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.
General
- -------
PS Partners IV, Ltd. (the "Partnership") is a publicly held limited
partnership formed under the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act.
Commencing in December 1984, 128,000 units of limited partnership interest (the
"Units") were offered to the public in an interstate offering. The offering was
completed in July 1985.
The Partnership was formed to invest in and operate existing
self-service facilities offering storage space for personal and business use
(the "mini-warehouses") and to invest up to 40% of the net proceeds of the
offering in and operate existing office and industrial properties. The
Partnership's real estate investments consist of wholly-owned facilities and an
investment in a general partnership (SEI/PSP IV Joint Ventures, the "Joint
Venture") with Public Storage, Inc. ("PSI") (formerly known as "Storage
Equities, Inc."), a real estate investment trust ("REIT") organized as a
corporation under the laws of California.
In 1995, there was a series of mergers among Public Storage Management,
Inc. (which was the Partnership's mini-warehouse operator), Public Storage, Inc.
and their affiliates (collectively, "PSMI"), culminating in the November 16,
1995 merger (the "PSMI Merger") of PSMI into Storage Equities, Inc. In the PSMI
Merger, Storage Equities, Inc. was renamed "Public Storage, Inc." and it
acquired substantially all of PSMI's United States real estate operations and
became the operator of the mini warehouses of the Partnership and the Joint
Venture.
The Partnership's general partners (the "General Partners") are PSI and
B. Wayne Hughes ("Hughes"). PSI became a co-general partner in September 1993,
when PSI acquired the interest of PSI Associates, Inc. ("PSA"), an affiliate of
PSMI, relating to PSA's general partner capital contribution in the Partnership.
Hughes has been a general partner of the Partnership since its inception. Hughes
is the chairman of the board and chief executive officer of PSI, and Hughes and
members of his family (the "Hughes Family") are the major shareholders of PSI.
The Partnership is managed, and its investment decisions are made by Hughes and
the executive officers and directors of PSI. The limited partners of the
Partnership have no right to participate in the management or conduct of its
business affairs. PSI believes that it is the largest operator of mini-warehouse
facilities in the United States.
Through 1996, the business parks of the Joint Venture were managed by
Public Storage Commercial Properties Group, Inc. ("PSCPG") pursuant to a
Management Agreement. In January 1997, the Joint Venture and PSI and other
related partnerships transferred a total of 35 business parks to PS Business
Parks, L.P. ("PSBPLP"), formerly known as American Office Park Properties, L.P.,
an operating partnership formed to own and operate business parks in which PSI
has a significant interest. Included among the properties transferred were the
business parks of the Joint Venture in exchange for a partnership interest in
PSBPLP. Until March 17, 1998, the general partner of PSBPLP was American Office
Park Properties, Inc., an affiliate of PSI. On March 17, 1998, American Office
Park Properties, Inc. was merged into Public Storage Properties XI, Inc., which
2
changed its name to PS Business Parks, Inc. ("PSBP"). PSBP is a REIT affiliated
with PSI, and is publicly traded on the American Stock Exchange. As a result of
the merger, PSBP became the general partner of PSBPLP (which changed its name
from American Office Park Properties, L.P. to PS Business Parks, L.P.). See Item
13.
PSI's current relationship with the Partnership includes (i) the joint
ownership of 32 of the Partnership's 33 properties (which excludes the
properties transferred to PSBPLP in January 1997), (ii) PSI is a co-general
partner along with Hughes, who is chairman of the board and chief executive
officer of PSI, (iii) as of January 1, 1999, PSI owned approximately 56.13% of
the Partnership's limited partnership units, and (iv) PSI is the operator of the
33 properties in which the Partnership has an interest (these 33 properties are
referred to collectively hereinafter as the "Mini-Warehouse Properties").
Investments in Facilities
- --------------------------
The Partnership owns interests in 33 properties (excluding the
properties transferred to PSBPLP in January 1997); 32 of such properties are
owned by the Joint Venture. The Partnership originally acquired interests in 40
properties. Three of those properties were sold to the original seller during
1987 and another property was purchased during 1988. In addition, two
properties, with secured mortgage notes, were foreclosed upon in January 1991 by
the lender. Reference is made to the table in Item 2 for a summary of
information about the Partnership's properties.
The Partnership believes that its operating results have benefited from
favorable industry trends and conditions. Notably, the level of new
mini-warehouse construction has decreased since 1988 while consumer demand has
increased. In addition, in recent years consolidation has occurred in the
fragmented mini-warehouse industry.
Mini-warehouses
- ---------------
Mini-warehouses, which comprise the majority of the Partnership's
investments, are designed to offer accessible storage space for personal and
business use at a relatively low cost. A user rents a fully enclosed space which
is for the user's exclusive use and to which only the user has access on an
unrestricted basis during business hours. On-site operation is the
responsibility of resident managers who are supervised by area managers. Some
mini-warehouses also include rentable uncovered parking areas for vehicle
storage. Leases for mini-warehouse space may be on a long-term or short-term
basis, although typically spaces are rented on a month-to-month basis. Rental
rates vary according to the location of the property and the size of the storage
space.
Users of space in mini-warehouses include both individuals and large
and small businesses. Individuals usually employ this space for storage of,
among other things, furniture, household appliances, personal belongings, motor
vehicles, boats, campers, motorcycles and other household goods. Businesses
normally employ this space for storage of excess inventory, business records,
seasonal goods, equipment and fixtures.
The Mini-Warehouse Properties generally consist of three to seven
buildings containing an aggregate of between 326 to 5,231 storage spaces, most
of which have between 25 and 400 square feet and an interior height of
approximately 8 to 12 feet.
The Mini-Warehouse Properties experience minor seasonal fluctuations in
the occupancy levels of mini-warehouses with occupancies higher in the summer
months than in the winter months. The Partnership believes that these
fluctuations result in part from increased moving activity during the summer.
The Mini-Warehouse Properties are geographically diversified and are
generally located in heavily populated areas and close to concentrations of
apartment complexes, single family residences and commercial developments.
However, there may be circumstances in which it may be appropriate to own a
property in a less populated area, for example, in an area that is highly
visible from a major thoroughfare and close to, although not in, a heavily
populated area. Moreover, in certain population centers, land costs and zoning
restrictions may create a demand for space in nearby less populated areas.
