See accompanying notes. 5 PUBLIC STORAGE PROPERTIES, LTD. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information 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 management believes that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes appearing in the Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. 2. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal accruals, necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial position at September 30, 1999, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 and its cash flows for the nine months then ended. 3. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. 4. On June 1, 1998, the Partnership paid down its mortgage note with a third party lender by $11,641,000. The payment was made from cash reserves and an $11,000,000 loan from Public Storage, Inc., a general partner of the Partnership. The loan from Public Storage, Inc. required monthly interest payments at fixed rate of 7.3% and was scheduled to mature June 1999. The loan to Public Storage, Inc. was paid off in October 1998 from proceeds from a loan with a commercial bank. 5. During October 1998, the Partnership borrowed $12,400,000 from a commercial bank to payoff the loan from Public Storage, Inc. and the mortgage note with a third party. The loan is unsecured and bears interest at the London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus 0.55% (5.96% as of September 30, 1999). The loan requires monthly payments of interest and matures October 2002. Principal may be paid, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium. 6 5. (continued) The Partnership also entered into interest rate swap agreements to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on a portion of its floating rate debt. The agreement, which covers $5,000,000 of debt through October 2000, effectively changes the interest rate exposure from floating rate to a fixed rate of 5.205%. The second agreement, which covers $2,500,000 of debt through October 2001 and effectively changes the interest rate exposure from floating rate to a fixed rate of 5.33%. Market gains and losses on the value of the swap are deferred and included in income over the life of the contract. The Partnership records the differences paid or received on the interest rate swap in interest expense as payments are made or received. As of September 30, 1999 the unrealized gain on the interest swap, if required to be liquidated was approximately $150,000. 7 PUBLIC STORAGE PROPERTIES, LTD., 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 - --------------------- THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998: The Partnership's net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $1,685,000 compared to $1,222,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, representing an increase of $463,000 or 38%. The Partnership's net income for the three months ended September 30, 1999 was $635,000 compared to $441,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998, representing an increase of $194,000 or 44%. These increases are primarily a result of increased property operating results combined with a decrease in interest expense resulting from the October 1998 refinancing of the outstanding debt. Rental income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $3,709,000 compared to $3,431,000 for the nine months ended September 30,1998, representing an increase of $278,000 or 8%. Rental income for the three months ended September 30, 1999 was $1,296,000 compared to $1,164,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998, representing an increase of $132,000 or 11%. These increases are primarily attributable to higher rental rates at the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities. The weighted average occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse facilities were 94% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998. Average annual realized rent for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 increased to $10.41 per occupied square foot from $9.62 per occupied square foot for the nine months ended September 30,1998. 8 Cost of operations (including management fees paid to an affiliate) for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $1,082,000 compared to $997,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, representing an increase of $85,000 or 9%. Cost of operations (including management fees paid to an affiliate) for the three months ended September 30, 1999 was $359,000 compared to $341,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998, representing an increase of $18,000 or 5%. This increase is mainly attributable to increases in professional fees, management fees, and advertising and promotion expenses. Interest expense decreased $358,000 to $459,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $817,000 for the same period in 1998. This decrease is mainly attributable to lower outstanding principal balances and lower interest rates on the Partnership's indebtedness. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for a discussion of the refinancing of the Partnership's indebtedness. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- Cash generated from operations ($2,106,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999) has been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the Partnership. On June 1, 1998, the Partnership paid down its mortgage note with a third party lender by $11,641,000. The payment was made from cash reserves and an $11,000,000 loan from Public Storage, Inc. The loan from Public Storage, Inc. bears interest at the fixed rate of 7.3% and matured June 1999. The loan to Public Storage, Inc. was paid off in October 1998 from the proceeds from a loan with a commercial bank. During October 1998, the Partnership borrowed $12,400,000 from a commercial bank to payoff the loan from Public Storage, Inc. and the mortgage note with a third party. The loan is unsecured and bears interest at the London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus 0.55% (5.96% as of September 30, 1999). The loan requires monthly payments of interest and mature October 2002. Principal may be paid, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium. The Partnership also entered into interest rate swap agreements to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on a portion of its floating rate debt. The agreement, which covers $5,000,000 of debt through October 2000, effectively changes the interest rate exposure from floating rate to a fixed rate of 5.205%. The second agreement, which covers $2,500,000 of debt through October 2001 and effectively changes the interest rate exposure from floating rate to a fixed rate of 5.33%. Market gains and losses on the value of the swap are deferred and included in income over the life of the contract. The Partnership records the differences paid or received on the interest rate swap in interest expense as payments are made or received. As of September 30, 1999, the unrealized gain on the interest rate swap, if required to be liquidated was approximately $150,000. 9 Year 2000 System Issues - ----------------------- The Partnership utilizes Public Storage, Inc.'s ("PSI") 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 the 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. Implementations have been completed on PSI's critical applications that impact the Partnership, such as the general ledger, property operations, and related systems. Contingency plans have been developed for use in case PSI's assessment did not identify all Y2K issues, or if the implementation were subsequently determined to not fully remediate Y2K issues that were identified. 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, have been evaluated. Based upon its evaluation, PSI has no reason to believe that lack of compliance or failure of required solutions 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 Year 2000 compliant. 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 PSI 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 PSI's year 2000 compliance activities (which primarily consists of the costs of new systems) to be allocated to the Partnership is estimated at approximately $40,311. These costs are capitalized. PSI's year 2000 compliance efforts have not resulted in any significant deferrals in other information system projects. 10 The costs of the projects and the date on which PSI expects 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 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. 11 PART II.
