NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ---------------------------------------------------
General
- -------
The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q
for quarterly reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six
months ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2004. For further
information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2003.
Organization
- ------------
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 9, a California Limited Partnership
(the "Partnership"), was formed on July 17, 2001 under the laws of the state of
California, and commenced operations on August 3, 2001, the effective date of
its public offering pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission's
approval of the Partnership's Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-11
initially filed on August 16, 2001. Prior to August 3, 2001, the Partnership was
considered a development-stage enterprise. The Partnership was formed to invest
primarily in other limited partnerships and limited liability companies (the
"Local Limited Partnerships") which own and operate multi-family housing
complexes (the "Housing Complex") that are eligible for low income housing tax
credits. The local general partners (the "Local General Partners") of each Local
Limited Partnership retain responsibility for maintaining, operating and
managing the Housing Complex.
The general partner is WNC & Associates, Inc. ("WNC") (the "General Partner"), a
California limited partnership. The chairman and president own substantially all
of the outstanding stock of WNC. The business of the Partnership is conducted
primarily through WNC, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.
The Partnership shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2062,
unless terminated prior to that date, pursuant to the partnership agreement or
law.
The financial statements include only activity relating to the business of the
Partnership, and do not give effect to any assets that the partners may have
outside of their interests in the Partnership, or to any obligations, including
income taxes, of the partners.
The Partnership agreement authorized the sale of up to 25,000 units at $1,000
per Unit ("Units"). As of March-31, 2003, 15,323 Units, representing
subscriptions in the amount of $15,316,125, net of dealer discounts of $7,350
and volume discounts of $1,525, had been accepted. The General Partner has a
0.1% interest in operating profits and losses, taxable income and losses, in
cash available for distribution from the Partnership and tax credits. The
limited partners will be allocated the remaining 99.9% interest in proportion to
their respective investments.
After the limited partners have received proceeds from a sale or refinancing
equal to their capital contributions and their return on investment (as defined
in the Partnership Agreement) and the General Partner has received proceeds
equal to its capital contribution and a subordinated disposition fee (as
described in Note 4) from the remainder, any additional sale or refinancing
proceeds will be distributed 90% to the limited partners (in proportion to their
respective investments) and 10% to the General Partner.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Risks and Uncertainties
- -----------------------
An investment in the Partnership and the Partnership's investments in Local
Limited Partnerships and their Housing Complexes are subject to risks. These
risks may impact the tax benefits of an investment in the Partnership, and the
amount of proceeds available for distribution to the Limited Partners, if any,
on liquidation of the Partnership's investments. Some of those risks include the
following:
The Low Income Housing Credit rules are extremely complicated. Noncompliance
with these rules results in the loss of future Low Income Housing Credit s and
the fractional recapture of Low Income Housing Credits already taken. In most
cases the annual amount of Low Income Housing Credits that an individual can use
is limited to the tax liability due on the person's last $25,000 of taxable
income. The Local Limited Partnerships may be unable to sell the Housing
Complexes at a profit. Accordingly, the Partnership may be unable to distribute
any cash to its investors. Low Income Housing Credits may be the only benefit
from an investment in the Partnership.
The Partnership has invested in a limited number of Local Limited Partnerships.
Such limited diversity means that the results of operation of each single
Housing Complex will have a greater impact on the Partnership. With limited
diversity, poor performance of one Housing Complex could impair the
Partnership's ability to satisfy its investment objectives. Each Housing Complex
is subject to mortgage indebtedness. If a Local Limited Partnership failed to
pay its mortgage, it could lose its Housing Complex in foreclosure. If
foreclosure were to occur during the first 15 years, the loss of any remaining
Low Income Housing Credits, a fractional recapture of prior Low Income Housing
Credits, and a loss of the Partnership's investment in the Housing Complex would
occur. The Partnership is a limited partner or non-managing member of each Local
Limited Partnership. Accordingly, the Partnership will have very limited rights
with respect to management of the Local Limited Partnerships. The Partnership
will rely totally on the Local General Partners. Neither the Partnership's
investments in Local Limited Partnerships, nor the Local Limited Partnerships'
investments in Housing Complexes, are readily marketable. To the extent the
Housing Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies, they may
be subject to one or more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining
tenants for the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases;
limitations on cash distributions; limitations on sales or refinancing of
Housing Complexes; limitations on transfers of interests in Local Limited
Partnerships; limitations on removal of Local General Partners; limitations on
subsidy programs; and possible changes in applicable regulations. Uninsured
casualties could result in loss of property and Low Income Housing Credits and
recapture of Low Income Housing Credits previously taken. The value of real
estate is subject to risks from fluctuating economic conditions, including
employment rates, inflation, tax, environmental, land use and zoning policies,
supply and demand of similar properties, and neighborhood conditions, among
others.