3
As with most other types of real estate, the conversion of
mini-warehouses to alternative uses in connection with a sale or otherwise would
generally require substantial capital expenditures. However, the Partnership and
the Joint Venture do not intend to convert the Mini-Warehouse Properties to
other uses.
Business Parks
- --------------
Through 1996, the Joint Venture owned and operated three office
buildings, two of which are located in San Antonio, Texas and the other in
Houston, Texas. These business parks were transferred to PSBPLP in January 1997
in exchange for a partnership interest in PSBPLP.
Investment Objectives and Policies
- ----------------------------------
The Partnership's objectives are to (i) preserve and protect invested
capital, (ii) maximize the potential for appreciation in value of its
investments, (iii) provide Federal income tax deductions so that during the
early years of property operations a portion of cash distributions may be
treated as a return of capital for tax purposes, and therefore, may not
represent taxable income to the limited partners, and (iv) provide for cash
distributions from operations.
The Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2038, unless dissolved
earlier. Under the terms of the general partnership agreement with PSI, PSI has
the right to require the Partnership to sell all of the properties owned by the
Joint Venture (see Item 12(c)).
The Partnership engaged Lawrence R. Nicholson, MAI, a principal with
the firm of Nicholson-Douglas Realty Consultants, Inc. ("NDRC") to perform a
limited investigation and appraisal of the properties owned by the Partnership
and the Joint Venture. In a letter appraisal report dated May 13, 1996, NDRC
indicated that, based on the assumptions contained in the report, the aggregate
market value of the Mini-Warehouse Properties (consisting not only of the
Partnership's interest but also including PSI's interest), as of January 31,
1996, was $67,500,000. NDRC's report is limited in that NDRC did not inspect the
properties and relied primarily upon the income capitalization approach in
arriving at its opinion. NDRC's aggregate value conclusion represents the 100%
property interests, and although not valued separately, includes both the
interest of the Partnership in the properties, as well as the interest of PSI,
which owns a joint venture interest (ranging from about 49% to 50%) in 32 of the
Mini-Warehouse Properties. The analytical process that was undertaken in the
appraisal included a review of the properties' unit mix, rental rates and
historical financial statements. Following these reviews, a stabilized level of
net operating income was projected for the Mini-Warehouse Properties (an
aggregate of $6,968,000). Value estimates were then made using both a direct
capitalization analysis ($69,900,000) and a discounted cash flow analysis
($66,600,000). In applying the discounted cash flow analysis, projections of
cash flow from each property were developed for an 11-year period ending in the
year 2007. Growth rates for income and expenses were assumed to be 3.5% per
year. NDRC then used a terminal capitalization rate of 10.5% to capitalize each
property's 11th year net operating income into a residual value at the end of
the holding period. The ten yearly cash flows plus the residual or reversionary
proceeds net of sales costs were then discounted to present worth using a
discount rate of 13.25%. In the direct capitalization analysis, NDRC applied a
10.0% capitalization rate to the mini-warehouses' stabilized net operating
income. These value estimates were then compared to an estimated value
($66,200,000) using a regression analysis applied to approximately 300 sales of
mini-warehouses to evaluate the reasonableness of the estimates using the direct
capitalization and discounted cash flow analysis.
NDRC has prepared other appraisals for the General Partners and their
affiliates and is expected to continue to prepare appraisals for the General
Partners and their affiliates. No environmental investigations were conducted
with respect to the limited investigation of the Partnership's properties.
Accordingly, NDRC's appraisal did not take into account any environmental
cleanup or other costs that might be incurred in connection with a disposition
of the properties. Although there can be no assurance, based on recently
completed environmental investigations (see Item 2), the Partnership is not
aware of any environmental contamination of its facilities material to its
overall business or financial condition. In addition to assuming compliance with
applicable environmental laws, the appraisal also assumed, among other things,
compliance with applicable zoning and use regulations and the existence of
required licenses.
4
Limited Partners should recognize that appraisals are opinions as of
the date specified, are subject to certain assumptions and the appraised value
of the Partnership's properties may not represent their true worth or realizable
value. There can be no assurance that, if these properties were sold, they would
be sold at the appraised values; the sales price might be higher or lower than
the appraised values.
In February 1997, PSI completed a cash tender offer, which had
commenced in December 1996, pursuant to which PSI acquired a total of 14,787
additional limited partnership units at $300 per Unit.
Operating Strategies
- --------------------
The Mini-Warehouse Properties are operated by PSI under the "Public
Storage" name, which the Partnership believes is the most recognized name in the
mini-warehouse industry. The major elements of the Partnership's operating
strategies are as follows:
* Capitalize on Public Storage's name recognition. PSI, together with its
predecessor, has more than 20 years of operating experience in the
mini-warehouse business. PSI has informed the Partnership that it is
the largest mini-warehouse facility operator in the United States in
terms of both number of facilities and rentable space operated. PSI
believes that its marketing and advertising programs improve its
competitive position in the market. PSI's in-house Yellow Pages staff
designs and places advertisements in approximately 700 directories.
Commencing in early 1996, PSI began to experiment with a telephone
reservation system designed to provide added customer service.
Customers calling either PSI's toll-free referral system, (800)
44-STORE, or a mini-warehouse facility are directed to PSI's
reservation system where a trained representative discusses with the
customer space requirements, price and location preferences and also
informs the customer of other products and services provided by PSI. As
of December 31, 1998, the telephone reservation system was supporting
rental activity at all of the Partnership's properties. PSI's toll-free
telephone referral system services approximately 175,000 calls per
month from potential customers inquiring as to the nearest Public
Storage mini-warehouse.
* Maintain high occupancy levels and increase realized rents. Subject to
market conditions, the Partnership generally seeks to achieve average
occupancy levels in excess of 90% and to eliminate promotions prior to
increasing rental rates. Average occupancy for the Mini-Warehouse
Properties has increased from 89% in 1997 to 90% in 1998. Realized
monthly rents per occupied square foot increased from $.62 in 1997 to
$.65 in 1998. The Partnership has increased rental rates in many
markets where it has achieved high occupancy levels and eliminated or
minimized promotions.
