HOUSTON--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--American Spectrum Realty, Inc. (AMEX:AQQ) (athe Companya), a real investment, management and leasing company headquartered in Houston, Texas, announced today that it has amended its Form 10-Qa™s for the quarterly periods ending June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

As previously disclosed in its Form 8-K filed on March 31, 2011 and in its 2010 Form 10-K, the Company concluded that it was appropriate to revise its accounting treatment of its purchase of assets from Evergreen Realty Group and to account for certain acquired interests as variable interest entities (VIEa™s) and to consolidate those VIEa™s in its financial statements from various dates in 2010.

The restated financial statements for the quarterly periods ending June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 accounts for the January 2010 Evergreen acquisition as a business combination rather than an asset acquisition and consolidates multiple VIEa™s in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company previously amended its Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2010 on May 13, 2011. It will not be necessary for the Company to amend its 2010 Form 10-K which was filed on March 31, 2011.
