Exhibit 99.1

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared to reflect the proposed merger. The merger will be accounted for using the purchase method as prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations,” with intangible assets, if any, to be recorded in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The allocation of the purchase price reflected in the pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet is preliminary and is subject to change. We can give no assurance that when the audit with respect to such allocation of purchase price is completed the financial information will not change or that any change will not be material.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2006 has been prepared to reflect the merger, as if the merger occurred on March 31, 2006. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the three months ended March 31, 2006 have been prepared assuming the merger occurred on January 1, 2005. The adjustments made to the pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet have been made to reflect the financing of the merger and the allocation of the purchase price and other costs of the merger to the tangible and intangible assets acquired. The adjustments made to the pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income have been made to reflect the estimated impact on income allocated to minority interest, income allocated to preferred shareholders, and interest expense as a result of financing the merger, the impact of eliminating certain duplicate administrative costs that will be eliminated as a result of the merger, the impact on depreciation and amortization expense of increasing the carrying values of the real estate assets and intangible assets acquired, the impact of reduced interest income reflecting the utilization of cash on hand to fund the merger, as well as to reclassify certain items in Shurgard’s historical balances in order to conform to Public Storage’s presentation.

The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and on certain assumptions as set forth in the notes to the pro forma consolidated financial statements that we believe are reasonable in the circumstances. The pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of Public Storage and Shurgard, which are included in their respective Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). You can find these reports at the Commission’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

The following pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not purport to represent what Public Storage’s results of operations would actually have been if the merger had in fact occurred as of January 1, 2005 or to project Public Storage’s results of operations for any future date or period.

As a result of the merger, Public Storage believes that there will be certain cost efficiencies due to the economies of scale of having a larger number of facilities in certain markets after the merger is consummated. Public Storage expects such cost efficiencies in telephone directory advertising, property insurance, and payroll cost with respect to supervisory personnel. In addition, some of Shurgard’s facilities will be subject to property tax reappraisal resulting in increases to property tax expense. Public Storage is evaluating the potential cost savings and increase in property taxes; however, it is not able to quantify the amount of such savings or costs at this time. Accordingly, no adjustments have been made to the pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income to reflect expected cost savings or increases to property taxes.

NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET

(Unaudited)

1. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED SECURITIES:

On May 3, 2006, Public Storage issued shares of its 7.25% Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series I, for gross proceeds of approximately $517.5 million (net proceeds of approximately $501.6 million). In addition, on May 9, 2006, one of Public Storage’s consolidated subsidiaries issued partnership units of its 7.25% Cumulative Preferred Units, Series J, for gross proceeds of $100.0 million (net proceeds also $100.0 million). The aggregate net proceeds from these transactions are expected to be used to fund the cash requirements of the merger. The following pro forma adjustments have been made to reflect these transactions as of March 31, 2006:


	Amounts in thousands
Cash and cash equivalents has been increased to reflect the net proceeds from the issuance of the preferred securities	$	601,601

Minority interest – preferred has been increased to reflect the issuance of the 7.25% Series J Cumulative Preferred Units	$	100,000

Preferred stock has been increased to reflect the issuance of the 7.25% Series I Cumulative Preferred Stock, at liquidation value	$	517,500

Paid in Capital has been reduced to reflect the cost of issuing the preferred securities	$	(15,899	)

2. PRO FORMA MERGER ADJUSTMENTS:

The merger will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The total purchase price will be allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities based upon their respective estimated fair values. Pursuant to the merger, Shurgard would be merged into a subsidiary of Public Storage, and Public Storage would issue to Shurgard shareholders 0.82 of a share of Public Storage common stock in exchange for each Shurgard common share that they own. In connection with the merger, all outstanding Shurgard stock options will become immediately vested as of the close of the merger. Holders of Shurgard’s stock options will receive options exercisable for shares of Public Storage common stock on a basis of 0.82 of a Public Storage option for each Shurgard option owned.

In connection with the merger, Shurgard’s line of credit will be repaid and all of its preferred stock will be redeemed at liquidation value plus any accrued and unpaid distributions. In addition, Public Storage plans to repay certain outstanding notes payable of Shurgard totaling $67.0 million as of March 31, 2006. Public Storage expects to fund these activities with cash on-hand.

The purchase price of the net assets to be acquired pursuant to the merger will be equal to the fair value of the Public Storage common stock to be issued combined with the direct costs associated with the merger. In determining the fair value of the Public Storage common stock to be issued in the merger a share price of $79.97, less estimated cost of issuing such shares, has been used in these pro forma financial statements. The $79.97 per common share was based on the average closing price of a share of Public Storage common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the period between the five business days before and the five business days after the announcement of the merger (March 7, 2006) where closing prices varied between a high of $82.98 and a low of $77.17 per common share.

