One Liberty Properties, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 - Basis of Preparation

The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements as of March
31, 2003 and for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 reflect all
normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for a fair presentation of the results for such interim periods. The results of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily
indicative of the results for the full year.

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States 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.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of One Liberty
Properties, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiaries and a majority-owned limited
liability company. Material intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated. The Company's investments in less than majority owned joint ventures
have been accounted for using the equity method. One Liberty Properties, Inc.,
its subsidiaries and the limited liability company are hereinafter referred to
as the "Company".

Certain amounts reported in previous consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to
the current year's presentation.

These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related notes which are included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Note 2 - Earnings Per Common Share

For the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 basic earnings per share was
determined by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders for the
period by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
during each period.

Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if
securities or other contracts to issue Common Stock were exercised or converted
into Common Stock or resulted in the issuance of Common Stock that then shared
in the earnings of the Company. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2003
and 2002 diluted earnings per share was determined by dividing net income
applicable to common stockholders for the period by the total of the weighted
average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of
the Company's outstanding options (30,591 and 35,278 for the three months ended
March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively) using the treasury stock method. The
Preferred Stock was not considered for the purpose of computing diluted earnings
per share because their assumed conversion is antidilutive.

Note 3 - Preferred and Common Stock Dividend Distributions

On March 12, 2003 the Board of Directors declared quarterly cash distributions
of $.33 and $.40 per share on the Company's common and preferred stock,
respectively, which was paid on April 2, 2003 to stockholders of record on March
24, 2003.

Note 4 - Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

In the latter part of 2001 and in 2002, we entered into two joint ventures
organized for the purpose of acquiring and owning megaplex stadium-style movie
theaters. We own a 25% equity interest in the first joint venture organized
(Joint Venture #1), which has acquired five megaplex stadium-style movie
theaters, and a 50% equity interest in the second joint venture organized (Joint
Venture #2), which has acquired one partial stadium-style movie theater and
three megaplex stadium-style movie theaters. These movie theaters were acquired
for a total consideration of $97.7 million.

On May 2, 2003, the movie theater joint ventures closed on mortgage financings
secured by one unencumbered property owned by Joint Venture #1 in the amount of
$5.4 million and by two unencumbered properties and the Brooklyn movie theater
property owned by Joint Venture #2 in the aggregate amount of $17.9 million. As
a result of these financings, the Company received approximately $13 million,
including the payoff of $6.2 million of mortgages on the Brooklyn theater held
by the Company.

The following tables present unaudited condensed financial statements for these
two joint ventures at March 31, 2003 and for the three months ended March 31,
2003 and 2002 (amounts in thousands):

balance due to the Company.

(C) The joint venture was formed in July 2002, therefore there is
no comparative data for the three months ended March 31, 2002.


The Company is a member in two other unconsolidated joint ventures each of which
owns one property. These two joint ventures contributed $83,000 and $27,000 in
equity earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002,
respectively.

Note 5 - Line of Credit

On March 21, 2003, the Company closed on a new revolving credit facility for $30
million ("Facility") with Valley National Bank, Merchants Bank Division and Bank
Leumi, USA. The Facility is for a term of two years. The Facility provides that
the Company pay interest at the bank's prime rate on funds borrowed and an
unused facility fee of 1/4%. The Company immediately drew down approximately $10
million to pay off the outstanding balance on the old credit line. Fees to banks
and closing costs of approximately $260,000 were paid and will be amortized over
the term of the loan.

The Facility is guaranteed by all of the Company's subsidiaries which own
unencumbered properties and shares of its subsidiaries are pledged as
collateral. The Company has agreed that it and its affiliates (including
entities that are participants in a Shared Services Agreement) will maintain on
deposit with the Banks at least 10% of the average outstanding annual principal
balance of take downs under the Facility. If minimum balances are not maintained
by the Company and its affiliates, a deficiency fee is charged to the Company.

The Facility is available to finance the acquisition or financing of interests
in commercial real estate. The Company is required to comply with certain
covenants. Net proceeds received from the sale or refinance of properties are
required to be used to repay amounts outstanding under the Facility if proceeds
from the Facility were used to purchase the property.

