NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2012

(1)  The condensed statements included herein have been prepared by the registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent with the annual audited statements.  The adjustments made to these condensed statements consist only of normal recurring adjustments.  Certain information, accounting policies, and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the summary of significant accounting policies and notes thereto included in the registrant's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

(2)  Organization –

AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC (“Company”), a Limited Liability Company, was formed on June 24, 2002 to acquire and lease commercial properties to operating tenants.  The Company's operations are managed by AEI Fund Management XXI, Inc. (“AFM”), the Managing Member.  Robert P. Johnson, the President and sole director of AFM, serves as the Special Managing Member.  AFM is a wholly owned subsidiary of AEI Capital Corporation of which Mr. Johnson is the majority shareholder.  AEI Fund Management, Inc. (“AEI”), an affiliate of AFM, performs the administrative and operating functions for the Company.

The terms of the offering called for a subscription price of $1,000 per LLC Unit, payable on acceptance of the offer.  The Company commenced operations on September 11, 2003 when minimum subscriptions of 1,500 LLC Units ($1,500,000) were accepted.  The offering terminated May 12, 2005, when the extended offering period expired.  The Company received subscriptions for 42,434.763 Units.  Under the terms of the Operating Agreement, the Limited Members and Managing Members contributed funds of $42,434,763 and $1,000, respectively.  The Company shall continue until December 31, 2053, unless dissolved, terminated and liquidated prior to that date.

During operations, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which the Managing Members determine to distribute will be distributed 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members.  Distributions to Limited Members will be made pro rata by Units.

Any Net Proceeds of Sale, as defined, from the sale or financing of properties which the Managing Members determine to distribute will, after provisions for debts and reserves, be paid in the following manner: (i) first, 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members until the Limited Members receive an amount equal to: (a) their Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an amount equal to 7% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously distributed from Net Cash Flow; (ii) any remaining balance will be distributed 90% to the Limited Members and 10% to the Managing Members.  Distributions to the Limited Members will be made pro rata by Units.

For tax purposes, profits from operations, other than profits attributable to the sale, exchange, financing, refinancing or other disposition of property, will be allocated 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members.  Net losses from operations will be allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members.

For tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing, or other disposition of property will be allocated in accordance with the Operating Agreement as follows: (i) first, to those Members with deficit balances in their capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum of such deficit balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members until the aggregate balance in the Limited Members' capital accounts equals the sum of the Limited Members' Adjusted Capital Contributions plus an amount equal to 7% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously allocated; (iii) third, the balance of any remaining gain will then be allocated 90% to the Limited Members and 10% to the Managing Members.  Losses will be allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members.

The Managing Members are not required to currently fund a deficit capital balance.  Upon liquidation of the Company or withdrawal by a Managing Member, the Managing Members will contribute to the Company an amount equal to the lesser of the deficit balances in their capital accounts or 1.01% of the total capital contributions of the Limited Members over the amount previously contributed by the Managing Members.

(3)  Reclassification –

Certain items related to discontinued operations in the prior year’s financial statements have been reclassified to conform to 2012 presentation.  These reclassifications had no effect on Members’ equity, net income or cash flows.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

This section contains "forward-looking statements" which represent management's expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including statements regarding anticipated application of cash, expected returns from rental income, growth in revenue, the sufficiency of cash to meet operating expenses, rates of distribution, and other matters.  These, and other forward-looking statements, should be evaluated in the context of a number of factors that may affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, including the following:

 
Market and economic conditions which affect the value of the properties the Company owns and the cash from rental income such properties generate;
 
the federal income tax consequences of rental income, deductions, gain on sales and other items and the effects of these consequences for Members;
 
resolution by the Managing Members of conflicts with which they may be confronted;
 
the success of the Managing Members of locating properties with favorable risk return characteristics;
 
the effect of tenant defaults; and
 
the condition of the industries in which the tenants of properties owned by the Company operate.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP).  Preparing the financial statements requires management to use judgment in the application of these accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions.  These judgments will affect the reported amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and will affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods.  It is possible that the carrying amount of the Company’s assets and liabilities, or the results of reported operations, will be affected if management’s estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate.

Management of the Company evaluates the following accounting estimates on an ongoing basis, and has discussed the development and selection of these estimates and the management discussion and analysis disclosures regarding them with the managing member of the Company.

Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Properties

Upon acquisition of real properties, the Company records them in the financial statements at cost (not including acquisition expenses).  The purchase price is allocated to tangible assets, consisting of land and building, and to identified intangible assets and liabilities, which may include the value of above market and below market leases and the value of in-place leases.  The allocation of the purchase price is based upon the fair value of each component of the property.  Although independent appraisals may be used to assist in the determination of fair value, in many cases these values will be based upon management’s assessment of each property, the selling prices of comparable properties and the discounted value of cash flows from the asset.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

The fair values of above market and below market in-place leases will be recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) an estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases measured over a period equal to the non-cancelable term of the lease including any bargain renewal periods.  The above market and below market lease values will be capitalized as intangible lease assets or liabilities.  Above market lease values will be amortized as an adjustment of rental income over the remaining term of the respective leases.  Below market leases will be amortized as an adjustment of rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases, including any bargain renewal periods.  If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts of above market and below market in-place lease values relating to that lease would be recorded as an adjustment to rental income.
 
The fair values of in-place leases will include estimated direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, and opportunity costs associated with lost rentals which are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease.  Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant may include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated, in part, by management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease.  These direct costs will be included in intangible lease assets on the balance sheet and will be amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases.  The value of opportunity costs will be calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease.  These intangibles will be included in intangible lease assets on the balance sheet and will be amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases.  If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts of in-place lease assets relating to that lease would be expensed.

The determination of the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired will require the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current market rental rates, rental growth rates, discount and capitalization rates, interest rates and other variables.  If management’s estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate, the result would be an inaccurate allocation of purchase price, which could impact the amount of reported net income.

Carrying Value of Properties

The carrying value of the properties is initially recorded at cost, not including acquisition expenses. The Company tests long-lived assets for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.  For properties the Company will hold and operate, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property’s probability-weighted future undiscounted cash flows to its current carrying value.  For properties held for sale, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property’s estimated fair value less cost to sell to its current carrying value.  If the carrying value is greater than the net realizable value, an impairment loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its net realizable value.  Changes in these assumptions or analysis may cause material changes in the carrying value of the properties.

Allocation of Expenses

AEI Fund Management, Inc. allocates expenses to each of the funds they manage primarily on the basis of the number of hours devoted by their employees to each fund’s affairs.  They also allocate expenses at the end of each month that are not directly related to a fund’s operations based upon the number of investors in the fund and the fund’s capitalization relative to other funds they manage.  The Company reimburses these expenses subject to detailed limitations contained in the Operating Agreement.

Results of Operations

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized rental income from continuing operations of $1,954,937 and $1,780,325, respectively.  In 2012, rental income increased due to additional rent received from two property acquisitions in 2011 and 2012 and rent increases on three properties.  Based on the scheduled rent for the properties owned as of October 31, 2012, the Company expects to recognize rental income from continuing operations of approximately $2,624,000 and $2,691,000 in 2012 and 2013, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company incurred LLC administration expenses from affiliated parties of $259,483 and $269,801, respectively.  These administration expenses include costs associated with the management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting requirements and communicating with the Limited Members.  During the same periods, the Company incurred LLC administration and property management expenses from unrelated parties of $54,018 and $50,901, respectively.  These expenses represent direct payments to third parties for legal and filing fees, direct administrative costs, outside audit costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Partnership incurred property acquisition expenses of $27,240 related to the purchase of the Coliseum Health urgent care clinic in Macon, Georgia.

In September 2012, the Company sold 18,208 square feet of land from the Jared Jewelry property in Aurora, Illinois, pursuant to a threat of condemnation from the state of Illinois Department of Transportation.  The Company received net proceeds of $452,523, which resulted in a net loss of $464.  The cost allocated to the parcel of land was $452,987.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized interest income of $6,763 and $12,655, respectively.  In 2012, interest income decreased primarily due to the Company having less money invested in a money market account due to property acquisitions.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

Upon complete disposal of a property or classification of a property as Real Estate Held for Sale, the Company includes the operating results and sale of the property in discontinued operations.  In addition, the Company reclassifies the prior periods’ operating results of the property to discontinued operations.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recognized income from discontinued operations of $934,982 representing rental income of $75,255 and gain on disposal of real estate of $859,727.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recognized income from discontinued operations of $265,626, representing rental income less property management expenses and depreciation of $130,357 and gain on disposal of real estate of $135,269.

During the last three quarters of 2011, the Company sold its remaining 32.5589% interest in the Applebee’s restaurant in Macedonia, Ohio, in five separate transactions, to unrelated third parties.  The Company received total net sale proceeds of $1,095,688, which resulted in a net gain of $159,873.  The cost and related accumulated depreciation of the interests sold were $1,020,657 and $84,842, respectively.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the net gain was $135,269.

In March 2012, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Tractor Supply Company store in Marion, Indiana to an unrelated third party.  On May 1, 2012, the sale closed with the Company receiving net sale proceeds of $3,050,707, which resulted in a net gain of $859,727.  At the time of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $2,939,385 and $748,405, respectively.  At December 31, 2011, the property was classified as Real Estate Held for Sale with a carrying value of $2,190,980.