* Systems and controls. PSI has an organizational structure and a
property operation system, "CHAMP" (Computerized Help and Management
Program), which links its corporate office with each mini-warehouse.
This enables PSI to obtain daily information from each mini-warehouse
and to achieve efficiencies in operations and maintain control over its
space inventory, rental rates, promotional discounts and delinquencies.
Expense management is achieved through centralized payroll and accounts
payable systems and a comprehensive property tax appeals department,
and PSI has an extensive internal audit program designed to ensure
proper handling of cash collections.
* Professional property operation. In addition to the approximately 170
support personnel at the Public Storage corporate offices, there are
approximately 2,700 on-site personnel who manage the day-to-day
operations of the mini-warehouses in the Public Storage system. These
on-site personnel are supervised by 120 district managers, 33 regional
managers and 11 divisional managers who report to the president of the
mini-warehouse property operator (who has 15 years of experience with
the Public Storage organization). PSI carefully selects and extensively
trains the operational and support personnel and offers them a
progressive career path. See "Mini-warehouse Property Operator."
5
Mini-warehouse Property Operator
- --------------------------------
The Mini-Warehouse Properties are managed by PSI pursuant to a
Management Agreement.
Under the supervision of the Partnership and the Joint Venture, PSI
coordinates the operation of the facilities, establishes rental policies and
rates, directs marketing activity and directs the purchase of equipment and
supplies, maintenance activity, and the selection and engagement of all vendors,
supplies and independent contractors.
PSI engages, at the expense of the property owner, employees for the
operation of the owner's facilities, including resident managers, assistant
managers, relief managers, and billing and maintenance personnel. Some or all of
these employees may be employed on a part-time basis and may also be employed by
other persons, partnerships, REITs or other entities owning facilities operated
by PSI.
In the purchasing of services such as advertising (including broadcast
media advertising) and insurance, PSI attempts to achieve economies by combining
the resources of the various facilities that it operates. Facilities operated by
PSI have historically carried comprehensive insurance, including fire,
earthquake, liability and extended coverage.
PSI has developed systems for space inventory, accounting and handling
delinquent accounts, including a computerized network linking PSI operated
facilities. Each project manager is furnished with detailed operating procedures
and typically receives facilities management training from PSI. Form letters
covering a variety of circumstances are also supplied to the project managers. A
record of actions taken by the project managers when delinquencies occur is
maintained.
The Mini-warehouse Properties are typically advertised via signage,
yellow pages, flyers and broadcast media advertising (television and radio) in
geographic areas in which many of the facilities are located. Broadcast media
and other advertising costs are charged to the facilities located in geographic
areas affected by the advertising. From time to time, PSI adopts promotional
programs, such as temporary rent reductions, in selected areas or for individual
facilities.
For as long as the Management Agreement is in effect, PSI has granted
the Partnership and the Joint Venture a non-exclusive license to use two PSI
service marks and related designs, including the "Public Storage" name, in
conjunction with rental and operation of facilities managed pursuant to the
Management Agreement. Upon termination of the Management Agreement, the
Partnership and the Joint Venture would no longer have the right to use the
service marks and related designs. The General Partners believe that the loss of
the right to use the service marks and related designs could have a material
adverse effect on the Partnership's business.
The Management Agreement with PSI provides that the Management
Agreement may be terminated without cause upon 60 days written notice by either
party.
Business Park Operator
- ----------------------
Through 1996, the business parks of the Joint Venture were managed by
PSCPG, now known as PS Business Parks, Inc., pursuant to a Management Agreement.
In January 1997, these properties were transferred to PSBPLP in exchange for a
partnership interest.
Competition
- -----------
Competition in the market areas in which the Mini-Warehouse Properties
operates is significant and affects the occupancy levels, rental rates and
operating expenses of certain of the facilities. Competition may be accelerated
by any increase in availability of funds for investment in real estate. Recent
increases in plans for development of mini-warehouses are expected to further
intensify competition among mini-warehouse operators in certain market areas. In
addition to competition from mini-warehouses operated by PSI, there are three
6
other national firms and numerous regional and local operators. The Partnership
believes that the significant operating and financial experience of PSI's
executive officers and directors and the "Public Storage" name, should enable
the Partnership to continue to compete effectively with other entities.
Other Business Activities
- -------------------------
A corporation owned by the Hughes Family reinsures policies against
losses to goods stored by tenants in the Mini-Warehouse Properties. The
Partnership believes that the availability of insurance reduces the potential
liability of the Partnership and the Joint Venture to tenants for losses to
their goods from theft or destruction. This corporation receives the premiums
and bears the risks associated with the insurance.
A corporation, in which PSI had a 95% economic interest and the Hughes
Family has a 5% economic interest, sells locks, boxes and tape to tenants to be
used in securing their spaces and moving their goods. PSI believes that the
availability of locks, boxes and tape for sale promotes the rental of spaces.
Employees
- ---------
There are 120 persons who render services on behalf of the Partnership
and the Joint Venture. These persons include resident managers, assistant
managers, relief managers, district managers, and administrative personnel. Some
of these employees may be employed on a part-time basis and may also be employed
by other persons, partnerships, REITs or other entities owning facilities
operated by PSI or PSBPLP.

The weighted average occupancy level for the Mini-Warehouse Properties
was 90% in 1998 compared to 89% in 1997. The monthly average realized rent per
square foot for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $.65 in 1998 compared to $.62
in 1997.
Substantially all of the facilities were acquired prior to the time
that it was customary to conduct extensive environmental investigations in
connection with the property acquisitions. During the fourth quarter of 1995, an
independent environmental consulting firm completed environmental assessments on
the Mini-Warehouse Properties to evaluate the environmental condition of, and
potential environmental liabilities of such properties. Although there can be no
assurance, the Partnership is not aware of any environmental contamination of
its facilities which individually or in the aggregate would be material to the
Partnership's overall business, financial condition, or results of operations.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
No material legal proceeding is pending against the Partnership or the
Joint Venture.

PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE PARTNERSHIP'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS.
The Partnership has no common stock.
