PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General Development of Business
Monmouth Capital Corporation (the Company) sells
and finances manufactured homes and owns one real estate
investment. The Company is a corporation organized in
the State of New Jersey. The Company commenced operations in 1961.
Prior to fiscal 1994, the Company operated as a
small business investment company under the Small Business
Investment Company Act of 1958 and as an investment
company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. As such, the
Company was able to distribute its income prior to income taxes as
dividends to shareholders. The Company was allowed a
deduction from taxable income for these distributions.
With shareholder approval, the Company surrendered
its license to operate as a small business investment
company and deregistered as an investment company. On
January 15, 1993, the Small Business Administration
approved the surrender of the Company's license. On
July 20, 1993, the Securities and Exchange Commission
entered an Order that the Company had ceased to be an
investment company. Since the Company is no longer an
investment company, earnings are now fully taxable.
Certain members of the Company's Board of Directors
manage two real estate investment trusts. In 1995, the
Company success fully completed a Rights Offering to
its shareholders. The Company raised approximately
$1,600,000 after expenses bringing total equity to
approximately $4,500,000.
Narrative Description of the Business
During fiscal 1994, the Company formed a wholly-
owned subsidiary, The Mobile Home Store, Inc., to finance
and sell manufactured homes. At March 31, 2000, loans
receivable relating to the financing of manufactured
home sales amounted to $2,476,510. A description of the
Company's total loan portfolio of $2,504,804 is incorporated
herein by reference to Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements - Loans Receivable.
-2-
During fiscal 2000, the Company announced that it will
exit the manufactured home sales business since it has not
proven to be profitable. The sales operations were
conducted at manufactured home communities owned by United
Mobile Homes, Inc. (UMH), a related real estate investment
trust (REIT). Effective January 1, 2001, the Company anticipates
that UMH will take over the sales operation, including
inventory and possibly the manufactured home loans receivable.
On March 31, 1994, the Company purchased a net
leased industrial building in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
During fiscal 2000, this building was sold at a gain of
$245,419. As an interim measure, the Company is investing
in securities of REITs. Based on current market conditions,
management believes that the prices of those REIT shares
are at a discount from the value of the underlying
properties. The Company has purchased these securities
on margin since the interest and dividend yields exceed
the cost of funds. Such securities are subject to risk
arising from adverse changes in market rates and
prices, primarily interest rate risk relating to debt
securities and equity price risk relating to equity
securities.
Management
The management of the Company currently operates
Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation (MREIC) and
UMH, two REITs. MREIC is now specializing in net leased
industrial properties to rated tenants on medium term
leases. UMH specializes in investments in manufactured
home communities. It is intended that the Company will
invest in real estate ventures that do not qualify under
the investment objectives of MREIC and UMH. To the extent
that there may be conflicts of interest as to prospective
investments, the Company may be deprived of investment
opportunities.
Environmental, Regulatory and Energy Problems
The Company must comply with certain Federal
Environmental Protection Agency Regulations as well as
state and local governmental regulations.
In conjunction with the sale of the Bethlehem building,
a Phase I environmental assessment was performed. This assessment
consisted of searches of Federal and State databases to
determine potential sources of contamination, investigation
of the site history, and visual inspection. The assessment
concluded that there was no evidence to suggest that the
site has ever experienced a significant spill or
environmental incident. Management is not aware of any material
environmental problems affecting the Company.
Number of Employees
At March 31, 2000, the Company had nine full-time employees.
A Board of Directors consisting of eight directors is responsible
for the general policies of the Company.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company had one property, located in Bethlehem,
Pennsylvania. This property was sold in fiscal 2000.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
None.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
None.

dividends paid by the Company amounted to $75,710 or $.05 per
share, $74,666 or $.05 per share and $73,515 or $.05 per share,
respectively.

