MOBILE MINI, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A - The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial  information and the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly,  they do
not include all the  information  and footnotes  required by generally  accepted
accounting  principles  for  complete  financial  statements.  In the opinion of
management,  all adjustments  (which include only normal recurring  adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial position,  results of operations,  and
cash flows for all periods  presented  have been made. The results of operations
for the six-month  period ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily  indicative of
the operating  results that may be expected for the entire year ending  December
31, 1996.  These  financial  statements  should be read in conjunction  with the
Company's December 31, 1995 financial statements and accompanying notes thereto.

NOTE B - Earnings  (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by
the weighted  average  number of common share  equivalents  assumed  outstanding
during the periods.  Fully  diluted  earnings per share is  considered  equal to
primary earnings per share in all periods presented.

NOTE C - In December 1995, the Company completed the private placement of 50,000
shares of Series A  Convertible  Preferred  Stock  ("Series A"), $.01 par value,
$100 stated  value.  Subject to the terms of the Series A, all 50,000  shares of
Series A were converted into 1,904,324  shares of the Company's  common stock at
an average conversion rate of $2.63 per share during the first quarter of 1996.

NOTE D - On March 29, 1996,  the Company  entered into a credit  agreement  (the
"Credit  Agreement")  with BT  Commercial  Corporation,  as Agent for a group of
lenders (the "Lenders").  Under the terms of the Credit  Agreement,  the Lenders
have  provided the Company with a $35.0 million  revolving  line of credit and a
$6.0 million term loan.  Borrowings  under the Credit  Agreement  are secured by
substantially all of the Company's assets.

In connection with the closing of the Credit Agreement,  the Company  terminated
its line of credit with its former lender,  repaying all indebtedness under that
line. In addition, the Company repaid other long-term debt and obligations under
capital leases totaling $14.1 million.  As a result,  costs previously  deferred
related  to  certain  indebtedness  and  prepayment  penalties  resulted  in  an
extraordinary charge to earnings of approximately  $410,000 after the benefit of
income taxes.

NOTE E - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market,  with cost being
determined  under the  specific  identification  method.  Market is the lower of
replacement cost or net realizable value. Inventories consisted of the following
at:

NOTE G - On March 29,  1996,  the  Company  purchased  property  adjacent to its
Maricopa  facility from Mr. Richard E. Bunger,  the Company's  President,  for a
purchase price of $335,000,  which management  believes reflects the fair market
value of the property. Prior to the purchase date, this property was leased from
Mr. Bunger.

Transactions  with  affiliates  are on terms  no less  favorable  than  could be
obtained  from  unaffiliated  parties  and are  approved  by a  majority  of the
independent and disinterested directors.

NOTE H - Revenues  for the six months  ended June 30,  1995  include the sale of
certain storage containers under sale/leaseback  arrangements.  Gains from these
transactions  have been  deferred and are being  amortized  over the life of the
related asset.

 ITEM 2. 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

         Revenues  for the quarter  ended June 30, 1996 were  $10,261,000  which
represents a 1.2% decrease from  revenues of  $10,390,000  for the quarter ended
June 30,  1995.  Revenues  from both the  sales of the  Company's  products  and
leasing of portable storage and office units were higher,  posting  increases of
11.2% and 7.2% respectively, exclusive of container sales revenue recorded under
sale/leaseback  transactions.  In 1995, the Company's  sales  revenues  included
approximately  $1,145,000 in revenue recorded under sale/leaseback  transactions
related  principally  to storage  containers  and portable  office units.  These
revenues were offset by equivalent  cost of container  sales and did not produce
gross  margin.  During the  current  year,  the  Company  did not enter into any
sale/leaseback transactions.

         Excluding the effect of sale/leaseback transactions,  cost of container
and modular  building  sales as a percentage of container  and modular  building
sales for the quarter  ended June 30,  1996 was 89.1%  compared to 72.4% for the
same quarter in 1995. This increase is attributable to the mix of products sold,
a shortage in supply of used ISO containers which caused an increase in the cost
of these  containers  and led the Company to increase  its sales of lower margin
manufactured  new  containers,  and a  refinement  in the  Company's  method  of
allocating certain indirect manufacturing costs.

         Excluding the effect of sale/leaseback  transactions,  leasing, selling
and general  expenses  were 31.3% of total revenue in the quarter ended June 30,
1996  compared  to 44.8%  in the  quarter  ended  June 30,  1995.  The  decrease
primarily  results from continued  efficiencies  obtained by the Company's Texas
operations,  which were in their  start-up  phase during 1995 in addition to the
refinement in the Company's method of allocating certain indirect  manufacturing
costs.

         Interest expense totalled 9.8% of revenues during the second quarter of
1996 compared to 7.0% of revenues  during the quarter ended June 30, 1995.  This
increase  was due  largely  to the costs  related  to  financing  a  substantial
increase in the Company's  equipment and container  lease fleet,  increasing the
Company's  average debt level by 60%. This  increase was  partially  offset by a
decrease  of nearly 2% in the  Company's  borrowing  rate  resulting  from lower
interest rates under the Company's new credit facility.

         Depreciation and  amortization  increased from 3.0% of revenues for the
quarter  ended June 30, 1995 to 3.7% for the quarter  ended June 30, 1996.  This
increase  is  related  primarily  to the  increase  in  size  of  the  Company's
manufacturing facility, the increase in the Company's lease fleet and additional
equipment at the Company's locations.

         The Company posted a 72.7% increase in net income to $323,000,  or $.05
per share,  for the  quarter  ended  June 30,  1996,  compared  to net income of
$187,000,  or $.04 per share,  for the quarter ended June 30, 1995. The weighted
average common shares outstanding increased by 39% during the quarter ended June
30, 1996, as compared to the prior year.