The Units are not listed on any national securities exchange or quoted
on the NASDAQ System, and there is no established public trading market for the
Units. Secondary sales activity for the Units has been limited and sporadic. The
General Partners monitor transfers of the Units (a) because the admission of the
transferee as a substitute limited partner requires the consent of the General
Partners under the Partnership's Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited
Partnership, (b) in order to ensure compliance with safe harbor provisions to
avoid treatment as a "publicly traded partnership" for tax purposes and (c)
because PSI has purchased Units. However, the General Partners do not have
information regarding the prices at which all secondary sale transactions in the
Units have been effectuated. Various organizations offer to purchase and sell
limited partnership interests (including securities of the type such as the
Units) in secondary sales transactions. Various publications such as The Stanger
Report summarize and report information (on a monthly, bimonthly or less
frequent basis) regarding secondary sales transactions in limited partnership
interests (including the Units), including the prices at which such secondary
sales transactions are effectuated.
Exclusive of the General Partners' interest in the Partnership, as of
December 31, 1998, there were approximately 2,481 record holders of Units.
In February 1997, PSI completed a cash tender offer, which had
commenced in December 1996, pursuant to which PSI acquired a total of 14,787
limited partnership units at $300 per Unit.
The Partnership makes quarterly distributions of all "Cash Available
for Distribution" and will make distributions of "Cash from Sales or
Refinancing". Cash Available for Distribution is cash flow from all sources less
cash necessary for any obligations or capital improvements, or reserves.
Reference is made to Items 6 and 7 hereof for information on the amount
of such distributions.

ITEM 7. 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
- ---------------------
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997:
The Partnership's net income was $2,696,000 in 1998 compared to
$1,924,000 in 1997, representing an increase of $772,000, or 40.1%. The increase
is due primarily to the Partnership's share of an improvement in operations of
the mini-warehouses in which the Partnership has an interest (the
"Mini-Warehouse Properties") and a decrease in depreciation allocated to the
Partnership with respect to the Joint Venture.
PROPERTY OPERATIONS: Rental income for the Partnership's wholly-owned
mini-warehouse property was $299,000 in 1998 compared to $267,000 in 1997,
representing an increase of $32,000, or 12.0%. Cost of operations (including
management fees) increased $6,000, or 4.7%, to $133,000 during 1998 from
$127,000 in 1997. Accordingly, for the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse
property, property net operating income increased by $26,000, or 18.6%, from
$140,000 in 1997 to $166,000 in 1998.
EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF REAL ESTATE ENTITIES: Equity in earnings of real
estate entities was $2,608,000 in 1998 as compared to $1,950,000 during 1997,
representing an increase of $658,000, or 33.7%. This increase was due primarily
to the Partnership's share of improved operating results at the Joint Venture's
mini-warehouse properties, as well as a decrease in depreciation expense
allocated to the Partnership with respect to the Joint Venture.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION: Depreciation and amortization increased
$4,000, or 6.5%, from $62,000 in 1997 to $66,000 during 1998. This increase was
primarily attributable to the depreciation of capital expenditures made during
1998.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996:
The Partnership's net income was $1,924,000 in 1997 compared to
$932,000 in 1996, representing an increase of $992,000, or 106.4%. The increase
is due primarily to the Partnership's share of an improvement in operations of
the mini-warehouses in which the Partnership has an interest and a decrease in
depreciation allocated to the Partnership with respect to the Joint Venture.
PROPERTY OPERATIONS: Rental income for the Partnership's wholly-owned
mini-warehouse property was $267,000 in 1997 compared to $261,000 in 1996,
representing an increase of $6,000, or 2.3%. Cost of operations (including
management fees) decreased $3,000, or 2.3%, to $127,000 during 1997 from
$130,000 in 1996. Accordingly, for the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse
property, property net operating income increased by $9,000, or 6.9%, from
$131,000 in 1996 to $140,000 in 1997.
13
EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF REAL ESTATE ENTITIES: Equity in earnings of real
estate entities was $1,950,000 in 1997 as compared to $979,000 during 1996,
representing an increase of $971,000, or 99.2%. This increase was due primarily
to the Partnership's share of improved operating results at the Joint Venture's
mini-warehouse properties, as well as a decrease in depreciation expense
allocated to the Partnership with respect to the Joint Venture.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION: Depreciation and amortization increased
$1,000, or 1.6%, from $61,000 in 1996 to $62,000 during 1997. This increase was
primarily attributable to the depreciation of capital expenditures made during
1996 and 1997.
SUPPLEMENTAL PROPERTY DATA
- --------------------------
During 1998 and 1997, a majority of the Partnership's net income was
from the Partnership's share of the operating results of the Mini-Warehouse
Properties. Therefore, in order to evaluate the Partnership's operating results,
the General Partners analyze the operating performance of the Mini-Warehouse
Properties.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
1997: Rental income for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $12,827,000 in 1998
compared to $12,160,000 during 1997, representing an increase of $667,000, or
5.5%. The increase in rental income was primarily attributable to increased
rental rates, combined with increased average occupancy levels. The monthly
average realized rent per square foot was $.65 in 1998 compared to $.62 in 1997.
The weighted average occupancy levels increased from 89% in 1997 to 90% in 1998.
Cost of operations (including management fees) increased $180,000, or 3.8%, to
$4,900,000 during 1998 from $4,720,000 in 1997. This increase was primarily
attributable to increases in advertising, management, and property tax expenses.
Accordingly, for the Mini-Warehouse Properties, property net operating income
increased by $487,000, or 6.5%, from $7,440,000 in 1997 to $7,927,000 during
1998.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
1996: Rental income for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $12,160,000 in 1997
compared to $11,606,000 during 1996, representing an increase of $554,000, or
4.8%. The increase in rental income was primarily attributable to increased
rental rates, partially offset by decreased average occupancy levels. The
monthly average realized rent per square foot was $.62 in 1997 compared to $.59
in 1996. The weighted average occupancy levels decreased from 90% in 1996 to 89%
in 1997. Cost of operations (including management fees) increased $156,000, or
3.4%, to $4,720,000 during 1997 from $4,564,000 in 1996. This increase was
primarily attributable to increases in advertising, property tax, and management
expenses. Accordingly, for the Mini-Warehouse Properties, property net operating
income increased by $398,000, or 5.7%, from $7,042,000 in 1996 to $7,440,000
during 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
The Partnership has adequate sources of cash to finance its operations,
both on a short-term and a long-term basis, primarily by internally generated
cash from property operations and distributions from Real Estate Entities,
combined with cash on-hand at December 31, 1998 totaling $3,414,000.
