1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation

Heartland was formed on October 6, 1988.  Heartland's  existence will continue
until  December  31,  2065,  unless  extended  or  dissolved  pursuant  to the
provisions of Heartland's partnership agreement.

Heartland was organized to engage in the ownership,  purchasing,  development,
leasing,  marketing,  construction  and sale of real  estate  properties.  CMC
Heartland  Partners ("CMC") is an operating  general  partnership owned 99.99%
by Heartland and .01% by Heartland  Technology,  Inc. ("HTI"),  formerly known
as Milwaukee  Land Company  ("MLC").  HTI is the general  partner of Heartland
(in  such  capacity,   the  "General  Partner").   In  July,  1993,  Heartland
Development  Corporation  ("HDC"),  a Delaware  corporation,  wholly-owned  by
Heartland,  formed CMC Heartland Partners I, Limited Partnership  ("CMCLP"), a
Delaware limited  partnership,  to undertake a planned housing  development in
Rosemount,  Minnesota  ("Bloomfield or Rosemount").  CMC has a 100% membership
interest in CMC  Heartland  Partners I  ("CMCI"),  CMC  Heartland  Partners II
("CMCII"),  CMC Heartland  Partners III ("CMCIII"),  CMC Heartland Partners IV
("CMCIV"),  CMC  Heartland  Partners V  ("CMCV"),  CMC  Heartland  Partners VI
("CMCVI"),  CMC Heartland  Partners VII ("CMCVII") and CMC Heartland  Partners
VIII  ("CMCVIII").  CMCI has been  formed to  develop a portion  of the Kinzie
Station property ("Kinzie Station Phase II") in Chicago,  IL. CMCII was formed
to participate in the Goose Island  Industrial  Park joint venture in Chicago,
Illinois.  CMCIII  was  formed  in 1997 to  develop a  portion  of the  Kinzie
Station property  ("Kinzie Station Phase I") in Chicago,  IL. CMCIV was formed
in 1998 and is developing  approximately 177 acres in Fife,  Washington.  CMCV
was formed in 1996 to  acquire  finished  lots,  sell and  construct  homes in
Osprey Cove ("Osprey"),  a master-planned  residential community in St. Marys,
GA.  CMCVII was formed in 1998 to acquire lots and engage in sales,  marketing
and  construction  of homes in the Longleaf  Country Club,  Southern Pines, NC
("Southern  Pines or  Longleaf").  CMCVI and  CMCVIII  were  formed at various
times to  acquire  and hold  future  acquisitions.  CMC also  owns 100% of the

common  stock of  Lifestyle  Communities,  Ltd.  ("LCL")  which  serves as the
exclusive  sales agent in the St.  Marys,  Southern  Pines and Kinzie  Station
Phase I and II  developments.  LCL is also the general  contractor  in the St.
Marys  development.  CMC  owns  100% of the  stock of  Lifestyle  Construction
Company,  Inc.  ("LCC")  which  serves  as the  general  contractor  in  North
Carolina.  Except as otherwise noted herein,  references herein to "Heartland"
or the "Company" include CMC, HDC, CMCLP,  CMCI, CMCII,  CMCIII,  CMCIV, CMCV,
CMCVI,  CMCVII,  CMCVIII,  LCL and LCC. The consolidated  financial statements
include the accounts of Heartland.  All  intercompany  transactions  have been
eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The  preparation  of  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.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues from housing and land sales are  recognized in the period which title
passes and cash is received.

Investment in Joint Venture

Investment in joint  venture  represents  recording of the Company's  interest
under  the  equity   method  of   accounting.   Under  the  equity  method  of
accounting,  the Company recorded its initial interest at cost and adjusts its
investment  account for additional  capital  contributions,  distributions and
its share of joint venture income or loss.

Segment Reporting

The Company has two primary  reportable  business  segments,  which consist of
land sales and property development (See Note 5 to the Consolidated  Financial
Statements).

Property

Properties  are  carried  at  their   historical  cost.   Expenditures   which
significantly  improve the values or extend useful lives of the properties are
capitalized.  Predevelopment  costs  including  interest,  financing fees, and
real estate taxes that are  directly  identified  with a specific  development
project are  capitalized.  Repairs and  maintenance  are charged to expense as
incurred.

                                 (Unaudited)

Housing inventories,  (including  completed model homes),  consisting of land,
land  development,   direct  and  indirect   construction  costs  and  related
interest, are recorded at cost which is not in excess of fair value.

