AVALONBAY COMMUNITIES INC. ANNOUNCES
FIRST QUARTER 2006 OPERATING RESULTS

(Alexandria, VA) AvalonBay Communities, Inc. (NYSE: AVB) reported today that Net Income Available to Common Stockholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was $111,902,000. This resulted in Earnings per Share diluted (EPS) of $1.49 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, compared to $0.92 for the comparable period of 2005, a per share increase of 62.0%. This increase is primarily attributable to the timing and volume of gains on the sale of assets in the quarter ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the same period of 2005, coupled with growth in income from existing and newly developed communities.

Funds from Operations attributable to common stockholders diluted (FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was $86,844,000, or $1.15 per share compared to $71,249,000, or $0.96 per share for the comparable period of 2005, a per share increase of 19.8%. FFO per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 includes $0.17 per share related to the sale of a land parcel. FFO per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 includes several non-routine items totaling $0.07 per share. Adjusting for these non-routine items in both periods, FFO per share increased 10.1%, driven primarily by improved community operating results and contributions from newly developed communities.

Commenting on the Companys results, Bryce Blair, Chairman and CEO said, We enjoyed double-digit FFO growth, which was driven by 7.5% NOI growth. This was our strongest operating performance in five years and underscores the increasing value of our operating portfolio and of our communities under development and in planning.

Operating Results for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2006 Compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2005

For the Company, including discontinued operations, total revenue increased by $6,787,000, or 4.0% to $176,789,000. For Established Communities, rental revenue increased 6.1%, comprised of an increase in Average Rental Rates of 5.0% and an increase in Economic Occupancy of 1.1%. As a result, total revenue for Established Communities increased $7,802,000 to $135,487,000. Operating expenses for Established Communities increased $1,177,000 or 2.9% to $41,897,000.

The Company completed development of Avalon at Bedford Center during the first quarter of 2006 for a Total Capital Cost of $25,300,000. Avalon at Bedford Center is a garden-style and townhome community containing 139 apartment homes and is located in the Boston, MA area.

In addition, the Company commenced construction of two communities during the first quarter of 2006: Avalon on the Sound II, a high-rise community located in the New York, NY area, and Avalon Meydenbauer, a mid-rise community located in the Seattle, WA area. These two communities are expected to contain an aggregate of 956 apartment homes when completed for a Total Capital Cost of $268,500,000.

The Company commenced redevelopment of two communities during the first quarter of 2006: 200 Arlington Place, located in the Chicago, IL area, and Avalon Walk, a two-phase community located in the Fairfield-New Haven, CT area. These communities contain an aggregate of 1,173 apartment homes. The expected Total Capital Cost to redevelop these communities is $18,700,000, excluding costs incurred prior to the start of redevelopment.

Disposition Activity

During the first quarter of 2006, the Company sold two communities, Avalon Estates, located in the Boston, MA area, and Avalon Cupertino, located in San Jose, CA. These two communities, which contained a total of 473 apartment homes, were sold for an aggregate sales price of $122,550,000. The sale of these two communities resulted in a gain as reported in accordance with GAAP of $65,419,000 and an Economic Gain of $51,469,000.

In April 2006, the Company sold Avalon Corners, located in the Fairfield-New Haven, CT area. This community contained 195 apartment homes and was sold for a price of $60,200,000. This resulted in a GAAP gain of approximately $31,900,000 and an Economic Gain of approximately $26,800,000.

The weighted average Initial Year Market Cap Rate related to these three communities was 4.4%, and the Unleveraged IRR over an approximate eight year weighted average holding period was 16.6%. The buyers of these three assets intend to continue to operate these communities as rental apartments.

In addition, the Company sold a parcel of land located in the Northern NJ area during the first quarter of 2006, for a sales price of $15,000,000. This land parcel was purchased in 1997 in connection with the development of the Tower at Avalon Cove, which was sold in December 2005. The sale of this land parcel resulted in a GAAP gain and an Economic Gain of $13,166,000.

Investment Activity

During the first quarter of 2006, AvalonBay Value Added Fund, L.P. (the Fund), the private, discretionary investment vehicle in which the Company holds an equity interest of approximately 15%, acquired one community, Aurora at Yerba Buena for $66,000,000. Aurora at Yerba Buena is a mixed-use community located in San Francisco, CA, containing 160 apartment homes and 32,000 square feet of fully leased retail space. The Companys pro rata share of the capital invested in this acquisition is approximately $10,000,000.