Cash flows from operating activities and distributions from Real Estate
Entities ($4,135,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998) have been sufficient
to meet all current obligations of the Partnership. Total capital improvements
for the Partnership's wholly-owned property were $14,000, $15,000, and $5,000 in
1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. During 1999, the Partnership does not
anticipate incurring significant costs for capital improvements to the
Partnership's wholly-owned property.
14
Total distributions paid to the General Partners and the limited
partners (including per Unit amounts) for 1998 and prior years were as follows:
Total Per Unit
---------- --------
1998 $2,000,000 $13.92
1997 2,000,000 13.92
1996 2,999,000 20.88
1995 4,899,000 34.10
1994 2,816,000 19.60
1993 2,442,000 17.00
1992 2,968,000 20.66
1991 3,607,000 25.11
1990 3,144,000 21.89
1989 3,097,000 21.56
1988 3,769,000 26.23
1987 3,770,000 26.23
1986 3,593,000 25.00
During the fourth quarter of 1990, the Partnership made a special
distribution totaling $1,077,000 ($7.50 per Unit), representing cash reserves
held. The General Partners distributed, concurrently with the distributions for
the fourth quarter of 1991, a portion of the operating reserve estimated at
$9.00 per Unit. The General Partners also distributed, concurrently with the
distributions for the third quarter of 1995, a portion of the operating reserve
estimated at $6.26 per Unit. Future distribution levels will be based upon cash
flows available for distributions (cash flows from operations and distributions
from Real Estate Entities less capital improvements and necessary cash
reserves).
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
- -------------------
The Partnership utilizes PSI's information systems in connection with a
cost sharing and administrative services agreement. PSI has completed an
assessment of all of its hardware and software applications to identify
susceptibility to what is commonly referred to as the "Y2K Issue" whereby
certain computer programs have been written using two digits rather than four to
define the applicable year. Any of PSI's computer programs or hardware with the
Y2K Issue that have date-sensitive applications or embedded chips may recognize
a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000, resulting in
miscalculations or system failure causing disruptions of operations.
PSI has two phases in its process with respect to each of its systems;
i) assessment, whereby PSI evaluates whether the system is Y2K compliant and
identifies the plan of action with respect to remediating any Y2K issues
identified and ii) implementation, whereby PSI completes the plan of action
prepared in the assessment phase and verifies that Y2K compliance has been
achieved.
Many of PSI's critical applications, relative to the direct management
of properties, have recently been replaced and PSI believes they are already
Year 2000 compliant. PSI has an implementation in process on the remaining
critical applications, including its general ledger and related systems, that
are believed to have Y2K issues. PSI expects the implementation to be complete
by June 1999. Contingency plans have been developed for use in case PSI's
implementations are not completed on a timely basis. While PSI presently
believes that the impact of the Y2K Issue on its systems can be mitigated, if
PSI's plan for ensuring Year 2000 Compliance and the related contingency plans
were to fail, be insufficient, or not be implemented on a timely basis,
Partnership operations could be materially impacted.
Certain of PSI's other non-computer related systems that may be
impacted by the Y2K Issue, such as security systems, are currently being
evaluated, and PSI expects the evaluation to be complete by June 1999. PSI
expects the implementation of any required solutions to be complete in advance
15
of December 31, 1999. PSI has not fully evaluated the impact of lack of Year
2000 compliance on these systems, but has no reason to believe that lack of
compliance would materially impact the Partnership's operations.
The Partnership exchanges electronic data with certain outside vendors
in the banking and payroll processing areas. The Partnership has been advised by
these vendors that their systems are or will be Year 2000 compliant, but has
requested a Year 2000 compliance certification from these entities. The
Partnership is not aware of any other vendors, suppliers, or other external
agents with a Y2K Issue that would materially impact the Partnership's results
of operations, liquidity, or capital resources. However, the Partnership has no
means of ensuring that external agents will be Year 2000 compliant, and there
can be no assurance that the Partnership has identified all such external
agents. The inability of external agents to complete their Year 2000 compliance
process in a timely fashion could materially impact the Partnership. The effect
of non-compliance by external agents is not determinable.
The cost of the PSI's year 2000 compliance activities (which primarily
consists of the costs of new systems) to be allocated to the Partnership and the
Joint Venture is estimated at approximately $148,000. These costs are
capitalized. PSI's year 2000 compliance efforts have not resulted in any
significant deferrals in other information system projects.
The costs of the projects and the date on which PSI and the Partnership
expect to achieve Year 2000 Compliance are based upon management's best
estimates, and were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events.
There can be no assurance that these estimates will be achieved, and actual
results could differ materially from those anticipated. There can be no
assurance that the Partnership or PSI has identified all potential Y2K Issues
either within the Partnership, at PSI, or at external agents. In addition, the
impact of the Y2K issue on governmental entities and utility providers and the
resultant impact on the Partnership, as well as disruptions in the general
economy, may be material but cannot be reasonably determined or quantified.

aggregate capital contributions and as a result participate in the distributions
to the limited partners and in the Partnership's profits and losses in the same
proportion that the general partners' capital contribution bears to the total
capital contribution. Information regarding ownership of the Units by PSI, a
General Partner, is set forth under section (a) above. The directors and
executive officers of PSI, as a group, do not own any Units.
(c) The Partnership knows of no contractual arrangements, the
operation of the terms of which may at a subsequent date result in a change in
control of the Partnership, except for articles 16, 17 and 21.1 of the
Partnership's Amended Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership, a copy
of which is included in the Partnership's prospectus included in the
Partnership's Registration Statement File No. 2-92009. Those articles provide,
in substance, that the limited partners shall have the right, by majority vote,
to remove a general partner and that a general partner may designate a successor
with the consent of the other general partner and a majority of the limited
partners.