Housing inventories consisted of the following at June 30, 2001 (amounts in
thousands):

      Land under development...............      $ 4,657

      Direct construction costs............        5,813

      Capitalized project costs............        4,362
                                                 -------

                                                 $14,832
                                                 =======
In December,  1999,  Heartland decided to cease building  operations in Osprey
Cove.  The homes and lots are being sold in the ordinary course of business.

2.  Contingencies

At June 30,  2001,  Heartland's  allowance  for  claims  and  liabilities  was
approximately  $4.3  million of which $0.3 million was for the  resolution  of
non-environmental  claims  and  $4  million  was  for  environmental  matters.
Significant  legal  proceedings  and  contingencies  are discussed in the 2000
Form 10-K.  On July 15,  1999 and again on  February  20,  2001,  the  Company
modified its October 1, 1998  settlement  agreement with the Port of Tacoma in
which the Port of Tacoma  released  all claims  against  the  Company  and the
Company agreed either to (a) pay $1.1 million on or before  December 31, 2001,
plus  interest  from January 1, 1999, or (b) convey real property to be agreed
upon at a later date.

On December 2, 2000,  the  Redevelopment  Authority  of the City of  Milwaukee
("RACM")  filed suit in Milwaukee  County  Circuit  Court to obtain  access to
appraise,  survey and conduct  environmental and geo-technical  investigations
on certain  property  owned by the Company  adjacent to the Milwaukee  Brewers
baseball  stadium in  furtherance of RACM's efforts to acquire the property by
condemnation.  Heartland has  vigorously  opposed  certain  elements of RACM's
request  for access and right to  proceed.  Management  is not able to express
an opinion at this time as to the merits of this action.

As part of the Company's sale of certain  property in Milwaukee,  Wisconsin to
the State of  Wisconsin,  in  December,  2000,  for  $1,400,000,  the  Company
undertook to cause a lessee of part of the  property to  surrender  its lease.
By  Settlement  Agreement  dated July 5, 2001,  the lessee agreed to surrender
its lease in  consideration,  among  other  things,  of the  payment  from the
Company of $126,000.  This amount was paid to the lessee in July, 2001.

3.  Notes Payable

Heartland  has a line of credit  agreement  in the amount of $9.6 million with
LaSalle  National  Bank  ("LNB"),  pursuant to which  Heartland  granted LNB a
first  lien  on  certain  parcels  of land in  Chicago,  Illinois,  Milwaukee,
Wisconsin and Fife,  Washington  which had a carrying value of $12,878,000 and
$11,328,000  as of June 30, 2001 and  December  31,  2000,  respectively.  The
Company has also pledged as collateral  its interest in the Goose Island Joint
Venture  which has a carrying  value of $427,000 and $377,000 at June 30, 2001
and  December  31, 2000,  respectively.  Also,  pursuant to the line of credit
agreement,  Heartland  has  pledged  cash in the  amount of  $1,150,000  as an
interest  reserve.  The  maturity  date of the line of credit is December  31,
2001.  Advances  against the line of credit bear interest at the prime rate of
LNB plus 1.5%  (8.25% at June 30,  2001).  At June 30, 2001 and  December  31,
2000,  $6,600,000  and  $9,000,000,  respectively,  had been  advanced  to the
Company by LNB against the line of credit.

At Osprey Cove in St.  Marys,  Georgia,  the First  National Bank of St. Marys
("FNB") in Georgia has made two loans on two  inventory  homes of $170,000 and
$235,000  to  the   Company.   The   carrying   value  of  the  two  homes  is
approximately  $558,000  at June 30,  2001.  The loans  mature on October  12,
2001 and  January  5,  2002,  respectively.  The loans  bear  interest  at the
London Interbank  Offering Rate plus 3.35% and 3.85%,  respectively  (7.1% and
7.6% at June 30,  2001).  At June 30,  2001,  $405,000  had been  advanced  to
Heartland on the two loans.

As of December 8, 2000,  Heartland has an agreement for a $3,000,000 revolving
line of  credit  for the  construction  of  homes  in its  Longleaf  community
located in Southern Pines,  NC with Bank One of Illinois  ("Bank One").  Also,
on December 8, 2000,  Heartland  borrowed  $250,000  from Bank One to purchase
the remaining  lots owned by the developer of Longleaf.  The carrying value of
the  collateral for these two loans at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, is
$3,167,000 and $3,577,000,  respectively.  The line of credit and the $250,000
loan mature April 12, 2002 and bear  interest at the prime rate (6.75% at June
30,  2001).   At  June  30,  2001  and  December  31,  2000,   $1,199,000  and
$1,383,000,  respectively, had been advanced by Bank One to Heartland on these
two loans.