capital requirements, financial condition, availability and cost of bank
financing and other factors considered relevant by the Board of Directors.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended
March 31, 2000 amounted to $553,657 as compared to net cash
used by operating activities of $870,704 and $663,806 for
the years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The
increase in fiscal 2000 in net cash provided by operating
activities was due primarily to a decrease in inventory and
an increase in accounts payable for the year. Cash used by
operating activities remained relatively stable during 1999 and 1998.
Securities available for sale increased by $2,717,118
primarily as a result of new purchases. As an interim measure,
the Company is investing in securities of REITs. Based on
current market conditions, management believes that the prices of
those REIT shares are at a discount from the value of the
underlying properties.
Inventory decreased by $391,761 as a result of decreased
purchases of manufactured homes. The Company anticipates exiting
the manufactured home sales business by January 1, 2001.
Loans receivable decreased by $293,672 during fiscal 2000.
This decrease was the result of principal repayments and other
decreases of $793,403 offset by new loans of $609,962. The
Company also transferred $110,231 representing certain equipment
and fixtures that collateralized a non-performing loan to
Building, Improvements and Equipment.
Loans payable increased by $1,388,693 during fiscal 2000.
This represents the margin loan on securities available for sale.
The Company purchased these securities on margin since the
interest and dividend yields exceed the cost of funds.
Inventory financing decreased by $317,532 during fiscal 2000
as a direct result of the decrease in inventory.
-6-
Results of Operations
Income is comprised primarily of sales of manufactured homes by
The Mobile Home Store, Inc. (MHS), the Company's wholly owned subsidiary,
interest income and rental income. Sales of manufactured homes
increased from $3,730,244 in 1998 to $5,396,530 in 1999. MHS had
been experiencing increased sales since its inception in fiscal 1994.
Sales of manufactured homes decreased during fiscal 2000 to $4,759,648.
This was primarily due to the closing of certain unprofitable sales
locations.
Interest and dividend income increased by $57,412 during fiscal
2000 primarily due to the purchases of securities available for sale.
Interest and dividend income remained relatively stable during 1999
and 1998.
Rental income, primarily related to the Bethlehem, Pennsylvania
net-leased industrial building, increased by $29,613 during fiscal 2000.
This was primarily a result of an increase in reimbursable expenses.
Rental income decreased during 1999 due to the loss of one tenant.
Other income increased from $59,648 in 1998 to $82,503 in 1999 to
$121,012 in fiscal 2000 due primarily to increased income received for
retail loan volume. Other income in fiscal 2000 also included a gain on
sale of securities available for sale of $16,841.
Cost of manufactured home sales increased from $2,849,627 in 1998 to
$4,442,148 in 1999 and decreased to $3,974,912 in fiscal 2000. Selling
expense increased from $431,901 in 1998 to $490,771 in 1999 and
decreased to $474,134 in fiscal 2000. These changes are directly
attributable to the change in sales of manufactured homes.
Salaries and employee benefits remained relatively stable during
fiscal 2000. Salaries and employee benefits increased from $199,080 in
1998 to $318,291 in 1999 due to additional employees. During 1998,
outside professionals were used rather than employees. There was a
corresponding decrease in professional fees during 1999.
Interest expense increased from $81,289 in 1998 to $130,706 in 1999
to $152,509 in fiscal 2000. The increase during 1999 was due to an
increase in inventory financing. The increase during fiscal 2000 was due
to the purchase of securities for sale on margin.
Other expenses remained relatively stable during fiscal 2000.
Other expenses increased from $453,687 during 1998 to $649,905 during
1999 due to the expansion of the operations of MHS.
The change in income taxes was due to the changes in income.

Year 2000
The Company has experienced no significant impact of its operations
or its ability to accurately process financial information due to a
Year 2000 related issue. In addition, the Company has no information that
indicates a significant tenant, vendor or service provider may be unable to
meet their rental obligations, sell goods or provide services to the
Company because of Year 2000 issues. The Company will continue to
monitor its operations for Year 2000 related issues.

Report of the Compensation Committee
Overview and Philosophy
The Company has a Compensation Committee consisting of two
independent outside Directors. This Committee is responsible for making
recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning executive
compensation. The Compensation Committee takes into consideration
three major factors in setting compensation.
The first consideration is the overall performance of the
Company. The Committee believes that the financial interests of the
executive officers should be aligned with the success of the Company and the
financial interests of its shareholders.
The second consideration is the individual achievements made by each
officer. The Company is relatively small. The Committee is aware of the
contributions made by each officer and makes an evaluation of individual
performance based on their own familiarity with the officer.
The final criteria in setting compensation is comparable wages in
the industry.
-11-
Evaluation
The Committee reviewed the progress made by Eugene W. Landy, Chief
Executive Officer, in locating alternative business and investment
opportunities. The Committee decided to continue Mr. Landy's annual
compensation of $50,000.
Other Information
Except for specific agreements, the Company has no retirement
plan in effect for officers, directors or employees and, at present,
has no intention of instituting such a plan.
Comparative Performance