The Partnership owns interests in 33 properties (which exclude the
properties transferred to PSBPLP in January 1997); 32 of such properties are
held in a general partnership comprised of the Partnership and PSI. Under the
20
terms of the partnership agreement relating to the ownership of the properties,
PSI has the right to compel a sale of each property at any time after seven
years from the date of acquisition at not less than its independently determined
fair market value provided the Partnership receives its share of the net sales
proceeds solely in cash. As of December 31, 1998, PSI has the right to require
the Partnership to sell all of the Joint Venture's properties on these terms.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
The Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partners and their
affiliates are entitled to the following compensation:
1. Incentive distributions equal to 10% of Cash Flow from
Operations.
2. Provided the limited partners have received distributions
equal to 100% of their investment plus a cumulative 8% per
year (not compounded) on their investment (reduced by
distributions other than from Cash Flow from Operations),
subordinated incentive distributions equal to 15% of remaining
Cash from Sales or Refinancings.
3. Provided the limited partners have received distributions
equal to 100% of their capital contributions plus a cumulative
6% per year (not compounded) on their investment (reduced by
distributions other than distributions from Cash Flow from
Operations), brokerage commissions at the lesser of 3% of the
sales price of a property or 50% of a competitive commission.
During 1998, approximately $200,000 was paid to PSI with respect to
items 1, 2, and 3 above. The Partnership owns interests in 33 properties (which
exclude the properties transferred to PSBPLP in January 1997); 32 of such
properties are held in a general partnership comprised of the Partnership and
PSI.
The Partnership and the Joint Venture have a Management Agreement with
PSI pursuant to which the Partnership and the Joint Venture pay PSI a fee of 6%
of the gross revenues of the mini-warehouse spaces operated for the Partnership
and the Joint Venture. During 1998, the Partnership and the Joint Venture paid
fees of $771,000 to PSI pursuant to the Management Agreement.
Through 1996, the Joint Venture business parks were managed by a
predecessor of PSBPLP pursuant to a Management Agreement which provides for the
payment of a fee by the Joint Venture of 5% of the gross revenues of the
commercial space operated for the Joint Venture. In January 1997, the Joint
Venture and PSI and other related partnerships transferred a total of 35
business parks to PSBPLP, an operating partnership formed to own and operate
business parks in which PSI has a significant interest. Included among the
properties transferred were the Joint Venture's business parks in exchange for a
partnership interest in PSBPLP. The general partner of PSBPLP is PS Business
Parks, Inc., a REIT traded on the American Stock Exchange.

Report of Independent Auditors
The Partners
PS Partners IV, Ltd.
We have audited the balance sheets of PS Partners IV, Ltd. as of December 31,
1998 and 1997 and the related statements of income, partners' equity, and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. Our
audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at
Item 14(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of
the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of PS Partners IV, Ltd. at
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.

PS PARTNERS IV, LTD
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PARTNERSHIP MATTERS
Description of Partnership
--------------------------
PS Partners IV, Ltd. (the "Partnership") was formed with the
proceeds of an interstate public offering. PSI Associates II, Inc.
("PSA"), an affiliate of Public Storage Management, Inc., organized the
Partnership along with B. Wayne Hughes ("Hughes"). In September 1993,
Storage Equities, Inc., now known as Public Storage Inc. ("PSI")
acquired the interest of PSA relating to its general partner capital
contribution in the Partnership and was substituted as a co-general
partner in place of PSA.
In 1995, there was a series of mergers among Public Storage
Management, Inc. (which was the Partnership's mini-warehouse operator),
Public Storage, Inc. and their affiliates (collectively, "PSMI"),
culminating in the November 16, 1995 merger (the "PSMI Merger") of PSMI
into Storage Equities, Inc. In the PSMI Merger, Storage Equities, Inc.
was renamed Public Storage, Inc. and it acquired substantially all of
PSMI's United States real estate operations and became the operator of
the mini-warehouse properties in which the Partnership has an interest.
The Partnership has invested in existing mini-warehouse
storage facilities which offer self-service storage spaces for lease,
usually on a month-to-month basis, to the general public and, to a
lesser extent, in existing business park facilities which offer
industrial and office space for lease.
The Partnership has ownership interests in 33 properties in 15
states (collectively referred to as the "Mini-Warehouse Properties"),
which exclude three properties transferred to PS Business Parks, L.P.
("PSBPLP") in January 1997. 32 of the properties are owned by SEI/PSP
IV Joint Ventures (the "Joint Venture"), a general partnership between
the Partnership and PSI. The Partnership is the managing general
partner of the Joint Venture, with ownership interests in the
individual properties of the Joint Venture ranging from 49.8% to 50.9%.
As used hereinafter, the Joint Venture and PSBPLP are referred
to as the "Real Estate Entities."
Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The financial statements include the accounts of the
Partnership. The accounts of the Joint Venture, which the Partnership
does not control, are not consolidated with the Partnership and the
Partnership's interest in the Joint Venture is accounted for on the
equity method.
The Partnership does not control the Joint Venture because PSI
has significant control rights with respect to the management of the
properties, including the right to compel the sale of each property in
the Joint Venture and the right to require the Partnership to submit
operating budgets.
Under the terms of the general partnership agreement of the
Joint Venture all depreciation and amortization with respect to each
property is allocated solely to the Partnership until the limited
partners recover their initial capital contribution. Thereafter, all
depreciation and amortization is allocated solely to PSI until it
recovers its initial capital contribution. All remaining depreciation
and amortization is allocated to the Partnership and PSI in proportion
to their ownership percentages.
F-6
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PARTNERSHIP MATTERS
(CONTINUED)
Under the terms of the general partnership agreement of the
Joint Venture, for property acquisitions in which PSI issued
convertible securities to the sellers for its interest, PSI's rights to
receive cash flow distributions from the partnerships for any year
after the first year of operation are subordinated to cash
distributions to the Partnership equal to a cumulative annual 7% of its
cash investment (not compounded). These agreements also specify that
upon sale or refinancing of a property for more than its original
purchase price, distribution of proceeds to PSI is subordinated to the
return to the Partnership of the amount of its cash investment and the
7% distribution described above.
Depreciation and amortization
-----------------------------
The Partnership and the Joint Venture depreciate the buildings
and equipment on a straight-line method over estimated useful lives of
25 and 5 years, respectively. Leasing commissions relating to business
park properties are expensed when incurred.
Revenue Recognition
-------------------
Property rents are recognized as earned.
