NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes appearing in the Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. 2. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal accruals, necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial position at March 31, 2001, the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 and its cash flows for the three months then ended. 3. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. 4. Marketable securities at March 31, 2001 consist of 381,980 shares of common stock and 12,412 shares of Equity Stock, Series A of Public Storage, Inc., a publicly traded real estate investment trust and a general partner of the Partnership. We have designated our portfolio of marketable securities as available for sale. Accordingly, at March 31, 2001, we have recorded the marketable securities at fair value, based upon the closing quoted prices of the securities at March 31, 2001. Changes in market value of marketable securities are reflected as unrealized gains or losses directly in Partners' Equity and accordingly have no effect on net income. 5. During September 1998, we borrowed $21,000,000 from a commercial bank. The loan is unsecured and bears interest at the London Interbank Offering Rate, ("LIBOR") rounded up to the nearest .125% plus 0.60% to 1.20% depending on our interest coverage ratio (5.725% at March 31, 2001). The loan requires monthly payments of interest and matures September 2002. Principal may be paid, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium. 6 6. In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended in June 2000 by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138 ("SFAS 138"), "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," which requires companies to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure such instruments at fair value. As amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137 ("SFAS 137"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133," the provisions of SFAS 133 will require adoption by the Partnership on January 1, 2001. The Partnership adopted SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 138, on January 1, 2001, and the adoption had no material impact on the Partnership's consolidated financial statements. 7 PUBLIC STORAGE PROPERTIES IV, LTD. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS - -------------------------- When used within this document, the words "expects," "believes," "anticipates," "should," "estimates," and similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, and in Section 21F of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may cause the actual results and performance of the Partnership to be materially different from those expressed or implied in the forward looking statements. Such factors include the impact of competition from new and existing real estate facilities which could impact rents and occupancy levels at the real estate facilities that the Partnership has an interest in; the Partnership's ability to effectively compete in the markets that it does business in; the impact of the regulatory environment as well as national, state, and local laws and regulations including, without limitation, those governing Partnerships; and the impact of general economic conditions upon rental rates and occupancy levels at the real estate facilities that the Partnership has an interest in. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- Three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to three months ended March 31, 2000: Our net income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $1,575,000 compared to $1,284,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000, representing an increase of $291,000 or 23%. The increase was primarily a result of increased operating results at our real estate facilities and a decrease in interest expense. Rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $2,566,000 compared to $2,336,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000, representing an increase of $230,000 or 10%. The increase was attributable to higher rental rates. Annual realized rent for the three months ended March 31, 2001 increased to $13.01 per occupied square foot from $11.33 per occupied square foot for the three months ended March 31, 2000, a 14.8% increase. The weighted average occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse facilities were 92% and 94% for each of the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Cost of operations (including management fees paid to affiliate) for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $706,000 compared to $669,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000, representing a increase of $37,000 or 6%. Interest expense decreased $89,000 to $115,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2001 from $204,000 in the same period in 2000. The decrease is attributable to a lower outstanding principal balance. 8 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- Cash flows from operating activities ($1,913,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001) have been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the Partnership. During September 1998, we borrowed $21,000,000 from a commercial bank. The loan is unsecured and bears interest at the London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") rounded up to the nearest .125% plus 0.60% to 1.20% depending on our interest coverage ratio (5.725% at March 31, 2001). The loan requires monthly payments of interest and matures September 2002. Principal may be paid, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium. 9 PART II.