Common Stock for the last five fiscal years to the NASDAQ Total Return

MONMOUTH CAPITAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2000
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of the Business
Monmouth Capital Corporation (the Company) is a corporation organized
in New Jersey which commenced operations in 1961. Prior to fiscal
1994, the Company was an investment company under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 and a small business investment company licensed under
the Small Business Investment Company Act of 1958. The Company currently
sells and finances manufactured homes. The Company also receives rental
income from one real estate investment.
Revenue Recognition
Sale of manufactured homes is recognized on the full accrual basis when
certain criteria are met. These criteria include the following:
(a) initial and continuing payment by the buyer must be adequate; (b) the
receivable, if any, is not subject to future subordination; (c) the
benefits and risks of ownership are substantially transferred to the
buyer; and (d) the Company does not have a substantial continued
involvement with the home after the sale. Alternatively, when the
foregoing criteria are not met, the Company recognizes gains by the
installment method. Interest income on loans receivable is not accrued
when, in the opinion of management, the collection of such interest
appears doubtful. Rental income is recognized on the straight-line basis
over the term of the lease.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Building, Improvements and Equipment
Building, Improvements and Equipment are stated at the lower of
depreciated cost or net realizable value. Depreciation is computed based
on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets
(5 to 27.5 years). If there is an event or change in circumstances that
indicates that the basis of an investment property may not be recoverable,
management assesses the possible impairment of value through evaluation
of the estimated future cash flows of the property, on an undiscounted
basis, as compared to the property's current carrying value. A
property's carrying value would be adjusted, if necessary, to reflect an
impairment in the value of the property.
-21-
Securities Available for Sale
The Company's securities are classified as Available-forSale, and
are carried at fair value. Gains or losses on the sale of securities are
based on identifiable cost and are accounted for on a trade date basis.
Unrealized holding gains and losses are excluded from earnings and reported
as a separate component of Shareholders' Equity until realized. A decline
in the market value of any security below cost that is deemed to be other
than temporary results in a reduction in the carrying amount to fair value.
Any impairment is charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the
security is established.
Inventories
Inventories, consisting of manufactured homes for sale, are valued
at the lower of cost or market value and are determined by the specific
identification method. All inventories are considered finished goods.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes". Income taxes are accounted for by the asset/liability method.
Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by
the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the
period (1,516,528, 1,496,727, and 1,458,811 in 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively). Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing
net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
plus the weighted-average number of net shares that would be issued
upon exercise of stock options pursuant to the treasury stock method
(See Note 6). There were no dilutive stock options as of March 31, 2000,
1999 and 1998.
Stock Option Plan
The Company's stock option plan is accounted for under the intrinsic
value based method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB)
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". As such,
compensation expense would be recorded on the date of grant only if the
current market price on the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price.
Included in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements are the
pro forma disclosures required by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," which assumes the fair value based method of accounting has
been adopted.
Other Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income consists of net income and net unrealized
gains or losses on securities available for sale and is presented in
the consolidated statements of shareholders' equity.
-22-
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the financial statements for the prior years
have been reclassified to conform to the statement presentation for
the current year.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARY
The Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, The Mobile Home Store,
Inc. (MHS), to finance and sell manufactured homes. MHS was incorporated in
the State of New Jersey on July 28, 1993. The consolidated financial
statements of the Company include the accounts of MHS. All intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
NOTE 3 - LOANS RECEIVABLE
The following is a summary of the loans held by the Company at
March 31, 2000 and 1999:

========= =========
* Includes a non-performing loan of $175,231 in 1999. In
April, 1999, the Company repossessed certain equipment and fixtures
that collateralized this loan. Effective September 1, 1999, this property
was leased on a five-year lease for $1,650 per month for the first year
with 5% annual increases thereafter. The Company wrote off $65,000 of the
loan against the Allowance for Losses and transferred the remaining balance
of $110,231 to Building, Improvements and Equipment. In January 2000,
this lease was terminated. The Company is currently trying to release this
property.
During 1994, MHS began selling manufactured home units and financing
these sales. At March 31, 2000 and 1999, financed manufactured homes
consist of 116 loans. These loans range from approximately $400 to
approximately $62,000. Loans receivable for financed manufactured homes
are secured by the property financed. Generally, the terms of the loans
do not exceed 20 years. No allowance for uncollectable accounts
has been recorded. Management believes that the fair market value of
a unit under repossession exceeds the loan balance due.

