1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
(a)  Organization and Business
 
Wells Real Estate Fund XI, L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a Georgia public limited partnership with Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P. (“Wells Partners”), a Georgia nonpublic limited partnership, serving as the General Partners. The Partnership was formed on June 20, 1996 for the purpose of acquiring, developing, owning, operating, improving, leasing, and otherwise managing income producing commercial properties for investment purposes. Limited partners have the right to change their prior elections to have some or all of their units treated as Class A units or Class B units one time during each quarterly accounting period. Limited partners may vote to, among other things, (a) amend the partnership agreement, subject to certain limitations, (b) change the business purpose or investment objectives of the Partnership, and (c) add or remove a general partner. A majority vote on any of the above described matters will bind the Partnership without the concurrence of the general partners. Each limited partnership unit has equal voting rights, regardless of class.
 
On December 31, 1997, the Partnership commenced a public offering of up to $35,000,000 of limited partnership units pursuant to a Registration Statement filed on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. The Partnership commenced active operations on March 3, 1998 upon receiving and accepting subscriptions for 125,000 units. The offer terminated on December 30, 1998 at which time approximately 1,302,942 and 350,338 units had been sold to 1,250 and 95 Class A and Class B Limited Partners, respectively, for total limited partner capital contributions of $16,532,802. As of June 30, 2002, the Partnership had paid a total of $578,648 in acquisition and advisory fees and acquisition expenses and $2,066,600 in selling commissions and organization and offering expenses and invested $3,357,436 in Fund IX-X-XI-REIT Associates, $2,398,767 in Fund X-XI Associates, and $8,131,351 in Fund XI-XII-REIT Associates.

Table of Contents
 
Each of the aforementioned properties was acquired on an all cash basis. For further information regarding the foregoing joint ventures and properties, refer to the report filed for the Partnership Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
 
(b)  Basis of Presentation
 
The financial statements of the Partnership have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The quarterly statements included herein have not been examined by independent accountants. However, in the opinion of the General Partners, the statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature and necessary to fairly present the results for such periods. Interim results for 2002 are not necessarily indicative of results for the year. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in the report filed for the Partnership on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
 
(c)  Distributions of Net Cash From Operations
 
As defined by the partnership agreement, cash available for distributions is distributed quarterly on a cumulative non-compounded basis to the limited partners as follows:
 
 
 
First, to all Class A limited partners until such limited partners have received distributions equal to a 10% per annum return on their respective adjusted capital contributions, as defined.
 
 
 
Second, to the General Partners until each general partner has received distributions equal to 10% of total distributions declared by the Partnership per annum.
 
 
 
Third, to the Class A limited partners and the General Partners allocated on a basis of 90% and 10%, respectively.
 
No distributions will be made to the limited partners holding Class B units.
 
(d)  Impairment of Real Estate Assets
 
On January 1, 2002, the Partnership adopted SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Under the new guidance, management reviews each of the properties in which it holds an interest for impairment when there is an event or change in circumstances that indicates the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable and the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset are less than its carrying amount. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the Partnership records impairment losses and reduces the carrying amount of impaired assets to an amount that reflects the fair value of the assets at the time impairment is evident. Management also reviews estimated selling prices of assets held for sale and records impairment losses to reduce the carrying amount of assets held for sale when the carrying amounts exceed the estimated selling prices less costs to sell. Also, material long-lived assets held for sale are separately identified in the balance sheets and their related net operating income is segregated as income from discontinued operations in the statements of income. In addition, depreciation of long-lived assets held for sale is not recorded. If an asset held for sale reverts to an asset used in operations, the asset will be measured at the lower of the original carrying cost, adjusted for the forgone depreciation, or the fair value at the date of the decision to hold the asset.

Item 2.     Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operation
 
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto.
 
(a)  Forward-Looking Statements
 
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including discussion and analysis of the financial condition of the Partnership, anticipated capital expenditures required to complete certain projects, amounts of cash distributions anticipated to be distributed to limited partners in the future and certain other matters. Readers of this Report should be aware that there are various factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements made in this report, including construction costs which may exceed estimates, construction delays, lease-up risks, inability to obtain new tenants upon the expiration of existing leases, and the potential need to fund tenant improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flows.
 