Note 6 - Comprehensive Income

Statement No. 130 establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and
its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements and
requires that all components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial
statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial
statements. During the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, accumulated
other comprehensive income, which is solely comprised of the net unrealized gain
on available-for-sale securities, increased $18,000 to $330,000 and $65,000 to
$326,000, respectively.

Forward-Looking Statements
- --------------------------

With the exception of historical information, this report on Form 10-Q contains
certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered
by the safe harbor provision for forward-looking statements contained in the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include this statement for
purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking
statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future
plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the
words "may", "will", "believe", "expect", "intend", "anticipate", "estimate",
"project", or similar expressions or variations thereof. Forward-looking
statements should not be relied on since they involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond our control and
which could materially affect actual results, performance or achievements.
Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking
statements.

General
- -------

We are a self-administered REIT and we primarily own real estate that we net
lease to tenants. We currently own 33 properties and we are a member of four
joint ventures that own a total of eleven properties. These 44 properties are
located in 16 states.

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. To
qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational
requirements, including a requirement that we currently distribute at least 90%
of ordinary taxable income to our stockholders. We intend to adhere to these
requirements and to maintain our REIT status.

Our principal business strategy is to acquire improved, commercial properties
subject to long-term net leases. We acquire properties for their value as
long-term investments and for their ability to generate income over an extended
period of time. We borrow funds on a secured and unsecured basis to finance the
purchase of real estate and we intend to continue to do so in the future.

Our rental properties are generally leased to corporate tenants under operating
leases substantially all of which are noncancellable. Substantially all of our
lease agreements are net lease arrangements that require the tenant to pay not
only rent, but also substantially all of the operating expenses of the leased
property including maintenance, taxes, utilities and insurance. A majority of
our lease agreements provide for periodic rental increases and certain of our
other leases provide for increases based on the consumer price index.

In the latter part of 2001 and in 2002, we entered into two joint ventures
organized for the purpose of acquiring and owning megaplex stadium-style movie
theaters. We own a 25% equity interest in the first joint venture organized for
this purpose and a 50% equity interest in the second joint venture organized for
this purpose. These joint ventures have acquired one partial stadium-style movie
theater and eight megaplex stadium-style movie theaters for a total
consideration of $97.7 million. Our equity investment in these ventures at March
31, 2003 was approximately $20 million, net of distributions from the joint
ventures. Venturers holding at least 75% of the aggregate membership interests
in both these joint ventures must approve all material decisions, except for
property acquisitions which require unanimous approval.




At March 31, 2003, excluding mortgages payable of our unconsolidated joint
ventures, we had 23 outstanding mortgages payable, aggregating approximately
$78.3 million in principal amount, all of which are secured by first liens on
individual real estate investments with an aggregate carrying value of
approximately $122 million before accumulated depreciation. The mortgages bear
interest at fixed rates ranging from 6.0% to 8.8%, and mature between 2003 and
2017.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 and 2002
- --------------------------------------------------------

Revenues

Our revenues consist primarily of rental income from tenants in our rental
properties. We have also, through joint ventures, invested in megaplex movie
theaters. Our equity investment in movie theater joint ventures was $20 million
at March 31, 2003, net of distributions from the joint ventures.
Rental income increased by $826,000, or 22.6%, to $4.5 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2003 from $3.7 million for the three months ended March
31, 2002. The rental income increase is due to $885,000 of rental income earned
on four properties acquired by us between September 2002 and February 2003. This
increase in rental income was partially offset by the contribution of our
leasehold position in an industrial property to a joint venture (in February
2002) and the vacancy of two retail properties.

Interest and other income increased by $147,000, or 774%, to $166,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2003 from $19,000 for the three months ended March
31, 2002. This increase was substantially due to $145,000 of interest income
earned on three mortgages, totaling $6.3 million, acquired by us in August 2002
in connection with a movie theater acquisition by one of our joint ventures.
These mortgages were repaid in full on May 2, 2003.

