interest expense increased $86,000 as the Trust utilized its available credit facilities credit facilities nplfacilidades fpl de crédito