(b)  Results of Operations
 
Gross Revenues
 
Gross revenues decreased to $466,881 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $477,642 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 primarily due to (i) a decrease in common area maintenance adjustments recorded in the second quarter of 2002 related to 2001 reimbursements billing to tenants at the 360 Interlocken Building and the Alstom Power-Knoxville Building (tenants are billed for common area maintenance reimbursements at estimated amounts, which are reconciled as tenants are billed (credited) for the net annual under (over) billings in the following year), (ii) reduced interest income for all joint ventures due to the general decline in interest rates, (iii) increased tax expenses for the Gartner Building resulting from the Florida state sales tax audit conducted in 2001, partially offset by increased rental renewal rates at the 360 Interlocken Building.
 
Expenses
 
Expenses remained relatively stable at $48,416 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to $49,096 for the six months ended June 30, 2001.
 
As a result, net income decreased to $418,465 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $428,546 for the same period in 2001.
 
Distributions
 
The Partnership declared cash distributions of investment income to limited partners holding Class A units of $0.48 and $0.49 per unit for each of the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The General Partners anticipate that distributions per unit to limited partners holding Class A units will continue in 2002 at a level at least comparable with 2001 cash distributions on an annual basis. No cash distributions were declared to limited partners holding Class B units.

(c)  Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Net cash used in operating activities decreased to $35,836 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $60,568 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 primarily as a result of borrowing $20,000 from Fund XI-XII-REIT Associates, an affiliated Wells entity, during the second quarter of 2002 in order to fund expenses at partnership level. The Partnership anticipates repaying these funds in full during the third and fourth quarters of 2002. Net cash provided by investing activities decreased slightly to $677,977 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $679,799 for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Net cash used in financing activities decreased to $646,700 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $653,918 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 primarily due to the decrease in cash generated from joint ventures during the first quarter of 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001; the Partnership receives distributions based on the cash flows generated from joint ventures during the respective immediately preceding quarterly accounting periods.
 
The Partnership expects to continue to meet its short-term liquidity requirements and budget demands generally through net cash provided by operations which the Partnership believes will continue to be adequate to meet both operating requirements and distributions to limited partners. Although there is no assurance, the General Partners anticipate that cash distributions to limited partners holding Class A Units will continue in 2002 at a level at least comparable with 2001 cash distributions on an annual basis. At this time, given the nature of the joint ventures and properties in which the Partnership has invested, there are no known material improvements or renovations to the properties expected to be funded from cash flows from operations.
 
(d)  Inflation
 
The real estate market has not been affected significantly by inflation in the past three years due to the relatively low inflation rate. There are provisions in the majority of the tenant leases executed by the Partnership to protect the Partnership from the impact of inflation. Most leases contain provisions for common area maintenance, real estate tax and insurance reimbursements from tenants either on a per square foot basis, or above a certain allowance per square foot annually. These provisions should reduce the Partnership’s exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. There is no assurance, however, that the Partnership would be able to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base rental rates.
 
(e)  Critical Accounting Policies
 
The Partnership’s accounting policies have been established and conformed to in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgments in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements presented and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the respective reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied; thus, resulting in a different presentation of our financial statements.
 
The accounting policies that we consider to be critical, in that they may require complex judgment in their application or require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain, are discussed below.

For further information related to the Partnership’s accounting policies, including the critical accounting policies described below, refer to the report filed for the Partnership on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
 
Straight-Lined Rental Revenues
 
The Partnership recognizes rental income generated from all leases on real estate assets in which the Partnership has an ownership interest through its investments in joint ventures on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Should tenants encounter financial difficulties in future periods, the amounts recorded as receivables may not be fully realized.
 
Operating Cost Reimbursements
 
The Partnership generally bills tenants for operating cost reimbursements through its investments in joint ventures on a monthly basis at amounts estimated largely based on actual prior period activity and the respective tenant lease terms. Such billings are generally adjusted on an annual basis to reflect reimbursements owed to the landlord based on the actual costs incurred during the period and the respective tenant lease terms. Should tenants encounter financial difficulties in future periods, the amounts recorded as receivables may not be fully realized.
 
Real Estate
 
Management continually monitors events and changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets in which the Partnership has ownership interests through its investments in joint ventures may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, management assesses the potential impairment by comparing the fair market value of the underlying assets, estimated at amounts equal to the future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated from tenants over the life of the assets and from their eventual disposition, to the carrying value of the assets. In the event that the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair market value, the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss in the amount required to adjust the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair market value. Neither the Partnership nor its joint ventures have recognized impairment losses on real estate assets in 2002, 2001 or 2000.