Our equity in the earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased by
$456,000, or 230%, to $654,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from
$198,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. Rental income earned on
eight movie theaters purchased by our two movie theater joint ventures at
various times between April 2002 and December 2002 caused $400,000 of this
increase. Another joint venture we participate in was organized in December 2002
and our equity share in the earnings of this joint venture for the three months
ended March 31, 2003 was $48,000.

We will continue to acquire, solely for our own account, improved commercial
properties in accordance with our business and investment strategies. We
anticipate that the acquisition of megaplex movie theaters will be made through
the existing or newly organized joint ventures, and we may from time to time
acquire other properties with joint venture partners.

Expenses
- --------

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $118,000, or 16.3%, to
$842,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $724,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in depreciation expense was primarily
due to the acquisition of three properties during 2002.

Interest-mortgages payable increased by $7,000, or 0.5%, to $1,509,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2003 from $1,502,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2002. This increase resulted from one mortgage placed on a property in
December 2002 and the assumption of a mortgage in connection with the purchase
of a property in February 2003, offset by a decrease in interest expense
resulting from the payoff of two mortgage loans during June 2002.

Interest-line of credit increased by $104,000 to $113,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2003 from $9,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This
increase resulted from our borrowing $10 million under our line of credit during
December 2002, which was used to purchase a property.

Leasehold rent expense decreased by $24,000 to zero for the three months ended
March 31, 2003 from $24,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This rent
expense was payable on the leasehold interest position that we contributed
during February 2002 to a joint venture in which we hold an approximately 36%
interest. Therefore, effective February 2002, we no longer paid leasehold rent.

General and administrative expenses increased $208,000, or 57.6% to $569,000 for
three months ended March 31, 2003 from $361,000 for the three months ended March
31, 2002. This increase was primarily due to a $126,000 increase in payroll and
payroll expenses, including approximately $105,000 for executive and support
personnel, primarily for legal and accounting services allocated to us pursuant
to a Shared Services Agreement between us and related entities. This increase in
the allocated payroll expenses resulted from an increase in our level of
business activity, primarily property acquisitions, the negotiation and
consummation of a new revolving credit facility, mortgage refinancings, lease
negotiations and regulatory compliance activities. The increase in payroll
expenses is also due to a $25,000 ($6,250 per quarter) increase in the base
salary and a $25,000 ($6,250 per quarter) bonus to our president and chief
executive officer. The balance of the increase in general and administrative
expenses is due to an increase in a number of items including professional fees
of approximately $42,000, travel expenses of approximately $8,000, a major
portion of which is related to our property acquisition activities, and state
taxes of approximately $8,000.

Real estate expenses increased by $34,000, or 103%, to $67,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2003 from $33,000 for the three months ended March 31,
2002. This increase was primarily due to utilities and real estate tax expenses
on our two vacant properties and non-recurring landlord repairs during the first
quarter of 2003.





Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

We had cash and cash equivalents of $3.3 million at March 31, 2003. Our primary
sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, our revolving credit
facility and cash generated from operating activities, including mortgage
financings. On March 31, 2003, we entered into a new credit agreement with
Valley National Bank, Merchants Bank Division and Bank Leumi, USA for a $30
million revolving credit facility. This facility, which replaced a $15 million
revolving credit facility, is available to us to pay down existing mortgages, to
fund the acquisition of additional properties or to invest in joint ventures.
The facility matures on March 21, 2005. Borrowings under the facility bear
interest at the bank's prime rate, currently 4.25%, and there is an unused
facility fee of one-quarter of 1% per annum. Net proceeds received from the sale
or refinancing of properties are required to be used to repay amounts
outstanding under the facility if proceeds from the facility were used to
purchase or refinance the property. The facility is guaranteed by our
subsidiaries that own unencumbered properties and shares of its subsidiaries are
pledged as collateral. At March 31, 2003, approximately $11.5 million was
outstanding under the facility.

On May 2, 2003, the movie theater joint ventures closed on mortgage financings
in the aggregate amount of $23.3 million secured by three unencumbered
properties and the Brooklyn movie theater property owned by the ventures. As a
result of these financings, we received approximately $13 million, including a
payoff of $6.2 million of mortgages on the Brooklyn theater held by us.
Simultaneous with the receipt of the funds, we repaid the entire $11.5 million
balance outstanding under the credit facility.

