As previously reported, in October 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which became effective on January 1, 2002. SFAS No. 144 requires Duke Realty Corporation (the "Company") to report in discontinued operations the results of operations of a property that has either been disposed of or is classified as held for sale, unless certain conditions are met. SFAS No. 144 further requires the Company to reclassify results of operations from a property disposed or held for sale subsquent to December 31, 2002 as income from discontinued operations during prior reported periods. The purpose of this Current Report on Form 8-K is to set forth audited consolidated statements of operations of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, including a revised note thereto, which reflect the impact of the Company's adoption of SFAS No. 144.
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, the Company sold or held for sale four properties owned by the Company and not classified as assets held for sale as of December 31, 2002. The results of operations from such properties have been reclassified as income from discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. There is no effect on the previously reported net income available for common shareholders.
Management does not believe that adoption of SFAS No. 144 has a material effect on the Company's selected consolidated financial data or management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 as previously reported in the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