On January 30, 2001, the final principal and interest  payment was made on the
$5,250,000  Kinzie  Station Plaza  building  loan.  On February 23, 2001,  the
Company  amended this loan agreement with Bank One, and borrowed an additional
$3,000,000,  of which  $2,500,000  remains  outstanding  at June 30, 2001, and
changed the maturity  date of the loan to February  23,  2002.  The loan bears
interest at the prime rate (6.75% at June 30, 2001).

4. Related Party Transactions

Heartland has a management agreement with Heartland  Technology,  Inc. ("HTI")
pursuant to which  Heartland is required to pay HTI an annual  management  fee
in the amount of $425,000  until June 27,  2005.  The  management  fee for the
first six months of 2001 of  $212,000  has been  accrued as an expense and was
credited against amounts owed the Company by HTI.

Under  a  management   services  agreement,   HTI  reimburses   Heartland  for
reasonable  and  necessary  costs and expenses  for  services.  These  totaled
$460,000  for the six months ended June 30,  2001.  Heartland  also makes cash
advances to HTI. HTI owed the Company  $6,929,000  and  $4,581,000  as of June
30, 2001 and December 31, 2000,  respectively,  related to these  expenses and
cash advances.  On December 29, 2000, HTI executed a line of credit promissory
note that is due on demand,  payable to Heartland in the amount of $6,000,000.
At that  time,  HTI  granted  the  Company  a Series C Warrant  that  entitles
Heartland to purchase  320,000 shares of HTI common stock at an exercise price
of $1.05.  The warrant is exercisable  on or before  February 16, 2006. On May
11, 2001,  HTI executed an additional  line of credit  promissory  note in the
amount of  $1,000,000.  On July 3, 2001, the  $1,000,000  promissory  note was
cancelled and a replacement  line of credit  promissory  note in the amount of
$1,500,000  was executed.  The line of credit  promissory  notes bear interest
at 13% on June  30,  2001.  The  total of the two  line of  credit  promissory
notes is  $7,500,000.  As  collateral  for these two  notes,  HTI Class B, LLC
pledged,  on  December  14,  2000,  to  Heartland  a senior  lien and a senior
security interest in the Heartland Class B Limited Partnership  Interest owned
by HTI Class B, LLC.

On March 31, 2001,  the two Kinzie  Station Phase I model homes (a one bedroom
unit and a two bedroom unit) and furniture  were  purchased by two officers of
the  Company at fair  market  value.  Heartland  has leased  these model homes
back from the officers  starting  April 1, 2001 and ending April 1, 2004.  The
monthly rent on the one bedroom  model is $2,350 and on the two bedroom  model
is $4,200.  The leases contain standard  insurance and maintenance  clauses as
customary in these types of leases.

                           HEARTLAND PARTNERS, L.P.
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                JUNE 30, 2001
                                 (Unaudited)

(1)   The Land Sales business segment  consists of approximately  14,052 acres
       of land located  throughout 12 states for sale as of June 30, 2001, and
       the related rentals, sales and marketing and operating expenses.

(2)   The Property  Development business segment consists of the approximately
       536 acres  representing  13 sites that  Heartland  is in the process of
       developing or homebuilding  communities in which Heartland is currently
       acquiring  finished  lots,  selling  and  building  homes.  The related
       selling and  operating  expenses are also  reported  for this  business
       segment.

(3)   The  Corporate  level  consists of  portfolio  income from  investments,
       salaries and general and administrative  expenses for the employees and
       occupied  commercial  space  at  Kinzie  Station  Phase  I  located  in
       Chicago, Illinois.

6. Employee Compensation Arrangements

The  President  and  Chief  Executive  Officer  of the  Company  will  receive
commencing  January 1, 2000 and  continuing  thereafter  during the time he is
employed  incentive  payments  equal to 1/2% of the net proceeds from sales of
certain real estate after  deducting any debt  obligations,  closing costs and
any real estate  brokers  commission.  As of December 31, 2000 and for the six
months  ended June 30,  2001,  $73,000  and  $66,000,  respectively,  had been
accrued  as  compensation  expense  under  this  plan.  As of June  30,  2001,
$113,000 had been paid to the  President  and Chief  Executive  Officer by the
Company.  On October 18, 2000,  the President and Chief  Executive  Officer of
Heartland  borrowed  $375,000  from the  Company,  of which  $330,000  remains
outstanding  at June 30, 2001 and is  included as part of accounts  receivable
at June 30, 2001.  The note is due October 17,  2005,  and interest is payable
quarterly at the rate of 11% per year.  On October 17,  2000,  an amendment to
the employment  agreement  authorizes the Company to deduct from any incentive
payment made to him 40% of that payment and apply it to his  outstanding  note
due to the  Company.  As a result  of this  amendment,  $45,000  of the  above
described payment of $113,000 was applied to the outstanding note balance.

