DSI REALTY INCOME FUND IX (A Limited Partnership) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. GENERAL DSI Realty Income Fund IX (the "Partnership"), a limited partnership, has three general partners (DSI Properties, Inc., Robert J. Conway and Joseph W. Conway) and limited partners. The Partnership has acquired five mini-storage facilities located in Monterey Park and Azusa, California; Everett, Washington; and Romeoville and Elgin, Illinois. The Partnership has also entered into a joint venture with DSI Realty Income Fund VIII through which the Partnership has a 70% interest in a mini-storage facility in Aurora, Colorado. The Partnership is a general partner in the joint venture. The facilities were acquired from Dahn Corporation ("Dahn"). Dahn is not affiliated with the Partner- ship. Dahn is affiliated with other partnerships in which DSI Properties, Inc., Robert J. Conway and Joseph W. Conway are the general partners (see Note 4). The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared by the Company's management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regu- lations. Accordingly, the interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. However, the results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. 2. PROPERTY The Partnership owns five mini-storage facilities located in Monterey Park and Azusa, California; Everett, Washington; and Romeoville and Elgin, Illinois. The Partnership also owns a 70% interest in a mini-storage facility in Aurora, Colorado. As of June 30, 2008, the total cost and accumulated depreciation of the mini-storage facilities are as follows: June 30, December 31, 2008 2007 Land $ 2,729,790 $ 2,729,790 Buildings and equipment 11,129,105 11,129,105 Rental trucks under capital lease 210,138 210,138 ------------ ------------ Total 14,069,033 14,069,033 Less: Accumulated Depreciation (11,283,128) (11,253,591) ------------ ------------ Property - Net $ 2,785,905 $ 2,815,442 ============ ============ 3. NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT Net income per limited partnership unit is calculated by dividing the net income allocated to the limited partners by the number of limited partnership units outstanding during the period. 4. ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES AND GENERAL PARTNERS' INCENTIVE MANAGEMENT FEE Under the Agreement of limited Partnership, the general partners are to be allocated 1% of the net profits or losses from operations, and the limited partners are to be allocated the balance of the net profits or losses from operations in proportion to their limited partnership interests. The General Partners are also entitled to receive a percentage, based on a predetermined formula, of any cash distribution from the sale, other disposition or refinancing of the project. In addition, the General Partners are entitled to receive an incentive management fee for supervising the operations of the Partnership. The fee is to be paid in an amount equal to 9% per annum of the cash available for distribution on a cumulative basis, calculated as cash generated from operations less capital expenditures. 5. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Partnership has entered into a management agreement with Dahn to operate its mini-storage facilities. The management agreement provides for a management fee equal to 5% of gross revenue from operations, which is defined as the entire amount of all receipts from the renting or leasing of storage compartments and sale of locks. The management agreement is renewable annually. Dahn earned management fees equal to $48,095 and $38,651 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, $80,517 and $77,864 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Amounts payable to Dahn at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, were $13,030 and $12,871, respectively. In 2004, the Partnership entered into truck lease agreements with KMD Trucks, LLC ("KMD"). The president of Dahn, Brian Dahn, is also a member of KMD. Trucks are leased under 48-month leases with total monthly payments in the amount of $4,500. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. We are pleased to enclose the Partnership's unaudited consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2008. The following is Management's discussion and analysis of the Partnership's financial condition and results of its operations. For the three month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, total revenues increased 7.3% from $771,739 to $827,672 and total expenses decreased 8.3% from $521,312 to $477,951. Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture increased 25.9% from $30,559 to $38,481. As a result, net income increased 41.6% from $219,868 to $311,240 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2008, as compared to the same period in 2007. Rental revenue increased as a result of higher unit rental rates. Occupancy levels for the Partnership's six mini-storage facilities averaged 79.3% for the three- month period ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 79.47% for the same period in 2007. The Partnership is continuing its marketing efforts to attract and keep new tenants in its various mini-storage facilities. Operating expenses decreased approximately $52,600 (11.8%) due primarily to a decrease in maintenance and repair and depreciation expenses, partially offset by an increase in advertising, salaries and wages expenses. General and admini- strative expenses increased approximately $9,200 12.2% primarily as a result of an increase in legal and professional expense, partially offset by a decrease in state tax payments. Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture increased as a result of the higher net income at that facility. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2008, and 2007, total revenues increased 4.7% from $1,555,640 to $1,629,354 and total expenses decreased 13.5% from $1,076,767 to $930,922. Minority interest in income of real estate joint venture increased 23.1% from $62,672 to $77,126. As a result, net income increased 49.3% from $416,201 to $621,306 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, as compared to the same period in 2007. Rental revenue increased as a result of higher occupancy and unit rental rates. Occupancy levels for the Partnership's six mini-storage facilities averaged 79.9% for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 77.8% for the same period in 2007. Operating expenses decreased approximately $149,700 (16.4%) due primarily to decreases in legal, maintenance and repair and depreciation expenses, partially offset by increases in advertising and salaries and wages expenses. General and administrative expenses increased approximately $3,800 2.3% primarily as a result of an increase in legal and professional expense, partially offset by a decrease in state tax payments. Minority interest in income or real estate joint venture increased as discussed above. The General Partners plan to continue their policy of funding the continuing improvement and maintenance of Partnership properties with cash generated from operations. The Partnership's resources appear to be adequate to meet its needs. The General Partners anticipate distributions to the Limited Partners to remain at the current level for the foreseeable future. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk NONE Item 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Evaluation of Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures The Partnership evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was performed by the Partnership's Controller with the assistance of the Partnership's President and the Chief Executive Officer. These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in its periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the Commission's rules and forms, and that the informa- tion is communicated to the certifying officers on a timely basis. Based on this evaluation, the Partnership concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There have been no significant changes in the Partnership's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There have not been any changes in the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting.
