-- Collection of Legacy Portfolio Loan. On July 31, 2008, the Company
collected approximately $18.4 million in connection with the substantial
settlement of a discounted loan, which was secured by the Evening Star
Building in Washington, D.C. As a result of this repayment, the Company
anticipates recognizing a pre-tax gain in the quarter ending September 30,
2008 of approximately $7.5 million. The Company's remaining investment is
a discounted mezzanine note with a carrying value of $3.6 million, which is
secured by a 5% interest in the property. This investment was not
generating material cash flow or income, thus the Company expects that this
transaction will be immediately accretive to both net income and cash flow.
-- Distressed Real Estate Venture. The Company entered into a $500.0
million joint venture with Varde Investment Partners, a Minnesota based
alternative asset manager. The Company intends to originate, invest in and
manage distressed real estate assets for the venture. To date, the Company
and Varde have purchased or entered into letters of intent to purchase
approximately $63.0 million of assets. The Company will be paid origination
fees, asset management fees and incentive fees.
-- Guidance. The Company projects that its earnings from continuing
operations (excluding non-recurring items) will be approximately $1.00 per
common share-diluted in fiscal 2009, which begins October 1, 2008.
-- Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations. The Company reported
adjusted income from continuing operations, a non-GAAP measure, of $1.4
million, or $0.08 per common share-diluted and $10.4 million, or $0.56 per
common share-diluted for the third fiscal quarter and nine months ended
June 30, 2008, respectively, as compared to $5.7 million, or $0.29 per
common share-diluted and $16.2 million, or $0.84 per common share-diluted
for the third fiscal quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2007,
respectively. A reconciliation of the Company's reported (loss) income
from continuing operations to adjusted income from continuing operations, a
non-GAAP measure, is included as Schedule I to this release.
-- Net (Loss) Income. The Company recorded non-cash charges of $14.2
million primarily related to residual interests underlying some of its
funds. In conjunction therewith, the Company reported a net loss of $8.0
million, or ($0.46) per common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2008,
and a net loss of $17.0 million, or ($0.97) per common share for the nine
months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to net income of $4.2 million or
$0.22 per common share-diluted for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, and
$14.7 million, or $0.76 per common share-diluted for the nine months ended
June 30, 2007.
-- Retail Capital Fundraising. The Company continued to see strong
demand from this channel, resulting in the completion of both LEAF
Equipment Leasing Income Fund III, L.P. ("LEAF III") ($120.0 million
raised) and Resource Real Estate Investors 6, L.P. ($35.0 million raised).
Since March 31, 2008, the Company has launched four funds through this
channel with targeted fundraising of approximately $300.0 million focused
on leasing, real estate, banks, and commercial debt.
-- Adjusted Revenue and Adjusted Operating Income. For the third quarter
and nine months ended June 30, 2008, the Company reported adjusted revenues
of $39.1 million and $141.4 million, respectively, as compared to $39.1
million and $95.7 million for the third quarter and nine months ended June
30, 2007, respectively. For the third quarter and nine months ended June
30, 2008, the Company reported adjusted operating income of $8.5 million
and $51.9 million, respectively, as compared to $19.5 million and $44.8
million for the third quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2007,
respectively. Adjusted revenues and adjusted operating income, both non-
GAAP measures, include $9.7 million and $17.5 million of pre-tax mark-to-
market adjustments on investments reported under the equity method of
accounting, for the third quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2008,
respectively. A reconciliation of the Company's reported revenues and
operating income to adjusted revenues and adjusted operating income is
included as Schedule II to this release.
-- Increased Assets Under Management. The Company increased its assets
under management to $18.8 billion, a $1.1 billion increase (6.1%) from the
quarter ended March 31, 2008 and a $2.0 billion increase (11.8%) from the
quarter ended June 30, 2007.
-- Acquired Management Contracts. The Company was successfully assigned
the management contracts of four Collateralized Loan Obligations totaling
approximately $1.3 billion, bringing the Company's total bank loan
portfolio to approximately $4.4 billion.
-- Reduced Balance Sheet Exposure. As of June 30, 2008, the Company
reduced its total borrowings outstanding to $574.5 million from $884.1
million at March 31, 2008, a decrease of 35%. Of that amount, $213.2
million is net liabilities consolidated under FIN 46-R as to which the
Company has no recourse, $274.8 million is non-recourse revolving credit
facilities at LEAF and $26.4 million is other debt, which includes a $9.9
million loan that was assumed by a real estate investment partnership after
June 30, 2008 and mortgage debt secured by properties owned by the
Company's subsidiaries. With proceeds from the repayment of the Evening
Star Building loan, the Company will continue to reduce its corporate level
secured revolving credit facilities which had $60.1 million outstanding at
June 30, 2008.
-- The Company continued to adjust its operations in light of market
conditions and, after valuation adjustments taken through June 30, 2008,
has materially reduced its exposure to future valuation adjustments to
approximately $3.9 million (net of tax) for trust preferred securities
reported as investments in unconsolidated entities and $7.6 million (net of
tax) for direct investments in collateralized debt obligations reported as
investment securities available-for-sale. The Company has no exposure to
valuation adjustments for residential mortgage-backed securities.
Jonathan Cohen, President and CEO of the Company, commented, "We continue
to make progress in reducing our balance sheet exposure to risk from the
2005-2007 financial fund management residuals. We are proud of our
accomplishments, which we have discussed in this earnings release, in that
we continue to: (1) raise assets under management in our core management
sectors; (2) expand our distressed real estate business which we think can
grow substantially over the next 24 months; (3) form new funds in our
retail channel where we launched four funds in the recent period targeted
to raise over $300 million; (4) pursue reductions in general and
administrative areas; and (5) target balance sheet reductions. During our
third quarter that ended on June 30, we continued to position Resource
America for changing opportunities and economic circumstances. In future
periods you can expect to see the Company's costs dropping significantly.
We thank you for your patience during fiscal 2008 and look forward to
returning to the previously high growing asset management firm we were in
previous years."

This press release contains supplemental financial information determined
by methods other than in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally
Accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company's
management uses this non-GAAP measure in its anlysis of the exclusion of
certain adjustments recorded in the Company's nine months ended June 30,
2008. Management believes the presentation of this financial measure
excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental
information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial
results of the Company. This disclosure should not be viewed as a
substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it
necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be
presented by other companies.

(2) During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2008, in connection
with substantial volatility and reduction in liquidity in the global
credit markets, the Company recorded several significant adjustments.
For comparability purposes, the Company is presenting adjusted income
from continuing operations because it facilitates the evaluation of the
Company without the effect of these adjustments. Adjusted income from
continuing operations should not be considered as an alternative to
(loss) income from continuing operations (computed in accordance with
GAAP). Instead, adjusted income from continuing operations should be
reviewed in connection with (loss) income from continuing operations in
the Company's consolidated financial statements, to help analyze how
the Company’s business is performing.
(3) Includes 885,000 and 1,057,000 diluted shares not used in the
calculation of loss from continuing operations per share-diluted for