Effective  January 1, 2000,  the Company  approved the CMC Heartland  Partners
Incentive  Plan ("CMC Plan") and the Sales  Incentive  Plan ("Sales  Plan") to
provide incentives to attract,  retain or motivate highly competent  employees
of the Company.  The  aggregate  benefits  payable under the CMC Plan shall be
computed by multiplying  the following  percentages (3% for the years 2000 and
2001,  2% for the year 2002 and 1% for the year 2003) by the net proceeds from
the sale of certain land parcels  during those years.  The aggregate  benefits
payable  under the Sales  Plan shall be  computed  by  multiplying  3% for the
years 2000 and 2001 by the net  proceeds  from the sale of certain real estate
during  those  years.  As of December  31,  2000 and for the six months  ended
June 30,  2001,  $533,000  and  $305,000,  respectively,  had been  accrued as
compensation  expense under the plans. As of June 30, 2001,  $220,000 had been
paid to the Officers by the Company.

7. Subsequent Event

On August 10, 2001, the Kinzie Station Phase II 1.2  acre  commercial property
sold to a developer for use as a  parking facility  closed at a sales price of
$2,937,000. At that time the LNB line of credit was reduced by $2,600,000. The
outstanding amount owed LNB is $4,000,000 at August 10, 2001.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward Looking Statements

We caution you that certain  statements  in the  Management's  Discussion  and
Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and  Results of  Operations  section,  and
elsewhere  in this  Form  10-Q are  "forward-looking  statements"  within  the
meaning   of  the   Private   Securities   Litigation   Reform  Act  of  1995.
Forward-looking  statements  are not  guarantees of future  performance.  They
involve risks,  uncertainties and other important factors, including the risks
described in the Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition
and  Results of  Operations  section,  and  elsewhere  in this Form 10-Q.  The
Company's  actual future  results,  performance  or achievement of results and
the  value of the  partnership  Units,  may  differ  materially  from any such
results,  performance or achievement or value implied by these statements.  We
caution you not to put undue  reliance  on any  forward-looking  statement  in
these  documents.  The Company  claims the  protections of the safe harbor for
forward-looking   statements  contained  in  Section  21E  of  the  Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash flow from operating  activities has been derived  primarily from proceeds
of property  sales.  Cash was $3,564,000  (including  $1,902,000 of restricted
cash) at June 30, 2001,  and  $2,849,000  (including  $2,699,000 of restricted
cash) at December 31, 2000.

Net cash  provided by operating  activities  was  $4,693,000  in the first six
months of 2001,  compared to  ($769,000)  used in operating  activities in the
first six months of 2000.  The  increase  in net cash  provided  by  operating
activities of $5,462,000 is mainly  attributable to the  significant  decrease
of  housing  inventories  in the first  six  months of 2001 as a result of the
closing of sold units in Kinzie Station Phase I.

Development Property

At June 30, 2001,  property  designated for development  consisted of 13 sites
comprising  approximately 536 acres. The book value of this land is $9,474,000
or an average of $17,700  per acre.  Heartland  reviews  these  properties  to
determine  whether  to hold,  develop,  joint  venture  or  sell.  Heartland's
objective for these properties is to maximize unitholder value.

Kinzie Station

Heartland  has a 3.88  acre  site  in the  City of  Chicago  known  as  Kinzie
Station.  Zoning approval for the  construction  of 381  residential  units on
this 3.88 acre site was received in 1997. On March 28, 2001,  zoning  approval
to increase  the total number of  residential  units from 381 to 442 units was
received  from the City of Chicago.  In  addition  to the 3.88 acre site,  the
Company owns  approximately 9 acres of land and 4 acres of air rights adjacent
to  Kinzie  Station.  This  acreage  is  currently  zoned for  industrial  and
manufacturing  uses.  The  Company has  entered  into a  contract,  subject to
various contingencies,  to sell a 1.66 acre parcel of this land to a developer
for approximately $2,000,000.

Other Development Activities

Heartland,  along with Colliers,  Bennett and Kahnweiler, a Chicago based real
estate  company,  and  Wooton  Construction,  have  formed a joint  venture to
develop  approximately  265,000  square feet of industrial  space in the Goose
Island  Industrial  Park in  Chicago,  Illinois.  As of  June  30,  2001,  the
buildings  had been built and leases  had been  signed for all of the  265,000
square feet.