In addition, the Company transferred the assets of Avalon at Juanita Village, a 211 apartment-home community located in the Seattle, WA area, to a joint venture entity. The Company completed construction of Avalon at Juanita Village at the end of 2005 for a Total Capital Cost of $45,300,000. The Company was reimbursed for the Total Capital Cost upon transfer of the assets to the joint venture. The Company does not hold an equity interest in the joint venture, but retained a promoted residual interest in the profits of the entity.

Financing, Liquidity and Balance Sheet Statistics

As of March 31, 2006, the Company had no outstanding balance under its $500,000,000 unsecured credit facility. Leverage, calculated as total debt as a percentage of Total Market Capitalization, was 21.8% at March 31, 2006. Unencumbered NOI for the year ended March 31, 2006 was approximately 85% and Interest Coverage for the first quarter of 2006 was 3.3 times.

The Company currently has an effective shelf registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. During the first quarter of 2006, the Company increased its debt and equity capacity under its shelf registration statement to $750,000,000.

Second Quarter and Full Year Outlook

The Company expects EPS in the range of $1.36 to $1.40 for the second quarter of 2006. The Company expects EPS in the range of $3.79 to $3.93 for the full year 2006.

The Company expects Projected FFO per share in the range of $0.97 to $1.01 for the second quarter of 2006. The sale of the land parcel in the first quarter of 2006 was not included in the full year 2006 Projected FFO range provided on January 24, 2006. The Company is increasing its outlook for Projected FFO per share to a range of $4.18 to $4.32 for the full year 2006.

(1)		Schedule does not include one community (Avalon Del Rey) that is being developed under a joint venture arrangement, but is currently wholly-owned and therefore consolidated for financial reporting purposes.

(2)		See Attachment #12 Definitions and Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Terms.

(3)		These unconsolidated real estate investments are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. AVB Book Value Investment represents the Companys recorded equity investment plus the Companys pro rata share of outstanding debt.

(4)		Debt can be prepaid after February 2008 without penalty.

(5)		This communitys debt is a combination of two separate fixed rate loans which both mature in August 2013. The first loan totals $18,154 at a 5.04% interest rate and was assumed by the Company in the purchase of this community. The second loan was procured in connection with the acquisition in the amount of $5,652 at a 6.08% interest rate. The rate listed in the table above represents a blended interest rate.

(6)		Amounts are outstanding under the Funds unsecured credit facility. The interest rate is a blended average of the outstanding balance.

(7)		After the venture makes certain distributions to the third-party partner, the Company will generally be entitled to receive 40% of all operating cash flow distributions and 49% of all residual cash flow following a sale.

(8)		After the venture makes certain distributions to the third-party partner, the Company generally receives 50% of all further distributions.

(9)		The maturity date as reflected on this attachment may be extended to September 2010 upon exercise of two one-year extension options.

Attachment 12

AvalonBay Communities, Inc.
Definitions and Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Terms

This release, including its attachments, contains certain non-GAAP financial measures and other terms. The definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures and other terms may differ from the definitions and methodologies used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable. The non-GAAP financial measures referred to below should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and therefore should not be considered as an alternative measure of liquidity or as indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

FFO is determined based on a definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). FFO is calculated by the Company as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for gains or losses on sales of previously depreciated operating communities, extraordinary gains or losses (as defined by GAAP), cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle and depreciation of real estate assets, including adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Management generally considers FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance because, by excluding gains or losses related to dispositions of previously depreciated operating communities and excluding real estate depreciation (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a companys real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. A reconciliation of FFO to net income is as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Q1			Q1
	2006			2005
Net income	$	114,077		$	69,610
Dividends attributable to preferred stock		(2,175	)		(2,175	)
Depreciation real estate assets, including discontinued operations and joint venture adjustments		40,262			40,950
Minority interest, including discontinued operations		99			477
Gain on sale of previously depreciated real estate assets		(65,419	)		(37,613	)

FFO attributable to common stockholders	$	86,844		$	71,249


Average shares outstanding diluted		75,290,124			74,258,296

EPS diluted	$	1.49		$	0.92

FFO per common share diluted	$	1.15		$	0.96

Projected FFO, as provided within this release in the Companys outlook, is calculated on a consistent basis as historical FFO, and is therefore considered to be an appropriate supplemental measure to projected net income of projected operating performance. A reconciliation of the range provided for Projected FFO per share (diluted) for the second quarter and full year 2006 to the range provided for projected EPS (diluted) is as follows:


	Low			High
	range			range
Projected EPS (diluted) Q2 06	$	1.36		$	1.40
Projected depreciation (real estate related)		0.53			0.57
Projected gain on sale of operating communities		(0.92	)		(0.96	)