equity securities amounted to $82,770 and $0- as of March 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.
NOTE 5 - LOANS PAYABLE AND INVENTORY FINANCING
During fiscal 2000, the Company purchased securities on margin.
At March 31, 2000, the margin loan amounted to $1,388,693 at an
interest rate of 7.25% and is secured by investment securities with

each advance to prime plus 2.75% after one year. Advances under this
line of credit are secured by the manufactured homes for which the
advances were made. Total advances under this line of credit at
March 31, 2000 and 1999 amounted to $1,875,811 and $2,193,343, respectively.
-25-
NOTE 6 - EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN
On July 14, 1994, the shareholders approved and ratified the Company's
1994 Stock Option Plan authorizing the grant to officers and key
employees of options to purchase up to 300,000 shares of common stock.
Options may be granted any time up to December 31, 2003. No option
shall be available for exercise beyond ten years. All options are
exercisable after one year from the date of grant. The option price
shall not be below the fair market value at date of grant. Canceled or
expired options are added back to the "pool" of shares available under the
plan.
The Company elected to continue following APB Opinion No. 25 in
accounting for its stock option plans and, accordingly, no compensation
cost has been recognized. Had compensation cost been determined
consistent with SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per
share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts as follows:
2000 1999 1998
Net Income As Reported $14,200 $(213,401) $11,261
(Loss) Pro forma 6,589 (225,169) 3,387
Net Income As Reported .01 (.14) .01
(Loss) Pro forma .01 (.15) .01
Per Share
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of the
grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2000, 1999 and 1998:
dividend yield of .3 percent; expected volatility of 25 percent;
risk-free interest rates of 6.5 percent; and expected lives of five
years.
A summary of the status of the Company's stock option plans as of

NOTE 7 - DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT AND STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
Effective August 28, 1995, the Company implemented a
Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (DRIP). Under the
terms of the DRIP, shareholders who participate may reinvest all
or part of their dividends in additional shares of the Company at
approximately 95% of the market price.
Shareholders may also purchase additional shares at
approximately 95% of its market price by making optional cash
payments. For the years ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the
Company received $23,078 and $115,104 from the DRIP, respectively.
There were 8,389 and 36,052 new shares issued, respectively.
On December 15, 1999, the Company paid $75,710 as a dividend of
$.05 per share to shareholders of record November 15, 1999.
NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES
For the years ended March 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, total income
tax expense amounted to $-0-, $-0- and $34,239, respectively. For
the year ended March 31, 2000, the Company had a net operating loss
carryforward of approximately $140,000 to offset future taxable income.

NOTE 10 - GROUP CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
The Company sells and finances manufactured homes located throughout
the Northeast region of the United States. The loan portfolio is
diversified. Generally, loans are collateralized by the manufactured homes.
At March 31, 2000 and 1999, all loans were secured.
NOTE 11 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company is required to disclose certain information about fair
values of financial instruments, as defined in Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial
Instruments".
Limitations
Estimates of fair value are made at a specific point in time based
upon where available, relevant market prices and information about the
financial instrument. Such estimates do not include any premium or discount
that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company's
entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. For a portion of
the Company's financial instruments, no quoted market value exists.
Therefore, estimates of fair value are necessarily based on a number of
significant assumptions (many of which involve events outside the control of
management). Such assumptions include assessments of current economic
conditions, perceived risks associated with these financial instruments
and their counterparties, future expected loss experience and other factors.
Given the uncertainties surrounding these assumptions, the reported fair
values represent estimates only, and, therefore, cannot be compared to
the historical accounting model. Use of different assumptions or
methodologies is likely to result in significantly different fair value
estimates.
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and loans receivable
approximates their current carrying amounts since all such items are
short-term in nature. The fair value of securities available for sale is
based upon quoted market values (See Note 4). The fair value of loans
payable approximates their current carrying amounts since such amounts
payable are at a current market rate of interest.