On  December  1,  1998,  the Fife  property  was  annexed to the City of Fife,
Washington.  A Local  Improvement  District  has  been  approved  in  order to
support the  improvement  and  extension of sewers and sewer  capacity for the
site.  The  city of  Fife  has  zoned  the  property  for  residential  usage.
Heartland has prepared and submitted the  Environmental  Impact  Statement and
the  preliminary  site  plan  for the  site to the  City  for  acceptance  and
approval.  On July 23, 2001, the Fife Planning Commission voted unanimously to
recommend  and approve the  preliminary  site plan.  The Fife City  Council is
scheduled to meet in September, 2001 on this matter.

The real estate  development  business  is highly  competitive.  Heartland  is
subject  to  competition  from a  great  number  of  real  estate  developers,
including  developers  with  national  operations,  many of which have greater
sales and financial resources than Heartland.

Property Sales and Leasing Activities

The  Company  has the right to sell  easements  for fiber optic lines along or
across 83 miles of rail right of way running  from  downtown  Chicago  west to
Elgin and  Northwest  to Fox Lake,  Illinois.  The  Company  actively  markets
fiber optics  easements and is seeking  opportunities  to generate  additional
proceeds  through the sale of these  rights.  The Company  receives 2/3 of the
proceeds of any sale.

Heartland's  current  inventory of land held for sale consists of 14,052 acres
located   throughout  12  states.   The  book  value  of  this   inventory  is
approximately   $732,000.   The  majority  of  the  land  is  former  railroad
rights-of-way,  long,  narrow strips of land  approximately 100 feet in width.
Some of  Heartland's  sites  located in small  rural  communities  or outlying
mid-cities are leased to third parties for  agricultural,  industrial,  retail
and  residential  use.  These  properties  may be improved  with the  lessee's
structures and include grain elevators,  storage sheds, parking lots and small
retail service facilities.

The sale, management and leasing of the Company's  non-development real estate
inventory  is  conducted  by   Heartland's   Sales  and  Property   Management
Department.  The volume of the  Company's  sales has slowed over the last five
years due to the less desirable characteristics of the remaining properties.

The  Company  has a  current  active  lease  portfolio  of  approximately  150
leases.  Less than 1% of its total  acreage  is  leased.  The number of leases
declines each year as sales of properties  are made to existing  lessees.  The
majority  of the  leases  provide  nominal  rental  income to  Heartland.  The
leases  generally  require the lessee to  construct,  maintain  and remove any
improvements,   pay  property  taxes,  maintain  insurance  and  maintain  the
condition  of the  property.  The  majority of the leases are  cancellable  by
either  party  upon  thirty  to sixty  days  notice.  Heartland's  ability  to
terminate or modify  certain of its leases is restricted by applicable law and
regulations.

For  properties  held for sale, an impairment  loss is recognized  when the fair
value  of the  property,  less the  estimated  cost to  sell,  is less  than the
carrying amount of the property.

It is the Company's practice to evaluate  environmental  liabilities  associated
with the Company's  properties.  Heartland  monitors the  potential  exposure to
environmental  costs on a regular  basis and has  recorded  a  liability  in the
amount of $4 million at June 30, 2001 for  possible  environmental  liabilities,
including remediation,  legal and consulting fees. A reserve is established with
regard  to  potential  environmental  liabilities  when  it is  probable  that a
liability  has been  incurred and the amount of the  liability can be reasonably
estimated.  The amount of any  liability is  determined  independently  from any
claim  for  recovery.  If the  amount  of the  liability  cannot  be  reasonably
estimated,  but management is able to determine that the amount of the liability
is  likely  to fall  within a range,  and no  amount  within  that  range can be
determined to be the better  estimate,  then a reserve in the minimum  amount of
the range is accrued.

In  addition,   Heartland  has   established  an  allowance  for  resolution  of
non-environmental claims of $.3 million.

Heartland does not at this time anticipate that these claims or assessments will
have a  material  effect on the  Company's  liquidity,  financial  position  and
results of operations  beyond the reserve which the Company has  established for
such claims and assessments.  In making this evaluation, the Company has assumed
that the Company will continue to be able to assert the  bankruptcy  bar arising
from the  reorganization  of its  predecessor  and that  resolution  of  current
pending  and  threatened  claims and  assessments  will be  consistent  with the
Company's experience with similar previously asserted claims and assessments.

While the  timing of the  payment in  respect  of  environmental  claims has not
significantly  adversely  affected the  Company's  cash flow or liquidity in the
past,  management is not able to reasonably  anticipate  whether future payments
may or may not have a significant adverse effect in the future.