Allocation of Net Income or Loss
--------------------------------
The General Partners' share of net income or loss consists of
an amount attributable to their 1% capital contribution and an
additional percentage of cash flow (as defined, see Note 4) which
relates to the General Partners' share of cash distributions as set
forth in the Partnership Agreement. All remaining net income or loss is
allocated to the limited partners.
Per Unit Data
-------------
Per unit data is based on the number of limited partnership
units (128,000) outstanding during the year.
Cash Distributions
------------------
The Partnership Agreement provides for quarterly distributions
of cash flow from operations (as defined). Cash distributions per unit
were $13.92, $13.92, and $20.88 for 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
For financial statement purposes, the Partnership considers
all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months
or less to be cash equivalents.
F-7
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PARTNERSHIP MATTERS
(CONTINUED)
Environmental Cost
------------------
Substantially all of the real estate facilities in which the
Partnership has an interest were acquired prior to the time that it was
customary to conduct extensive environmental investigations in
connection with the property acquisitions. During the fourth quarter of
1995, an independent environmental consulting firm completed
environmental assessments on all the properties in which the
Partnership has an interest to evaluate the environmental condition of,
and potential environmental liabilities of such properties. Although
there can be no assurance, the Partnership is not aware of any
environmental contamination of the Mini-Warehouse Properties which
individually or in the aggregate would be material to the Partnership's
overall business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Segment Reporting
-----------------
Effective January 1, 1998, the Partnership adopted SFAS No.
131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information." SFAS No. 131 established standards for the way public
business enterprises report information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report
selected information about operating segments in interim financial
reports. SFAS No. 131 also establishes standards for related
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major
customers. The Partnership only has one reportable segment as defined
within SFAS No. 131, therefore the adoption of SFAS No. 131 had no
effect on the Partnership's disclosures.
Use of Estimates
----------------
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
2. REAL ESTATE FACILITIES
In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("Statement 121"),
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed of." Statement 121 requires impairment losses to
be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of
impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be
generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount.
Statement 121 also addresses the method of accounting for long-lived
assets that are expected to be disposed. The Partnership adopted
Statement 121 in 1996 and the adoption had no effect.
3. INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE ENTITIES
During 1998, 1997, and 1996, the Partnership recognized
earnings from the Real Estate Entities of $2,608,000, $1,950,000 and
$979,000, respectively, and received cash distributions totaling
$4,006,000, $2,924,000, and $3,045,000, respectively from the Real
Estate Entities.
F-8
3. INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE ENTITIES (CONTINUED)
The accounting policies of the Real Estate Entities are
similar to that of the Partnership. Summarized combined financial data
with respect to the Real Estate Entities are as follows:
1998 1997
------------ -----------
For the year ended December 31,
Total revenues $103,647,000 $44,073,000
Minority interest in income 11,208,000 8,566,000
Net income 35,731,000 9,568,000
At December 31,
Total assets, net of accumulated depreciation $765,906,000 $381,088,000
Total liabilities 67,569,000 12,763,000
Total minority interest 153,015,000 168,665,000
Total equity 545,322,000 199,660,000
The increase in the size of the combined financial position and
operating results, respectively, of the Real Estate Entities for the
year ended December 31, 1998 and at December 31, 1998, respectively, as
compared to prior periods, is the result of additional properties
acquired by PSBLP during 1997 and 1998. PSI has a significant interest
in PSBPLP.
Financial statements of the Joint Venture are filed with the
Partnership's Form 10-K for 1998, in Item 14. PS Business Parks, Inc.
is a registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and its
filings can be accessed through the Securities and Exchange Commission.
4. GENERAL PARTNERS' EQUITY
The General Partners have a 1% interest in the Partnership. In
addition, the General Partners have a 10% interest in cash
distributions attributable to operations, exclusive of distributions
attributable to sales and financing proceeds.
Proceeds from sales and refinancings will be distributed
entirely to the limited partners until the limited partners recover
their investment plus a cumulative 8% annual return (not compounded);
thereafter, the General Partners have a 15% interest in remaining
proceeds.
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Partnership has a management agreement with PSI whereby
PSI operates the Mini-Warehouse Properties for a fee equal to 6% of the
facilities' monthly gross revenue (as defined).
In January 1997, the Joint Venture transferred its business
park facilities to PSBPLP in exchange for a partnership interest in
PSBPLP.
PSI has a significant economic interest in PSBPLP.
F-9
6. LEASES
The Partnership has invested primarily in existing
mini-warehouse storage facilities which offer self-service storage
spaces for lease to the general public. Leases for such space are
usually on a month-to-month basis.
7. TAXES BASED ON INCOME
Taxes based on income are the responsibility of the individual
partners and, accordingly, the Partnership's financial statements do
not reflect a provision for such taxes.
Unaudited taxable net income (loss) was $2,865,000,
$4,980,000, and $(950,000) for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997,
and 1996, respectively. The difference between taxable income and book
income is primarily related to timing differences in depreciation
expense.

The Partners
SEI/PSP IV Joint Ventures
We have audited the balance sheets of the SEI/PSP IV Joint Ventures as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the related statements of income, partners'
equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1998. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in
the Index at Item 14 (a). These financial statements and schedule are the
responsibility of the Joint Ventures' management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the SEI/PSP IV Joint Ventures
at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1998
1. DESCRIPTION OF PARTNERSHIP
SEI/PSP IV Joint Ventures (the "Joint Venture") was formed on
December 31, 1990 in connection with the consolidation of 23 separate
general partnerships between Public Storage Inc. ("PSI") and PS
Partners IV, Ltd. ("PSP IV"). The Joint Venture, through its
predecessor general partnerships, invested in existing mini-warehouse
facilities which offer self-service storage spaces for lease, usually
on a month-to-month basis, to the general public and, to a lesser
extent, in existing business park facilities which offer industrial and
office space for lease.
The Joint Venture owns 32 properties (referred to hereinafter
as the "Mini-Warehouses"), which excludes three properties which was
transferred to PS Business Parks, L.P. ("PSBPLP") in January 1997. PSP
IV is the managing general partner of the Joint Venture, with its
ownership interests in the properties of the Joint Venture ranging from
49.8% to 50.9%.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PARTNERSHIP MATTERS
Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The financial statements include the accounts of the Joint
Venture.