Projected FFO per share (diluted) Q2 06	$	0.97		$	1.01


Projected EPS (diluted) Full Year 2006	$	3.79		$	3.93
Projected depreciation (real estate related)		2.17			2.21
Projected gain on sale of operating communities		(1.78	)		(1.82	)

Projected FFO per share (diluted) Full Year 2006	$	4.18		$	4.32

Attachment 12 (continued)

NOI is defined by the Company as total property revenue less direct property operating expenses (including property taxes), and excludes corporate-level income (including management, development and other fees), corporate-level property management and other indirect operating expenses, investments and investment management, net interest expense, general and administrative expense, joint venture income, minority interest, depreciation expense, gain on sale of real estate assets and income from discontinued operations. The Company considers NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income of operating performance of a community or communities because it helps both investors and management to understand the core operations of a community or communities prior to the allocation of corporate-level property management overhead or general and administrative costs. This is more reflective of the operating performance of a community, and allows for an easier comparison of the operating performance of single assets or groups of assets. In addition, because prospective buyers of real estate have different overhead structures, with varying marginal impact to overhead by acquiring real estate, NOI is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful measure for determining the value of a real estate asset or groups of assets.

A reconciliation of NOI (from continuing operations) to net income, as well as a breakdown of NOI by operating segment, is as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Q1			Q1
	2006			2005
Net income	$	114,077		$	69,610
Property management and other indirect operating expenses		8,631			7,129

NOI as reported by the Company does not include the operating results from discontinued operations (i.e., assets sold or held for sale as of March 31, 2006). A reconciliation of NOI from communities sold or held for sale to net income for these communities is as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Q1		Q1

Attachment 12 (continued)

Projected NOI, as used within this release for certain Development and Redevelopment Communities and in calculating the Initial Year Market Cap Rate for dispositions, represents managements estimate, as of the date of this release (or as of the date of the buyers valuation in the case of dispositions), of projected stabilized rental revenue minus projected stabilized operating expenses. For Development and Redevelopment Communities, Projected NOI is calculated based on the first year of Stabilized Operations, as defined below, following the completion of construction. In calculating the Initial Year Market Cap Rate, Projected NOI for dispositions is calculated for the first twelve months following the date of the buyers valuation. Projected stabilized rental revenue represents managements estimate of projected gross potential (based on leased rents for occupied homes and Market Rents, as defined below, for vacant homes) minus projected economic vacancy and adjusted for concessions. Projected stabilized operating expenses do not include interest, income taxes (if any), depreciation or amortization, or any allocation of corporate-level property management overhead or general and administrative costs. The weighted average Projected NOI as a percentage of Total Capital Cost is weighted based on the Companys share of the Total Capital Cost of each community, based on its percentage ownership.

In this release the Company has not given a projection of NOI on a company-wide basis. Management believes that Projected NOI of the development and redevelopment communities, on an aggregated weighted average basis, assists investors in understanding managements estimate of the likely impact on operations of the Development and Redevelopment Communities (before allocation of any corporate-level property management overhead, general and administrative costs or interest expense) when they are complete and achieve stabilized occupancy. Given the different dates and fiscal years at which stabilization is projected for these communities, the projected allocation of corporate-level property management overhead, general and administrative costs and interest expense to communities under development or redevelopment is complex, impractical to develop, and of uncertain meaningfulness. Projected NOI of these communities is not a projection of the Companys financial performance or cash flow. There can be no assurance that the communities under development or redevelopment will achieve the Projected NOI used in the calculation of weighted average Projected NOI to Total Capital Cost.

Rental Revenue with Concessions on a Cash Basis is considered by the Company to be a supplemental measure to rental revenue in conformity with GAAP in helping investors to evaluate the impact of both current and historical concessions on GAAP based rental revenue and to more readily enable comparisons to revenue as reported by other companies. In addition, rental revenue (with concessions on a cash basis) allows an investor to understand the historical trend in cash concessions. A reconciliation of rental revenue from Established Communities in conformity with GAAP to rental revenue (with concessions on a cash basis) is as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Q1			Q1
	2006			2005
Rental revenue (GAAP basis)	$	135,412		$	127,619
Concessions amortized		4,015			5,489
Concessions granted		(1,776	)		(3,907	)

