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, 1997. 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 June 30, 1998, the results of its operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 and its cash flows for the three months then ended. 3. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. 4. Marketable securities at June 30, 1998 consist of 381,980 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 June 30, 1998, the Partnership has recorded the marketable securities at fair value, based upon the closing quoted prices of the securities at June 30, 1998. 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. The Partnership's mortgage note payable matures on October 1, 1998. On July 1, 1998, the Partnership paid off the mortgage note payable with cash reserves and with the proceeds of a $22,000,000 loan from Public Storage, Inc. The loan from Public Storage, Inc. bears interest at the fixed rate of 7.2% and matures June 30, 1999. The loan calls for monthly payments of interest only. Principal may be paid at any time without penalty. Public Storage, Inc. has also provided the Partnership with options to extend the loan term through June 2003. 6 PUBLIC STORAGE PROPERTIES IV, LTD. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997: The Partnership's net income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was $1,376,000 compared to $1,017,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997, representing an increase of $359,000 or 35%. The Partnership's net income for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was $732,000 compared to $541,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997, representing an increase of $191,000 or 35%. These increases are primarily a result of increased operating results at the Partnership's real estate facilities combined with a decrease in interest expense. Rental income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was $4,304,000 compared to $3,871,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 representing an increase of $433,000 or 11%. Rental income for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was $2,194,000 compared to $1,954,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997, representing an increase of $240,000 or 12%. These increases are primarily attributable to higher rental rates and occupancy levels at the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities. The weighted average occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse facilities were 94% and 91% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Realized rent for the six months ended June 30, 1998 increased to $.87 per occupied square foot from $.81 per occupied square foot for the six months ended June 30, 1997. Other income increased $3,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. This increase is primarily due to an increase in invested cash balances. Dividend income from marketable securities of affiliate increased $27,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997 due to an increase in the number of shares owned in 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. Cost of operations (including management fees paid to affiliate) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was $1,297,000 compared to $1,185,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997, representing an increase of $112,000 or 9%. Cost of operations (including management fees paid to affiliate) for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was $648,000 compared to $580,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997, representing an increase of $68,000 or 12%. This increase is mainly attributable to increases in management fees, property taxes and payroll expenses. Property taxes increased due to an increase in property tax rates at some of the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities. 7 Interest expense decreased $46,000 to $1,369,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $1,415,000 in the same period in 1997. This decrease is mainly attributable to a lower outstanding principal balances on the Partnership's notes payable. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- Cash flows from operating activities ($2,312,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998) have been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the Partnership. At June 30, 1998, the Partnership held 381,980 shares of common stock (marketable securities) with a fair value totaling $10,743,000 (cost basis of $6,091,000 at June 30, 1998) in Public Storage, Inc. The Partnership recognized $168,000 in dividends for the six months ended June 30, 1998. 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. On July 1, 1998, the Partnership paid off the mortgage note payable with cash reserves and with the proceeds of a $22,000,000 loan from Public Storage, Inc. The loan from Public Storage, Inc. bears interest at the fixed rate of 7.2% and matures June 30, 1999. The loan calls for monthly payments of interest only. Principal may be paid at any time without penalty. Public Storage, Inc. has also provided the Partnership with options to extend the loan term through June 2003. 8 PART II.