The ability of Limited Partners to claim tax losses from the Partnership is
limited. The IRS may audit the Partnership or a Local Limited Partnership and
challenge the tax treatment of tax items. The amount of Low Income Housing
Credits and tax losses allocable to the investors could be reduced if the IRS
were successful in such a challenge. The alternative minimum tax could reduce
tax benefits from an investment in the Partnership. Changes in tax laws could
also impact the tax benefits from an investment in the Partnership and/or the
value of the Housing Complexes.
No trading market for the Units exists or is expected to develop. Investors may
be unable to sell their Units except at a discount and should consider their
Units to be a long-term investment. Individual investors will have no recourse
if they disagree with actions authorized by a vote of the majority of Limited
Partners.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Exit Strategy
- -------------
The IRS compliance period for low-income housing tax credit properties is
generally 15 years from occupancy following construction or rehabilitation
completion. WNC was one of the first in the industry to offer investments using
the tax credit. Now these very first programs are completing their compliance
period.
With that in mind, the Partnership is continuing to review the Partnership's
holdings, with special emphasis on the more mature properties including those
that have satisfied the IRS compliance requirements. The Partnership's review
will consider many factors including extended use requirements on the property
(such as those due to mortgage restrictions or state compliance agreements), the
condition of the property, and the tax consequences to the investors from the
sale of the property.
Upon identifying those properties with the highest potential for a successful
sale, refinancing or syndication, the Partnership expects to proceed with
efforts to liquidate those properties. The Partnership's objective is to
maximize the investors' return wherever possible and, ultimately, to wind down
those funds that no longer provide tax benefits to investors. To date no
properties in the Partnership have been selected.
Method of Accounting for Investments in Limited Partnerships
- ------------------------------------------------------------
The Partnership accounts for its investments in limited partnerships using the
equity method of accounting, whereby the Partnership adjusts its investment
balance for its share of the Local Limited Partnerships' results of operations
and for any contributions made and distributions received. The Partnership
reviews the carrying amount of an individual investment in a Local Limited
Partnership for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of such investment may not be recoverable.
Recoverability of such investment is measured by a comparison of the carrying
amount to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated. If an
investment is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the investment exceeds
fair value. The accounting policies of the Local Limited Partnership's are
generally consistent with those of the Partnership. Costs incurred by the
Partnership in acquiring the investments are capitalized as part of the
investment account and are being amortized over 30 years (Notes 2 and 3).
Equity in income and equity in losses of limited partnerships for the periods
presented is based on Six months of results estimated by management of the
Partnership. Management's estimate for the Six-month period is based on either
actual unaudited results reported by the Local Limited Partnerships or
historical trends in the operations of the Local Limited Partnerships. Equity in
losses from the Local Limited Partnerships allocated to the Partnership will not
be recognized to the extent that the investment balance would be adjusted below
zero. As soon as the investment balance reaches zero, amortization of the
related costs of acquiring the investment are accelerated to the extent of
losses available.
Offering Expenses
- -----------------
Offering expenses consist of underwriting commissions, legal fees, printing,
filing and recordation fees, and other costs incurred in connection with selling
limited partnership interests in the Partnership. The General Partner is
obligated to pay all offering and organization costs in excess of 13% (excluding
sales commissions and the dealer manager fee) of the total offering proceeds.
Offering expenses are reflected as a reduction of partners' capital and amounted
to $1,983,375 as of September 30, 2003 and March 31, 2003.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Use of Estimates
- ----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those
estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
- -------------------------
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with remaining
maturities of Six months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of
September 30, 2003, the Partnership had no cash equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk
- ----------------------------
At September 30, 2003, the Partnership maintained cash balances at certain
financial institutions in excess of the federally insured maximum.
Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit
- -----------------------------------
Net income per limited partner unit is calculated pursuant to Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Net income per unit
includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to limited
partners by the weighted average number of units outstanding during the period.
Calculation of diluted net income per unit is not required.
Reporting Comprehensive Income
- ------------------------------
The Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, Reporting
Comprehensive Income established standards for the reporting and display of
comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general-purpose
financial statements. The Partnership had no items of other comprehensive income
for all the periods presented, as defined by SFAS No. 130.
New Accounting Pronouncements
- -----------------------------
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations", which requires that the fair value of a liability for
an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is
incurred with the associated asset retirement costs being capitalized as a part
of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 also includes
disclosure requirements that provide a description of asset retirement
obligations and reconciliation of changes in the components of those
obligations. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 did not have a material impact on the
Partnership's financial position or results of operations.
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets," which addresses accounting and financial reporting for the
impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This standard was effective for the
Partnership's financial statements beginning January 1, 2002. The implementation
of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Partnership's financial
position or results of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements, continued
- ----------------------------------------
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No.
4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections."
SFAS No. 145 rescinded Six previously issued statements and amended SFAS No. 13,
"Accounting for Leases." The statement provides reporting standards for debt
extinguishments and provides accounting standards for certain lease
modifications that have economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions.
The statement is effective for certain lease transactions occurring after
May-15, 2002 and all other provisions of the statement shall be effective for
financial statements issued on or after May-15, 2002. The implementation of SFAS
No. 145 did not have a material impact on the Partnership's financial position
or results of operations.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities," which updates accounting and reporting
standards for personnel and operational restructurings. The Partnership adopted
SFAS No. 146 for exit, disposal or other restructuring activities initiated
after December 31, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 did not have a material
effect on the Partnership's financial position or results of operations.
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others." The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a
material impact on the Partnership's finacial position or results of operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure - an Amendment to SFAS No. 123." SFAS
No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the
fair value based method on accounting for stock-based employee compensation. The
adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material impact on the Partnership's
financial position or results of operations.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN46"), "Consolidation
of Variable Interest Entities," FIN 46 provides guidance on when a company
should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest
entity ("VIE'') in its financial statements and when it should disclose
information about its relationship with a VIE. A VIE is a legal structure used
to conduct activities or hold assets, which must be consolidated by a company if
it is the primary beneficiary because it absorbs the majority of the entity's
expected losses, the majority of the expected returns, or both. The provisions
of FIN 46 were effective February 1, 2003 for all arrangements entered into
after January 31, 2003. FIN 46 is effective in the third quarter of 2004 for
those arrangements entered into prior to January 31, 2003. We are currently
reviewing whether we have relationships with VIEs and, if so, whether we should
consolidate them and disclose information about them as the primary beneficiary
or disclose information about them as an interest holder. We may have to
consolidate some of our equity investments in partnerships based on recent
interpretations from accounting professionals. We currently record the amount of
our investment in these partnerships as an asset on our balance sheet, recognize
our share of partnership income or losses in our income statement, and disclose
how we account for material types of these investments in our 2003 financial
statements. However, we do not yet know the extent of the impact of
consolidating the assets and liabilities of these partnerships on our balance
sheet because of the complexities of applying FIN 46, the evolving
interpretations from accounting professionals, and the nuances of each
individual partnership.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
- --------------------------------------------
As September 30, 2003 and March 31, 2003, the Partnership has acquired limited
partnership interests in twelve and ten Local Limited Partnerships,
respectively, each of which owns one Housing Complex except for one that owns
Six Housing Complexes consisting of an aggregate of 505 and 394 apartment units.
As of September 30, 2003, one of the Housing Complexes was under construction or
rehabilitation. The respective Local General Partners of the Local Limited
Partnerships manage the day-to-day operations of the entities. Significant Local
Limited Partnership business decisions require approval from the Partnership.