Rental revenue (with concessions on a cash basis)	$	137,651		$	129,201


% change GAAP revenue					6.1	%

% change cash revenue					6.5	%

Economic Gain is calculated by the Company as the gain on sale in accordance with GAAP, less accumulated depreciation through the date of sale and any other non-cash adjustments that may be required under GAAP accounting. Management generally considers Economic Gain to be an appropriate supplemental measure to gain on sale in accordance with GAAP because it helps investors to understand the relationship between the cash proceeds from a sale and the cash invested in the sold community. The Economic Gain for each of the communities presented is estimated based on their respective final settlement statements. A reconciliation of Economic Gain for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 to gain on sale in accordance with GAAP is presented on Attachment 11. For the disposition of Avalon Corners, which occurred subsequent to March 31, 2006, the Economic Gain of approximately $26,800,000 represents a GAAP gain of approximately $31,900,000 less accumulated depreciation of $5,100,000.

Interest Coverage is calculated by the Company as EBITDA from continuing operations, excluding land gains, divided by the sum of interest expense, net, and preferred dividends. Interest Coverage is presented by the Company because it provides rating agencies and investors an additional means of comparing our liquidity to that of other companies. EBITDA is defined by the Company as net income before interest income and expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization.

Attachment 12 (continued)

A reconciliation of EBITDA and a calculation of Interest Coverage for the first quarter of 2006 are as follows (dollars in thousands):


Net income	$	114,077
Interest expense, net		28,664
Depreciation expense		39,619
Depreciation expense (discontinued operations)		298


EBITDA	$	182,658


EBITDA from continuing operations	$	115,171
EBITDA from discontinued operations		67,487


EBITDA	$	182,658


EBITDA from continuing operations	$	115,171
Land gains		(13,166	)

EBITDA from continuing operations, excluding land gains	$	102,005


Interest expense, net		28,664
Dividends attributable to preferred stock		2,175

Interest charges		30,839


Interest coverage		3.3

In the calculations of EBITDA above, EBITDA from discontinued operations includes $65,419 in gain on sale of communities.

Total Capital Cost includes all capitalized costs projected to be or actually incurred to develop the respective Development or Redevelopment Community, or Development Right, including land acquisition costs, construction costs, real estate taxes, capitalized interest and loan fees, permits, professional fees, allocated development overhead and other regulatory fees, all as determined in accordance with GAAP. For Redevelopment Communities, Total Capital Cost excludes costs incurred prior to the start of redevelopment when indicated. With respect to communities where development or redevelopment was completed in a prior or the current period, Total Capital Cost reflects the actual cost incurred, plus any contingency estimate made by management. Total Capital Cost for communities identified as having joint venture ownership, either during construction or upon construction completion, represents the total projected joint venture contribution amount. For joint ventures not in construction, Total Capital Cost is equal to gross real estate value.

Initial Year Market Cap Rate is defined by the Company as Projected NOI of a single community for the first 12 months of operations (assuming no repositioning), less estimates for non-routine allowance of approximately $200 $300 per apartment home, divided by the gross sales price for the community. The gross sales price is adjusted for transaction costs and deferred maintenance in determining the Initial Year Market Cap Rate for acquisitions. Projected NOI, as referred to above, represents managements estimate of projected rental revenue minus projected operating expenses before interest, income taxes (if any), depreciation, amortization and extraordinary items. For this purpose, managements projection of operating expenses for the community includes a management fee of 3.0% 3.5%. The Initial Year Market Cap Rate, which may be determined in a different manner by others, is a measure frequently used in the real estate industry when determining the appropriate purchase price for a property or estimating the value for the property. Buyers may assign different Initial Year Market Cap Rates to different communities when determining the appropriate value because they (i) may project different rates of change in operating expenses and capital expenditure estimates and (ii) may project different rates of change in future rental revenue due to different estimates for changes in rent and occupancy levels. The weighted average Initial Year Market Cap Rate is weighted based on the gross sales price of each community (for dispositions) and on the expected total investment in each community (for acquisitions).

Unleveraged IRR on sold communities refers to the internal rate of return calculated by the Company considering the timing and amounts of (i) total revenue during the period owned by the Company and (ii) the gross sales price net of selling costs, offset by (iii) the undepreciated capital cost of the communities at the time of sale and (iv) total direct operating expenses during the period owned by the Company. Each of the items (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) are calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The calculation of Unleveraged IRR does not include an adjustment for the Companys general and administrative expense, interest expense, or corporate-level property management and other indirect operating expenses. Therefore, Unleveraged IRR is not a substitute for net income as a measure of our performance. Management

Attachment 12 (continued)

believes that the Unleveraged IRR achieved during the period a community is owned by the Company is useful because it is one indication of the gross value created by the Companys acquisition, development or redevelopment, management and sale of the community, before the impact of indirect expenses and Company overhead. The Unleveraged IRR achieved on the communities as cited in this release should not be viewed as an indication of the gross value created with respect to other communities owned by the Company, and the Company does not represent that it will achieve similar Unleveraged IRRs upon the disposition of other communities. The weighted average Unleveraged IRR for sold communities is weighted based on all cash flows over the holding period for each respective community, including net sales proceeds.