Heartland's  management  believes it will have  sufficient  funds  available for
operating expenses, but anticipates the necessity of utilizing outside financing
to fund  development  projects.  As of June 30, 2001,  the Company had a line of
credit with LaSalle National Bank ("LNB") in the amount of $9.6 million. Cash in
the amount of $1,150,000 is pledged as an interest  reserve.  The line of credit
matures December 31, 2001.  Advances against the line of credit bear interest at
the prime  rate of LNB plus 1.5%  (8.25% at June 30,  2001).  At June 30,  2001,
$6,600,000  had been  advanced to the Company by LNB against the line of credit.
On August 10, 2001,  the Kinzie  Station Phase II 1.2 acre  commercial  property
sold to a  developer  for use as a parking  facility  closed at a sales price of
$2,937,000.  At that time the LNB line of credit was reduced by $2,600,000.  The
outstanding  amount owed LNB is $4,000,000 at August 10, 2001. If the $1,150,000
interest  reserve was applied to the outstanding note balance on August 10, 2001
of $4,000,000, Heartland would owe LNB $2,850,000.

Results of Operations

Operations  for the  second  quarter  and six  months  ended  June  30,  2001,
resulted in net income of $3,232,000  and  $5,426,000,  respectively.  For the
second  quarter and six months  ended June 30, 2001,  the income  allocated to
the Class A Limited Partners is $3,184,000 and $5,345,000,  respectively,  and
$1.49  and $2.50 per Class A Unit,  respectively.  Operations  for the  second
quarter  and six  months  ended  June 30,  2000,  resulted  in net  income  of
$4,235,000  and  $3,316,000,  respectively.  The income was allocated  100% to
the Class B Limited Partner.

For the second  quarter  and six months  ended  June 30,  2000,  no income was
allocated  to the  Class  A  Unitholders  because  the  partnership  agreement
provides  that if an  allocation  of a net loss to a partner  would cause that
partner to have a negative  balance in its capital  account at a time when one
or more partners would have a positive  balance in their capital  account such
net loss shall be allocated only among partners  having  positive  balances in
their capital account.  In the prior periods losses were allocated only to the
Class B  Limited  Partner.  However,  the  Class A  Limited  Partners  Capital
accounts  have been  restored to a positive  balance and income for the second
quarter  and the  first  six  months  of 2001  were  allocated  to the Class A
Limited Partners according to their proper percentage.

The  increase  in net income for the first six months of 2001  compared to the
net  income  in the  first  six  months  of 2000 of  $2,110,000  is due to the
closing of 28 Tower and Plaza units at Kinzie Station Phase I producing  gross
revenues of  $9,065,000  and the closing of two parcels of land  comprising  a
total of 235  acres in  Bloomfield  located  in  Rosemount,  Minnesota  for an
aggregate sales price of $9,175,000.

Total  operating  expenses were  $3,028,000  and  $2,909,000 for the first six
months ending June 30, 2001, and 2000, respectively.  The increase of $119,000
is due to  increased  selling  expenses of $498,000  primarily  related to the
closing of the Kinzie  Station  Phase I units offset by a reduction in general
and administrative expenses of $359,000.

Economic and Other Conditions Generally

The real  estate  industry  is highly  cyclical  and is affected by changes in
local,   national,   and  global  economic  conditions  and  events,  such  as
employment  levels,  availability  of  financing,   interest  rates,  consumer
confidence  and the demand for housing and other types of  construction.  Real
estate  developers are subject to various risks, many of which are outside the
control of the developer,  including real estate market  conditions,  changing
demographic  conditions,  adverse  weather  conditions and natural  disasters,
such  as  hurricanes,   tornados,   delays  in  construction  schedules,  cost
overruns,  changes in government  regulations  or  requirements,  increases in
real estate taxes and other local  government fees and  availability  and cost
of land,  materials and labor.  The  occurrence of any of the foregoing  could
have a material adverse effect on the financial conditions of Heartland.

                           HEARTLAND PARTNERS, L.P.
                                JUNE 30, 2001

Access to Financing

The real estate business is capital  intensive and requires  expenditures  for
land  and  infrastructure   development,   housing  construction  and  working
capital. Accordingly,  Heartland anticipates incurring additional indebtedness
to fund  their  real  estate  development  activities.  As of June  30,  2001,
Heartland's total consolidated  indebtedness was $10,704,000.  There can be no
assurance that the amounts available from internally  generated funds, cash on
hand,  Heartland's existing credit facilities and sale of non-strategic assets
will be sufficient to fund Heartland's anticipated  operations.  Heartland may
be  required  to  seek  additional  capital  in the  form  of  equity  or debt
financing  from a variety of  potential  sources,  including  additional  bank
financing  and sales of debt or equity  securities.  No assurance can be given
that such  financing  will be  available  or, if  available,  will be on terms
favorable  to  Heartland.   If  Heartland  is  not   successful  in  obtaining
sufficient  capital to fund the  implementation  of its business  strategy and
other  expenditures,  development  projects may be delayed or  abandoned.  Any
such  delay or  abandonment  could  result in a  reduction  in sales and would
adversely affect Heartland's future results of operations.

