MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations:
- ----------------------
Three months ended June 30, 1996 compared to three months ended June 30, 1995:
The Partnership's net income was $531,000 and $555,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, representing a decrease of $24,000,
or 4%. This decrease was primarily due to an increase in depreciation expenses
and a decrease in interest income, partially offset by decreases in
administrative expenses and minority interest in income for those properties
held jointly with Public Storage, Inc. ("PSI").
Net property income (rental income less cost of operations and management
fees and excluding depreciation) for the three months ended June 30, 1996
increased $17,000 or 1%, as rental income increased $67,000 or 3%, and costs of
operations (including management fees and excluding depreciation expense)
increased $50,000 or 6% compared to the same period in 1995.
Rental income for the Partnership's mini-warehouse operations was
$2,415,000 compared to $2,364,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively, representing an increase of $51,000, or 2%. This increase
was primarily attributable to increased rental rates and occupancy levels. The
monthly average realized rent per square foot for the mini-warehouse facilities
was $.61 compared to $.60 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The weighted average occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse
facilities was 90% compared to 89% for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively. Cost of operations (including management fees) for the
mini-warehouses increased $48,000 or 6%, to $858,000 from $810,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. This increase was primarily
attributable to increases in payroll and property tax expenses. Accordingly, for
the Partnership's mini-warehouse operations, property net operating income
increased $3,000 or .2%, from $1,554,000 to $1,557,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively.
Rental income for the Partnership's business park operations increased
$16,000 or 7%, to $231,000 from $215,000 for the three months ended June 30,
1996 and 1995, respectively. The weighted average occupancy levels at the
business park facilities was 100% compared to 99% for the three months ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The monthly average realized rent per
square foot for the business park facilities was $.53 compared to $.49 for the
three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Cost of operations
(including management fees) for the business parks increased $2,000 or 2%, to
$94,000 from $92,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. Accordingly, for the Partnership's business park facilities,
property net operating income increased $14,000, or 11%, to $137,000 from
$123,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $69,000, from $529,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1995 to $598,000 for the same period in 1996. This
increase is due to the depreciation of capital expenditures which were made
during 1995 and 1996.
Minority interest in income decreased $26,000 to $540,000 from $566,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. This decrease was
primarily attributable to the allocation of depreciation and amortization
expenses (pursuant to the partnership agreement with respect to those real
estate facilities which are jointly owned with PSI) to PSI of $29,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1996, partially offset by increased operations at
the Partnership's real estate facilities for those properties owned jointly with
PSI.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to six months ended June 30, 1995:
The Partnership's net income was $1,024,000 and $1,091,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, representing a decrease of
$67,000, or 6%. This decrease was primarily due to increases in depreciation
expense and a decrease in interest income, partially offset by decreases in
administrative expenses and minority interest in income for those properties
held jointly with PSI.
Net property income (rental income less cost of operations and management
fees and excluding depreciation) for the six months ended June 30, 1996
increased $22,000 or .7%, as rental income increased $124,000 or 2%, and costs
of operations (including management fees and excluding depreciation expense)
increased $102,000 or 6%, compared to the same period in 1995.
Rental income for the Partnership's mini-warehouse operations was
$4,784,000 compared to $4,655,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively, representing an increase of $129,000, or 3%. This increase
was primarily attributable to increased rental rates and occupancy levels. The
weighted average occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse facilities was 89%
compared to 88% for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The monthly average realized rent per square foot for the mini-warehouse
facilities was $.61 compared to $.60 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively. Costs of operations (including management fees) for the
mini-warehouses increased $89,000 or 5%, to $1,727,000 from $1,638,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. This increase was
primarily attributable to increases in payroll and property tax expenses.
Accordingly, for the Partnership's mini-warehouse operations, property net
operating income increased $40,000 or 1% from $3,017,000 to $3,057,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively.
Rental income for the Partnership's business park operations decreased
$5,000 or 1%, to $450,000 from $455,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996
and 1995, respectively. The weighted average occupancy levels at the business
park facilities was 100% compared to 98% for the six months ended June 30, 1996
and 1995, respectively. The monthly average realized rent per square foot for
the business park facilities was $.51 compared to $.48 for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Cost of operations (including management
fees) for the business parks increased $13,000 or 7%, to $194,000 from $181,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Accordingly, for
the Partnership's business park facilities, property net operating income
decreased by $18,000 or 7%, from $274,000 to $256,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $120,000, from $1,071,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1995 to $1,191,000 for the same period in 1996.
This increase is due to the depreciation of capital expenditures which were made
during 1995 and 1996.
Minority interest in income decreased $44,000 to $1,059,000 from $1,103,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. This decrease was
primarily attributable to the allocation of depreciation and amortization
expenses (pursuant to the partnership agreement with respect to those real
estate facilities which are jointly owned with PSI) to PSI of $55,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1996, partially offset by increased operations at the
Partnership's real estate facilities for those properties owned jointly with
PSI.

PS PARTNERS VII, LTD.,

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Partnership has adequate sources of cash to finance its operations,
both on a short-term and long-term basis, primarily from internally generated
cash from property operations and cash reserves. Cash generated from operations
($3,353,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996) has been sufficient to meet
all current obligations of the Partnership.
During 1996, the Partnership anticipates approximately $1,464,000 of
capital improvements (of which $429,000 represents PSI's joint venture share).
During 1995, the Partnership's property manager commenced a program to enhance
the visual appearance of the mini-warehouse facilities managed by it. Such
enhancements will include new signs, exterior color schemes, and improvements to
the rental offices. In addition, several of the Texas properties are undergoing
major property enhancements, which include the installation of climate control.
Total capital improvements were $951,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996
of which $679,000 represents the Partnership's share.
The Partnership paid distributions to the limited and general partners
totaling $1,742,000 ($16.01 per unit) and $213,000, respectively, during the
first six months of 1996. In the second quarter of 1996, the Partnership reduced
the distribution rate from $9.01 to $7.00 per quarter. In mid-1995, the
Partnership made a special distribution of $8.19 that significantly reduced the
Partnership's cash reserves. Over the last year there has been no significant
improvement to the Partnership's operations. The General Partners believe that
modest increases in the Partnership's operations should enable the Partnership
to maintain distributions at a level of $7.00 per quarter, while making
necessary capital improvements to the Partnership's properties and replenishing
the Partnership's cash reserves.