We, on our own behalf and on behalf of our joint ventures, are involved in
various stages of negotiation with respect to the acquisition of additional net
leased properties. The movie theater joint ventures will only acquire movie
theater properties. We will use the cash provided from operations, cash provided
from mortgage financings, including distributions from joint ventures resulting
from their mortgage financings, and our credit facility to fund any additional
acquisitions.

The following sets forth our contractual cash obligations as of March 31, 2003,
all of which relate to interest and amortization payments and balances due at
maturity under outstanding mortgages secured by our properties, for the periods
indicated (amounts in thousands):




Principal Balances Due
Total and Interest at Maturity
----- ------------ -----------


Due within 1 year $14,106 $ 7,010 $ 7,096
Due 1 to 3 years 23,408 12,899 10,509
Due 4 to 5 years 19,550 9,252 10,298
Due after 5 years 57,021 19,630 37,391



As of March 31, 2003, we had outstanding approximately $78.3 million in
long-term mortgage indebtedness (excluding mortgage indebtedness of our
unconsolidated joint ventures), all of which is non-recourse (subject to
standard carve-outs). We expect that debt service payments of approximately
$19.9 million due in the next three years will be paid primarily from cash
generated from our operations. We anticipate that loan maturities of
approximately $17.6 million due in the next three years will be paid primarily
from mortgage financings or refinancings. If we are not successful in
refinancing our existing indebtedness or financing our unencumbered properties,
our cash flow, funds available under our credit facility and available cash, if
any, may not be sufficient to repay all maturing debt when payments become due,
and we may be forced to sell additional equity or dispose of properties on
disadvantageous terms.

We had no outstanding contingent commitments, such as guarantees of
indebtedness, or any other contractual cash obligations at March 31, 2003.




Cash Distribution Policy
- ------------------------

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. To
qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational
requirements, including a requirement that we distribute currently at least 90%
of our ordinary taxable income to our stockholders. It is our current intention
to comply with these requirements and maintain our REIT status. As a REIT, we
generally will not be subject to corporate federal, state or local income taxes
on taxable income we distribute currently (in accordance with the Internal
Revenue Code and applicable regulations) to our stockholders. If we fail to
qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal, state and
local income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as
a REIT for four subsequent tax years. Even if we qualify for federal taxation as
a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and to
federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income (i.e.,
taxable income not distributed in the amounts and in the time frames prescribed
by the Internal Revenue Code and applicable regulations thereunder).

It is our intention to pay to our stockholders within the time periods
prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code no less that 90%, and, if possible, 100%
of our annual taxable income, including gains from the sale of real estate and
recognized gains on sale of securities. It will continue to be our policy to
make sufficient cash distributions to stockholders in order for us to maintain
our REIT status under the Internal Revenue Code.






Item 3. - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
-----------------------------------------------------------

All of our long-term debt bears interest at fixed rates, and therefore the fair
value of these instruments is affected by changes in the market interest rates.
The following table presents principal cash flows based upon maturity dates of
the debt obligations and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected
maturity dates for the fixed rate debt.

Scheduled
Principal
Year Ending Repayments Average
March 31, (In Thousands) Interest Rate
--------- ------------- -------------
2004 $ 8,358 7.74%
2005 1,427 7.74
2006 11,814 7.75
2007 6,696 7.68
2008 5,138 7.67
Thereafter 44,884 7.71
--------
Total $ 78,317 7.72
========

Fair Value $ 80,124 7.25%
========


Item 4. - Controls and Procedures
-----------------------

Our president and chief executive officer and senior vice president and chief
financial officer have participated in the design and implementation of our
disclosure controls and procedures and have evaluated the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this
quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on their evaluation they have concluded
that the controls and procedures are effective.

There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors
that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of the
evaluation. No significant deficiencies or material weaknesses were detected in
our internal controls and therefore no corrective actions were taken.