Period-to-Period Fluctuations

Heartland's  real estate  projects  are  long-term in nature.  Sales  activity
varies  from period to period,  and the  ultimate  success of any  development
cannot always be determined from results in any particular  period or periods.
Thus, the timing and amount of revenues arising from capital  expenditures are
subject to  considerable  uncertainty.  The  inability  of Heartland to manage
effectively  their cash flows from operations  would have an adverse effect on
their ability to service debt, and to meet working capital requirements.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The  Company's   total   consolidated   indebtedness   at  June  30,  2001  is
$10,704,000.  The Company pays interest on its  outstanding  borrowings  under
revolving  credit  facilities  and fixed  loan  amounts at the prime rate plus
0.00% to 1.5%.  An adverse  change of 1.00% in the prime  rate would  increase
the quarterly interest incurred by approximately $27,000.

The Company does not have any other  financial  instruments for which there is
a significant exposure to interest rate changes.

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

At June 30,  2001,  Heartland's  allowance  for  claims  and  liabilities  was
approximately  $4.3  million.  During the six months  ended June 30,  2001,  a
decrease of approximately  $28,000 in the provision was recorded in respect to
environmental matters. Material legal matters are discussed below.

Soo Line Matters

The Soo Line  Railroad  Company (the "Soo") has  asserted  that the Company is
liable for certain  occupational injury claims filed after the consummation of
an  Asset  Purchase   Agreement  and  related  agreements  ("APA")  by  former
employees  now employed by the Soo. The Company has denied  liability for each
of these  claims  based on a prior  settlement  with the Soo. The Soo has also
asserted  that the  Company  is liable  for the  remediation  of  releases  of
petroleum or other  regulated  materials at six different  sites acquired from
the Company located in Iowa,  Minnesota and Wisconsin.  The Company has denied
liability based on the APA.

The occupational and  environmental  claims are all currently being handled by
the Soo, and the Company  understands the Soo has paid  settlements on many of
these claims.  As a result of Soo's exclusive  handling of these matters,  the
Company  has made no  determination  as to the  merits  of the  claims  and is
unable to determine the materiality of these claims.

Tacoma, Washington

In June,  1997,  the Port of Tacoma  ("Port")  filed a complaint in the United
States  District  Court for the Western  District of Washington  alleging that
the Company was liable under  Washington  state law for the cost of the Port's
remediation  of a  railyard  sold in 1980 by the  bankruptcy  trustee  for the
Company's predecessor to the Port's predecessor in interest.

On October, 1, 1998, the Company entered into a Settlement  Agreement with the
Port,  subsequently modified July 15, 1999 and February 20, 2001, in which the
Port  released  all  claims  and the  Company  agreed  either  to (a) pay $1.1
million on or before  December 31, 2001,  plus  interest from January 1, 1999,
or (b) to  convey  to the Port  real  property  to be  agreed  upon at a later
date. At June 30, 2001,  Heartland's  allowance for claims and liabilities for
this site was $1,100,000.

The  Company  will not make a claim on its  insurance  carriers in this matter
because  the  settlement  amount  does not exceed the self  insured  retention
under the applicable insurance policies.

Wheeler Pit, Janesville, Wisconsin

In  November,  1995,  the Company  settled a claim with respect to the Wheeler
Pit  site  near   Janesville,   Wisconsin.   The  Company's  only  outstanding
obligation  under the  settlement  is to pay 32% of the  monitoring  costs for
twenty-five years beginning in 1997.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin

On December 2, 2000,  the  Redevelopment  Authority  of the City of  Milwaukee
("RACM")  filed suit in Milwaukee  County  Circuit  Court to obtain  access to
appraise,  survey and conduct  environmental and geo-technical  investigations
on certain  property  owned by the Company  adjacent to the Milwaukee  Brewers
baseball  stadium in  furtherance of RACM's efforts to acquire the property by
condemnation.  Heartland has  vigorously  opposed  certain  elements of RACM's
request  for access and right to  proceed.  Management  is not able to express
an opinion at this time as to the merits of this action.