Management believes inflation has not significantly affected income from operations.  Leases may contain rent increases, based on the increase in the Consumer Price Index over a specified period, which will result in an increase in rental income over the term of the leases.  Inflation also may cause the real estate to appreciate in value.  However, inflation and changing prices may have an adverse impact on the operating margins of the properties' tenants, which could impair their ability to pay rent and subsequently reduce the Net Cash Flow available for distributions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company's cash balances increased $2,407,651 as a result of cash generated from the sale of property, which was partially offset by cash used to purchase property and distributions and redemption payments paid to the Members in excess of cash generated from operating activities.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company's cash balances increased $830,741 as a result of cash generated from the sale of property, which was partially offset by distributions and redemption payments paid to the Members in excess of cash generated from operating activities.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

Net cash provided by operating activities increased from $1,682,015 in 2011 to $1,756,105 in 2012 as a result of an increase in total rental and interest income in 2012, a decrease in LLC administration and property management expenses in 2012 and net timing differences in the collection of payments from the tenants and the payment of expenses.  During 2012, cash from operations was reduced by $27,240 of acquisition expenses related to the purchase of real estate.  Pursuant to accounting guidance, these expenses were reflected as operating cash outflows.  However, pursuant to the Company’s Operating Agreement, acquisition expenses were funded with proceeds from property sales.

The major components of the Company's cash flow from investing activities are investments in real estate and proceeds from the sale of real estate.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company generated cash flow from the sale of real estate of $3,503,230 and $918,644, respectively.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company expended $967,500 to invest in real properties as the Company reinvested cash generated from property sales.

On October 21, 2011, the Company purchased a 72% interest in a Staples store in Clermont, Florida for $2,307,312.  The property is leased to Staples the Office Superstore East, Inc. under a Lease Agreement with a remaining primary term of 8.4 years (as of the date of purchase) and annual rent of $187,795 for the interest purchased.  The remaining interest in the property was purchased by AEI Income & Growth Fund XXII Limited Partnership, an affiliate of the Company.

On July 25, 2012, the Company purchased a 50% interest in a Coliseum Health urgent care clinic in Macon, Georgia for $967,500.  The property is leased to Macon Healthcare, LLC under a Lease Agreement with a remaining primary term of 11.7 years and annual rent of $79,625 for the interest purchased.  The remaining interest in the property was purchased by AEI Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC, an affiliate of the Company.

The Company's primary use of cash flow, other than investment in real estate, is distribution and redemption payments to Members.  The Company declares its regular quarterly distributions before the end of each quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end of each quarter.  The Company attempts to maintain a stable distribution rate from quarter to quarter.  Redemption payments are paid to redeeming Members on a semi-annual basis.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company declared distributions of $1,741,617 and $1,634,847, respectively.  Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, distributions of Net Cash Flow were allocated 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members.  Distributions of Net Proceeds of Sale were allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members.  The Limited Members received distributions of $1,691,504 and $1,585,802 and the Managing Members received distributions of $50,113 and $49,045 for the periods, respectively.  In June 2012, the Company declared a special distribution of net sale proceeds of $106,768, which resulted in higher distributions declared in 2012.  The special distribution represented a return of capital of $2.52 per LLC Unit.  The Company anticipates the remaining net sale proceeds will either be reinvested in additional property or distributed to the Members in the future.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

The Company may acquire Units from Limited Members who have tendered their Units to the Company.  Such Units may be acquired at a discount.  The Company will not be obligated to purchase in any year more than 2% of the total number of Units outstanding on January 1 of such year.  In no event shall the Company be obligated to purchase Units if, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, such purchase would impair the capital or operation of the Company.

On April 1, 2012, two Limited Members redeemed a total of 55.00 Units for $34,726 in accordance with the Operating Agreement. On April 1, 2011, two Limited Members redeemed a total of 42.99 Units for $27,454.  The Company acquired these Units using Net Cash Flow from operations.  In prior years, a total of ten Limited Members redeemed 462.40 Units for $335,382.  The redemptions increase the remaining Limited Members’ ownership interest in the Company.  As a result of these redemption payments and pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Managing Members received distributions of $1,074 and $849 in 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The continuing rent payments from the properties, together with cash generated from property sales, should be adequate to fund continuing distributions and meet other Company obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.

The Economy and Market Conditions

The impact of conditions in the economy over the last few years, including the turmoil in the credit markets, has adversely affected many real estate investment funds.  However, the absence of mortgage financing on the Company’s properties eliminates the risks of foreclosure and debt-refinancing that can negatively impact the value and distributions of leveraged real estate investment funds.  Nevertheless, a prolonged economic downturn may adversely affect the operations of the Company’s tenants and their cash flows.  If a tenant were to default on its lease obligations, the Company’s income would decrease, its distributions would likely be reduced and the value of its properties might decline.