Direct costs related to the merger that are expected to be paid at the merger date or shortly thereafter are estimated at approximately $68.1 million: consisting of (i) estimated financial advisory, legal, accounting, and

other miscellaneous expenses totaling approximately $47.0 million, and (ii) expected severance payments to Shurgard management based on contractual change of control provisions of approximately $21.1 million; such severance payments relate specifically to management who will be terminated on or immediately following the consummation of the merger.

The following reflects the preliminary determination of purchase price, and the allocation of the purchase price to the net assets acquired.

(Unaudited)

1. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED SECURITIES:

Subsequent to March 31, 2006, Public Storage issued certain preferred securities raising net proceeds from these issuances totaling $601.6 million (see Note 1 to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet).

3. PRO FORMA MERGER ADJUSTMENTS:

In connection with the merger, borrowings under Shurgard’s line of credit will be repaid ($620.7 million), certain Shurgard borrowings under notes payable will be repaid ($67.0 million), Shurgard’s outstanding preferred stock will be redeemed at liquidation value ($136.3 million) plus any accrued and unpaid distributions, and we expect to incur merger related costs of approximately $68.1 million. Public Storage expects to fund these capital requirements with cash on-hand.

The following pro forma adjustments have been recorded to reflect the impact of the above related merger financing:


	Year ended December 31, 2005			Three months ended March 31, 2006

	(Amounts in thousands)
Pro forma adjustments have been made to depreciation and amortization expense to:
• Eliminate Shurgard’s historical depreciation and amortization expense	$	(95,722	)	$	(25,923	)
• Record depreciation expense based on the purchase price allocated to real estate facilities. Depreciation was calculated based on an expected useful life of 25 years assuming approximately 80% of the fair value allocated to Shurgard’s real estate facilities was allocated to buildings and 20% allocated to land. This allocation is based on Shurgard’s existing portfolio and is subject to change based on final evaluations and completion of the merger.		160,703			40,176
• Record amortization of intangible assets based on the purchase price allocated to existing customer base in place. Amortization was calculated based upon the increased net operating income to be received assuming the current tenant base is in place, as compared to the net operating income that would be achieved were the facilities acquired with no tenant base in place. Future amortization will decline substantially to approximately $77,301 in the second year following the merger $17,728 in the third year following the merger, and an aggregate of $26,031 in ensuing years.		263,656			29,496

	$	328,637		$	43,749

Pro forma adjustments have been recorded to reduce general and administrative expenses for expenses that we expect to eliminate as a result of the merger, including $6,186,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and $1,940,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 in salaries for those personnel that will be terminated on or immediately following the consummation of the merger; $9,400,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and $1,086,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 in duplicative audit fees and SOX compliance costs that will be no longer incurred on a go-forward basis following the merger; and $7,156,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and $1,275,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 in other miscellaneous duplicative costs associated with being a public company such as board of director costs and investor services costs.	$	(22,742	)	$	(4,301	)

Public Storage believes that there will be certain cost efficiencies due to the economies of scale of having a larger number of facilities in certain markets after the merger is consummated. Public Storage expects such cost efficiencies in telephone directory advertising, property insurance, and payroll cost with respect to supervisory personnel. In addition, some of Shurgard’s facilities will be subject to property tax reappraisal resulting in increases to property tax expense. Public Storage is evaluating the potential cost savings and increase in property taxes; however, it is not able to quantify the amount of such savings or costs at this time. Accordingly, no adjustments have been made to the pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income to reflect expected cost savings or increases to property taxes.

4. PRO FORMA EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE:

For purposes of determining earnings per common share on both basic and diluted basis, income (loss) from continuing operations was allocated to preferred shareholders, Equity Stock, Series A shareholders and common shareholders as follows:

have been made in the above table to allocate income from continuing operations to such securities for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the three months ended March 31, 2006, respectively. In connection with the merger, Shurgard’s preferred stock would be redeemed and restricted shares would become fully vested. As a result, pro forma merger adjustments were made to eliminate historical income allocated to such securities totaling $12,153,000 and $3,037,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the three months ended March 31, 2006, respectively.

Historical weighted average shares outstanding were reduced by 8,399,000 and 9,059,000 shares for purposes of determining earnings per common share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2005 and 8,452,000 and 8,673,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2006. These reductions were determined as follows:

Less adjustment to eliminate outstanding stock options and restricted stock from diluted shares, because there is a pro-forma loss allocable to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2005, and inclusion would be anti-dilutive for Public Storage stock options and restricted stock	—		(660	)	—		—
