We exceeded our original FFO guidance by $.09 per share based on the high end of our range, and our net income was also affected, primarily as a result of three factors: accelerated timing of residential development sales, higher than expected resort operating results and the recognition of a tax benefit associated with obtaining resort/hotel lease interests in February February: see month. .

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS forward-looking statement

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, the Company's actual results could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

The following factors might cause such a difference:
-- The Company's ability, at its office properties, to timely lease unoccupied
square footage and timely re-lease occupied square footage upon expiration on
favorable terms, which may be adversely affected by changes in real estate
conditions (including rental rates and competition from other properties and
new development of competing properties or a general downturn in the economy);

-- Further deterioration in the resort/business-class hotel markets or in the
market for residential land or luxury residences, including single-family
homes, townhomes and condominiums, or in the economy generally;

-- Financing risks, such as the ability to generate revenue sufficient to
service and repay existing or additional debt, increases in debt service
associated with increased debt and with variable-rate debt, the ability to meet
financial covenants, the Company's ability to fund the share repurchase program
and the Company's ability to consummate financings and refinancings on
favorable terms and within any applicable time frames;

-- Crescent's inability to obtain the confirmation of a prepackaged bankruptcy
plan of COPI binding all creditors and stockholders;

-- The inability of Crescent successfully to integrate the lessee interests in
the resort/hotel properties and the voting interests in its residential
development corporations and related entities with its current business and
operations;

-- The inability of Crescent to complete the distribution to its shareholders
of the shares of a new entity to purchase the AmeriCold tenant interest from
COPI;

-- Further adverse conditions in the temperature-controlled logistics business
(including both industry-specific conditions and a general downturn in the
economy which may further jeopardize the ability of the Company's tenant to pay
all current rent due to the Company);

-- Adverse changes in the financial condition of existing tenants;

-- The concentration of a significant percentage of the Company's assets in
Texas;

-- The Company's ability to find acquisition and development opportunities
which meet the Company's investment strategy;

-- The existence of complex regulations relating to the Company's status as a
REIT, the effect of future changes in REIT requirements as a result of new
legislation and the adverse consequences of the failure to qualify as a REIT;
and

-- Other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the
SEC.