As part of the Company's sale of certain  property in Milwaukee,  Wisconsin to
the State of  Wisconsin,  in  December,  2000,  for  $1,400,000,  the  Company
undertook to cause a lessee of part of the  property to  surrender  its lease.
By  Settlement  Agreement  dated July 5, 2001,  the lessee agreed to surrender
its lease in  consideration,  among  other  things,  of the  payment  from the
Company of $126,000.  This amount was paid to the lessee in July, 2001.

Miscellaneous Environmental Matters

Under environmental laws,  liability for hazardous substance  contamination is
imposed on the current owners and operators of the contaminated  site, as well
as the owner or the operator of the site at the time the  hazardous  substance
was disposed or otherwise  released.  In most cases, this liability is imposed
without  regard to  fault.  Currently,  the  Company  has known  environmental
liabilities  associated  with  certain of its  properties  arising  out of the
activities of its predecessor or certain of its predecessor's  lessees and may
have further material  environmental  liabilities as yet unknown. The majority
of  the  Company's  known  environmental  liabilities  stem  from  the  use of
petroleum  products,  such as motor oil and diesel fuel, in the operation of a
railroad  or  in  operations  conducted  by  its  predecessor's  lessees.  The
following is a summary of material known  environmental  matters,  in addition
to those described above.

The Montana Department of Environmental  Quality ("DEQ") has asserted that the
Company  is liable for some or all of the  investigation  and  remediation  of
certain  properties  in  Montana  sold  by  its  predecessor's  reorganization
trustee prior to the  consummation of its  predecessor's  reorganization.  The
Company  has  denied  liability  at  certain  of  these  sites  based  on  the
reorganization  bar of the Company's  predecessors.  The  Company's  potential
liability for the  investigation  and remediation of these sites was discussed
in detail at a meeting  with DEQ in April,  1997.  While DEQ has not  formally
changed  its  position,  DEQ has not elected to file suit.  Management  is not
able to express an opinion  at this time  whether  the cost of the  defense of
this  liability or the  environmental  exposure in the event of the  Company's
liability will or will not be material.

                           HEARTLAND PARTNERS, L.P.
                                JUNE 30, 2001

At twelve separate sites,  the Company has been notified that releases arising
out of the  operations  of a lessee,  former  lessee or other third party have
been reported to government agencies.  At each of these sites, the third party
is voluntarily  cooperating with the appropriate  agency by investigating  the
extent of any such  contamination and performing the appropriate  remediation,
if any.

The  Company  has  petroleum  groundwater  remediation  projects  or long term
monitoring programs at Farmington, Minnesota, and Miles City, Montana.

The Company has an interest in property at Moses Lake,  Washington  previously
owned  and used by the  United  States  government  as an Air  Force  base.  A
portion  of the  Company's  property  is located  over a well field  which was
placed on the national  priority list in October,  1992.  Sampling by the Army
Corps of Engineers has indicated the presence of various regulated  materials,
primarily in the  groundwater,  which were most likely released as a result of
military or other third party operations.  The Company has not been named as a
potentially responsible party.

In 1995,  at a 5.95  acre  parcel  in  Minneapolis,  Minnesota,  environmental
sampling  disclosed  that the parcel was  impacted by  releases  of  regulated
materials  from  the  1960s  operations  of  a  former  lessee.   The  Company
continues  to  investigate  the  environmental  condition of the property on a
voluntary   basis  under  the  direction  of  the   Minnesota   Department  of
Agriculture.

Sampling  performed in November,  2000, has indicated the presence of solvents
in the groundwater  under certain  property owned by the Company in Milwaukee,
Wisconsin.  Management  will not be able to determine the  materiality  of the
remediation  costs, if any, of these materials  until the  concentrations  and
location of the release has been quantified.

In addition to the environmental  matters set forth above,  there may be other
properties,  i), with environmental  liabilities not yet known to the Company,
or ii), with potential environmental  liabilities for which the Company has no
reasonable  basis to estimate or, iii), which the Company believes the Company
is  not  reasonably   likely  to  ultimately  bear  the  liability,   but  the
investigation  or  remediation  of  which  may  require  future  expenditures.
Management  is not  able to  express  an  opinion  at this  time  whether  the
environmental expenditures for these properties will or will not be material.

The  Company  has given  notice to its  insurers  of certain of the  Company's
environmental liabilities.  Due to the high deductibles on these policies, the
Company  has not yet  demanded  that  any  insurer  indemnify  or  defend  the
Company.  Consequently,  management  has not formed an opinion  regarding  the
legal sufficiency of the Company's claims for insurance coverage.

The  Company is also  subject to other  suits and claims  which have arisen in
the ordinary  course of  business.  In the opinion of  management,  reasonably
possible  losses from these  matters  should not be material to the  Company's
results of operations or financial condition.
