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, 1996. 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, 1997, the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 and its cash flows for the three months then ended. 3. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. 4. Marketable securities at March 31, 1997 consist of 297,130 shares of common stock of Public Storage, Inc., a publicly traded real estate investment trust and a general partner of the Partnership. The Partnership has designated its portfolio of marketable securities as available for sale. Accordingly, at March 31, 1997, the Partnership has recorded the marketable securities at fair value, based upon the closing quoted prices of the securities at March 31, 1997. 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. 6 PUBLIC STORAGE PROPERTIES IV, LTD. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996: The Partnership's net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $476,000 compared to $375,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996, representing an increase of $101,000 or 27%. The increase is primarily a result of increased operating results at the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities combined with decreased interest expense. Rental income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $1,917,000 compared to $1,783,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996, representing an increase of $134,000 or 8%. This increase is primarily attributable to increased occupancy levels and rental rates at the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities. The weighted average occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse facilities were 90% and 86% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. Realized rent per occupied square foot increased from $.79 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 to $.81 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. Other income increased $21,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996. This increase is primarily due to an increase in invested cash balances. Cost of operations (including management fees paid to affiliate) for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $605,000 compared to $547,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996, representing an increase of $58,000 or 11%. This increase is mainly attributable to increases in management fees and property tax expenses. Property taxes increased due to an increase in property tax rates at some of the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities. In 1995, the Partnership prepaid eight months of 1996 management fees on its mini-warehouse operations, discounted at the rate of 14% effective rate to compensate for early payment. As a result, management fee expense for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was $8,000 lower than it would have been under the customary, undiscounted fee structure. Interest expense decreased $23,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996 due primarily to a lower outstanding loan balance in 1997 over 1996. 7 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- Cash flows from operating activities ($927,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997) have been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the Partnership. At March 31, 1997, the Partnership held 297,130 shares of common stock with a fair value totaling $8,617,000 (cost basis of $3,791,000 at March 31, 1997) in Public Storage, Inc. The Partnership recognized $65,000 in dividends for the three months ended March 31, 1997. From April 1, 1997 through May 5, 1997 the Partnership purchased an additional 8,100 shares of common stock in Public Storage, Inc. at an aggregate cost of $218,000. In the third quarter of 1991, quarterly distributions were discontinued to enable the Partnership to make principal payments that commenced in 1990 and to increase cash reserves in subsequent years through 1998, at which time the remaining principal balance is due. 8 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Items 1 through 4 are inapplicable. Item 5 Other Information ----------------- In May 1997, B. Wayne Hughes completed a cash tender offer, which had commenced in March 1997, pursuant to which B.