The Partnership, as a limited partner, is generally entitled to approximately
99%, as specified in the Local Limited Partnership agreements, of the operating
profits and losses, taxable income and losses and tax credits of the Local
Limited Partnerships.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS, continued
- -------------------------------------------------------
Equity in losses of the Local Limited Partnerships is recognized in the
financial statements until the related investment account is reduced to a zero
balance. Losses incurred after the investment account is reduced to zero are not
recognized. If the Local Limited Partnerships report net income in future years,
the Partnership will resume applying the equity method only after its share of
such net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the
period(s) the equity method was suspended.
Distributions received by limited partners are accounted for as a reduction of
the investment balance. Distributions received after the investment has reached
zero are recognized as income. As of September 30, 2003, no investment accounts
in Local Limited Partnerships had reached a zero balance.
The following is a summary of the equity method activity of the investments in
local limited partnerships as of:

Forward-Looking Statements
With the exception of the discussion regarding historical information,
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and other discussions elsewhere in this Form 10-Q contain
forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on current expectations
subject to uncertainties and other factors, which may involve known and unknown
risks that could cause actual results of operations to differ materially from
those projected or implied. Further, certain forward-looking statements are
based upon assumptions about future events, which may not prove to be accurate.
Risks and uncertainties inherent in forward-looking statements include, but are
not limited to, our future cash flows and ability to obtain sufficient
financing, level of operating expenses, conditions in the low-income housing tax
credit property market and the economy in general, as well as legal proceedings.
Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for
any future period.
Subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or
persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by
cautionary statements in this Form 10-Q and in other reports we filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The following discussion should be read in
conjunction with the condensed Financial Statements and the Notes thereto
included elsewhere in this filing.
The following discussion and analysis discusses the results of operations for
the three and six months ended September 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002, and
should be read in conjunction with the condensed financial statements and
accompanying notes included within this report.
Financial Condition
The Partnership's assets at September 30, 2003 consisted primarily of $1,773,000
in cash and aggregate investments in the twelve Local Limited Partnerships of
$12,113,000. Liabilities at September 30, 2003 primarily consisted of $1,500,000
of notes payable to limited partnerships and $136,000 in accrued expenses and
management fees due to the General Partner or affiliates.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended September
30, 2002. The Partnership's net loss for the three months ended September 30,
2003 was $(396,000) reflecting an increase of $(353,000) from the net loss of
$(43,000) experienced for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The
increase in net loss is primarily due to an increase of equity in losses from
limited partnerships of $(317,000) due to losses of $(18,000) for the three
months ended September 30, 2002 compared to losses of $(335,000) for the three
months ended September 30, 2003 due to properties becoming fully operational.
Along with the increase of equity in losses from limited partnerships, loss from
operations increased by $(36,000) due to a decrease in interest income of
$(2,000) along with an increase in operating expenses of approximately $(34,000)
for the three months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the three months
ended September 30, 2002.
Six Months Ended September 30, 2003 Compared to Six Months Ended September 30,
2002. The Partnership's net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2003 was
$(524,000) reflecting an increase of $(478,000) from the net loss of $(46,000)
experienced for the six months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in net
loss is primarily due to an increase of equity in losses from limited
partnerships of $(408,000) due to losses of $(14,000) for the six months ended
September 30, 2002 compared to losses of $(422,000) for the six months ended
September 30, 2003 due to properties becoming fully operational. Along with the
increase of equity in losses from limited partnerships, loss from operations
increased by $(70,000) due to a decrease of interest income of $(7,000) and an
increase in operating expenses of approximately $(63,000) for the six months
ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the six months ended September 30, 2002

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Cash Flows
Six Months Ended September 30, 2003 Compared to Six Months Ended September 30,
2002. Net decrease in cash during the six months ended September 30, 2003 was
$(2,748,000), compared to a net decrease in cash for the six months ended
September 30, 2002 of $(620,000) reflecting an increase of cash used of
$(2,128,000). The change in net cash is due to a decrease of cash provided by
financing activities of $(4,408,000), due primarily to the selling of units
being completed and the completion of the syndication process, along with a
decrease in net cash used by investing activities of $2,311,000 due primarily to
less properties being acquired in the six months ended September 30, 2003
compared to the six months ended September 30, 2002. Additionally, there was an
increase in cash used in operating activities of $(31,000).
The Partnership expects its future cash flows, together with its net available
assets at September 30, 2003, to be sufficient to meet all currently foreseeable
future cash requirements.
