ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of First Industrial Securities,
L.P.'s (the "Company") financial condition and the results of operations
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
At September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company owned 19 properties with
approximately 2.2 million square feet.
COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 TO NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
Total revenues decreased by $.2 million, or 2.0%, due primarily to a
slight decrease in occupancy.
Property expenses, which include real estate taxes, repairs and
maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other expenses,
remained relatively unchanged.
Depreciation and amortization remained relatively unchanged.
COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
Total revenues remained relatively unchanged.
Property expenses, which include real estate taxes, repairs and
maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other expenses,
decreased by $.3 million, or 26.0%. This decrease is due primarily to a
decrease in real estate taxes for the Company's properties located in Chicago,
Illinois and Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Depreciation and amortization remained relatively unchanged.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.5 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 compared to $5.8 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996. The decrease is primarily due to the operations of
the properties as discussed in the results of operations above.
Net cash used in investing activities was $1.2 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 compared to $ .8 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996. The majority of the cash used in investing activities was
for capital improvements of the Company's properties.
Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September
30, 1997 consisted of preferred limited partner distributions of $2.9 million
and a general and limited partner distribution of $2.3 million. Net cash used
in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 consisted
of preferred limited partner distributions of $2.9 million and a general a

The Company has considered its short-term (less than one year) liquidity
requirements and the adequacy of its estimated cash flows from operations. The
Company believes that its liquidity needs are to fund normal recurring
expenses, and to pay the quarterly preferred limited partnership distribution
and other partnership distributions. The Company anticipates that these needs
will be met with cash flows provided by operating activities.
The Company expects to fund its long-term (greater than one year)
liquidity requirements for non-recurring capital improvements with its cash
flows from operations and in part with a deferred maintenance escrow
established in connection with the issuance of First Industrial Realty Trust,
Inc.'s Series A Preferred Stock which is included in restricted cash on the
balance sheet.