Leverage is calculated by the Company as total debt as a percentage of Total Market Capitalization. Total Market Capitalization represents the aggregate of the market value of the Companys common stock, the market value of the Companys operating partnership units outstanding (based on the market value of the Companys common stock), the liquidation preference of the Companys preferred stock and the outstanding principal balance of the Companys debt. Management believes that Leverage can be one useful measure of a real estate operating companys long-term liquidity and balance sheet strength, because it shows an approximate relationship between a companys total debt and the current total market value of its assets based on the current price at which the companys common stock trades. Changes in Leverage also can influence changes in per share results. A calculation of Leverage as of March 31, 2006 is as follows (dollars in thousands):


Total debt	$	2,300,186

Common stock		8,110,555
Preferred stock		100,000
Operating partnership units		16,667
Total debt		2,300,186

Total market capitalization		10,527,408


Debt as % of capitalization		21.8	%

Because Leverage changes with fluctuations in the Companys stock price, which occurs regularly, the Companys Leverage may change even when the Companys earnings, interest and debt levels remain stable. Investors should also note that the net realizable value of the Companys assets in liquidation is not easily determinable and may differ substantially from the Companys Total Market Capitalization.

Unencumbered NOI as calculated by the Company represents NOI generated by real estate assets unencumbered by outstanding secured debt as a percentage of total NOI generated by real estate assets. The Company believes that current and prospective unsecured creditors of the Company view Unencumbered NOI as one indication of the borrowing capacity of the Company. Therefore, when reviewed together with the Companys Interest Coverage, EBITDA and cash flow from operations, the Company believes that investors and creditors view Unencumbered NOI as a useful supplemental measure for determining the financial flexibility of an entity. A calculation of Unencumbered NOI for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 is as follows (dollars in thousands):


NOI for Established Communities	$	93,590
NOI for Other Stabilized Communities		14,287
NOI for Development/Redevelopment Communities		9,222
NOI for discontinued operations		2,068

Total NOI generated by real estate assets		119,167
NOI on encumbered assets		17,845

NOI on unencumbered assets		101,322


Unencumbered NOI		85.0	%

Established Communities are identified by the Company as communities where a comparison of operating results from the prior year to the current year is meaningful, as these communities were owned and had Stabilized Operations, as defined below, as of the beginning of the prior year. Therefore, for 2006, Established Communities are consolidated communities that have Stabilized Operations as of January 1, 2005 and are not conducting or planning to conduct substantial redevelopment activities within the current year. Established Communities do not include communities that are currently held for sale or planned for disposition during the current year.

Attachment 12 (continued)

Average Rental Rates are calculated by the Company as rental revenue in accordance with GAAP, divided by the weighted average number of occupied apartment homes.

Economic Occupancy is defined as total possible revenue less vacancy loss as a percentage of total possible revenue. Total possible revenue is determined by valuing occupied units at contract rates and vacant units at Market Rents. Vacancy loss is determined by valuing vacant units at current Market Rents. By measuring vacant apartments at their Market Rents, Economic Occupancy takes into account the fact that apartment homes of different sizes and locations within a community have different economic impacts on a communitys gross revenue.

Market Rents as reported by the Company are based on the current market rates set by the managers of the Companys communities based on their experience in renting their communities apartments and publicly available market data. Trends in market rents for a region as reported by others could vary. Market Rents for a period are based on the average Market Rents during that period and do not reflect any impact for cash concessions.

Non-Revenue Generating Capex represents capital expenditures that will not directly result in revenue earnings or expense savings.

Stabilized/Restabilized Operations is defined as the earlier of (i) attainment of 95% physical occupancy or (ii) the one-year anniversary of completion of development or redevelopment.

Average Rent per Home, as calculated for certain Development and Redevelopment Communities in lease-up, reflects (i) actual average leased rents for those apartments leased through the end of the quarter net of estimated stabilized concessions, (ii) estimated market rents net of comparable concessions for all unleased apartments and (iii) includes actual and estimated other rental revenue. For Development and Redevelopment Communities not yet in lease-up, Average Rent per Home reflects managements projected rents.