Under the terms of the general partnership agreement of the
Joint Venture, for property acquisitions in which PSI issued
convertible securities to the sellers for its interest, PSI's right to
receive cash flow distributions for any year after the first year of
operation are subordinated to cash distributions to PSP IV equal to a
cumulative annual 7% of its cash investment (not compounded). In
addition, upon sale or refinancing of a property for more than its
original purchase price, distribution of proceeds to PSI is
subordinated to the return to PSP IV of the amount of its cash
investment and the 7% distribution described above.
Depreciation and amortization
-----------------------------
The Joint Venture depreciates the buildings and equipment on a
straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 25 and 5 years,
respectively. Leasing commissions relating to business park properties
are expensed when incurred.
Revenue Recognition
-------------------
Property rents are recognized as earned.
Allocation of Net Income to PSP IV and PSI
------------------------------------------
Net income prior to depreciation is allocated to PSP IV and
PSI based upon their relative ownership interest in each property and
the results of each property.
Under the terms of the general partnership agreement of the
Joint Venture all depreciation and amortization with respect to each
Joint Venture is allocated solely to PSP IV until it recovers its
initial capital contribution. Thereafter, all depreciation and
amortization is allocated solely to PSI until it recovers its initial
capital contribution. All remaining depreciation and amortization is
allocated to PSP IV and PSI in proportion to their ownership
percentages.
F-19
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PARTNERSHIP MATTERS
(CONTINUED)
Cash Distributions
------------------
The general partnership agreement of the Joint Venture
provides for regular distributions of cash flow from operations (as
defined).
Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
For financial statement purposes, the Joint Venture considers
all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months
or less to be cash equivalents.
Environmental Cost
------------------
Substantially all of the real estate facilities in which the
Joint Venture has an interest were acquired prior to the time that it
was customary to conduct extensive environmental investigations in
connection with the property acquisitions. During the fourth quarter of
1995, an independent environmental consulting firm completed
environmental assessments on the Joint Venture's properties to evaluate
the environmental condition of, and potential environmental liabilities
of such properties. Although there can be no assurance, the Joint
Venture is not aware of any environmental contamination of the
Mini-Warehouses which individually or in the aggregate would be
material to the Joint Venture's overall business, financial condition,
or results of operations.
Segment Reporting
-----------------
Effective January 1, 1998, the Joint Venture adopted SFAS No.
131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information." SFAS No. 131 established standards for the way public
business enterprises report information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report
selected information about operating segments in interim financial
reports. SFAS No. 131 also establishes standards for related
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major
customers. The Joint Venture only has one reportable segment as defined
within SFAS No. 131, therefore the adoption of SFAS No. 131 had no
effect on the Joint Venture's disclosures.
Use of Estimates
----------------
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
3. REAL ESTATE FACILITIES
The City of Manchester, Airport Authority ("Airport
Authority") is considering the acquisition of a small parcel of land at
the Joint Venture's Manchester, New Hampshire property either through
the exercise of its right of eminent domain or pursuant to a conveyance
in lieu of an exercise of such power. If acquired, the Airport
Authority intends to use the parcel of land for the widening of an
adjoining road. The Joint Venture is currently in communication with
the Airport Authority concerning the status of its decision with regard
to the possible partial taking. The Joint Venture does not anticipate
the recognition of a loss as a result of the possible transaction.
F-20
3. REAL ESTATE FACILITIES (CONTINUED)
In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("Statement 121"),
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed of." Statement 121 requires impairment losses to
be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of
impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be
generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount.
Statement 121 also addresses the method of accounting for long-lived
assets that are expected to be disposed. The Joint Venture adopted
Statement 121 in 1996 and the adoption had no effect.
In January 1997, the Joint Venture, PSI and other affiliated
partnerships of PSI transferred a total of 35 business parks to PSBPLP,
an operating partnership formed to own and operate business parks in
which PSI has a significant interest. Included among the properties
transferred was the Joint Venture's business parks in exchange for a
partnership interest in PSBPLP. The general partner of PSBPLP is PS
Business Parks, Inc. ("PSBP")
4. INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE ENTITY
In 1998 and 1997, the Joint Venture recognized $859,000 and
$602,000, respectively, in equity in earnings of real estate entity
with respect to the investment in PSBPLP, described in Note 3 above.
The accounting policies of PSBPLP are similar to that of the
Joint Venture. Summarized combined financial data with respect to
PSBPLP is as follows:
1998 1997
----------- -----------
For the year ended December 31,
Total revenues $90,260,000 $31,578,000
Minority interest in income 11,208,000 8,566,000
Net income 29,400,000 3,836,000
At December 31,
Total assets, net of accumulated depreciation $709,414,000 $323,454,000
Total liabilities 66,494,000 11,831,000
Total minority interest 153,015,000 168,665,000
Total equity 489,905,000 142,958,000
The increase in the size of the combined financial position
and operating results, respectively, of the Real Estate Entity for the
year ended December 31, 1998 and at December 31, 1998, respectively, as
compared to prior periods, is the result of additional properties
acquired by PSBLP during 1997 and 1998. PSI has a significant interest
in PSBPLP.
PS Business Parks, Inc., which owns PSBPLP, is a registrant
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and its filings can be
accessed through the Securities and Exchange Commission.
F-21
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Joint Venture has a management agreement with PSI whereby
PSI operates the Mini-Warehouses for a fee equal to 6% of the
facilities' monthly gross revenue (as defined).
In January 1997, the Joint Venture transferred its business
park facilities to PSBPLP in exchange for a partnership interest in
PSBPLP.
PSI has a significant economic interest in PSBPLP and PSBP.
6. LEASES
The Joint Venture has invested primarily in existing
mini-warehouse storage facilities which offer self-service storage
spaces for lease to the general public. Leases for such space are
usually on a month-to-month basis.
7. TAXES BASED ON INCOME
Taxes based on income are the responsibility of PSP IV and PSI
and, accordingly, the Joint Venture's financial statements do not
reflect a provision for such taxes.
Unaudited taxable net income was $5,186,000, $4,979,000 and
$457,000 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. The difference between taxable income and book income is
primarily related to timing differences in depreciation expense.