                   Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared to
                         Six Months Ended June 30, 1995

         Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were $19,118,000  which
represents a 0.3% increase over revenues of $19,065,000 for the six months ended
June 30,  1995.  Revenues  from both the  sales of the  Company's  products  and
leasing of portable storage and office units were higher, both increasing 15.7%,
exclusive of container sale revenue recorded under sale/leaseback  transactions.
In 1995,  the Company's  sales  revenues  included  approximately  $2,546,000 in
revenue  recorded  under  sale/leaseback  transactions  related  principally  to
storage  containers  and portable  office units.  These  revenues were offset by
equivalent cost of container sales and did not produce gross margin.  During the
current year, the Company did not enter into any sale/leaseback transactions.

and general  expenses  were 37.1% of total revenue for the six months ended June
30, 1996 compared to 46.1% for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  The decrease
primarily  results from the  continued  efficiencies  obtained by the  Company's
Texas operations, which were in their start-up phase during 1995, in addition to
the  refinement  in  the  Company's   method  of  allocating   certain  indirect
manufacturing costs.

         Interest expense totalled 10.2% of revenues during the six months ended
June 30, 1996 compared to 7.2% of revenues during the same period ended June 30,
1995.  This  increase  was due  largely  to the costs  related  to  financing  a
substantial  increase in the  Company's  equipment  and  container  lease fleet,
increasing the Company's  average debt level by 58%. This increase was partially
offset by a decrease of nearly 2% in the Company's borrowing rate resulting from
lower interest rates under the Company's new credit facility.

         Depreciation and amortization increased to 3.9% of revenues for the six
months  ended June 30,  1996 from 2.9% for the six months  ended June 30,  1995.
This  increase is related  primarily  to the  increase in size of the  Company's
manufacturing facility, the increase in the Company's lease fleet and additional
equipment at the Company's locations.

         The Company  posted income before  extraordinary  item of $209,000,  or
$.03 per share,  for the six months ended June 30, 1996,  compared to net income
of $237,000,  or $.05 per share,  for the six months  ended June 30,  1995.  The
weighted  average  common  shares  outstanding  increased  by 39% during the six
months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the prior year.

         In the first  quarter of 1996,  the Company  prepaid  certain  debt and
capital  leases  in  connection  with  entering  into a  credit  agreement  (see
Liquidity and Capital Resources). The Company recognized an extraordinary charge
to earnings of $410,000, or $.06 per share, net of the benefit for income taxes,
as a result of this early  extinguishment  of debt.  The Company  also  incurred
costs of $1,960,000 to complete the credit  agreement,  which have been deferred
and are amortized over the term of the credit agreement.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company has required increasing amounts of financing to support the
growth of its business  during the last several  years.  This financing has been
required primarily to fund the acquisition of containers for the Company's lease
fleet and also to fund the  acquisition of property,  plant and equipment and to
support both the Company's container leasing and manufacturing  operations.  The
financing consisted  primarily of capital leases or secured  borrowings,  equity
offerings and other borrowings.

         In order to improve its cash flow, increase its borrowing  availability
and fund its continued  growth,  on March 29, 1996,  the Company  entered into a
credit  agreement (the "Credit  Agreement") with BT Commercial  Corporation,  as
Agent for a group of  lenders  (the  "Lenders").  Under the terms of the  Credit
Agreement,  the Lenders provided the Company with a $35.0 million revolving line
of credit and a $6.0 million term loan.  Borrowings  under the Credit  Agreement
are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets.

         Borrowings  under  the term  loan  are to be  repaid  over a  five-year
period.  Interest on the term loan is at the  Company's  option at either  prime
plus 1.75% or the Eurodollar rate plus 3.25%. Borrowings under the term loan are
payable monthly as follows (plus interest):

         Months 1 through 12                $62,500
         Months 13 through 24                83,333
         Months 25 through 60               118,056

Additional  principal payments equal to 75% of Excess Cash Flow, as defined, are
required annually.

<PAGE>
         Available  borrowings under the revolving line of credit are based upon
the level of the Company's  inventories,  receivables and container lease fleet.
The container lease fleet will be appraised at least annually,  and up to 90% of
the lesser of cost or appraised orderly liquidation value may be included in the
borrowing base.  Interest  accrues at the Company's  option at either prime plus
1.5% or the Eurodollar  rate plus 3% and is payable monthly or at the end of the
term of any  Eurodollar  borrowing.  The term of this  line of  credit  is three
years,  with a one-year  extension  option. As of June 30, 1996, $1.8 million of
additional  borrowing  was  available  under the  revolving  line of credit,  in
addition to the $18.4  million  outstanding  as of June 30, 1996. As of July 31,
1996 the additional  borrowing  availability  remained the same at approximately
$1.8 million.

         The Credit  Agreement  contains several  covenants  including a minimum
tangible net worth requirement, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum
ratio of  debt-to-equity,  minimum  operating income levels and minimum required
utilization rates. In addition,  the Credit Agreement contains limits on capital
expenditures,  acquisitions,  changes in control,  the  incurrence of additional
debt and the payment of dividends.

         In connection  with the closing of the Credit  Agreement in March 1996,
the Company terminated its line of credit with its previous lender, repaying all
indebtedness  under that line. In addition,  the Company repaid other  long-term
debt and obligations under capital leases totaling $14.1 million.

         During the six months  ended June 30, 1996, the Company  utilized  cash
flow  from  operations  of  $2,260,000.  This net use of cash  was  attributable
primarily  to a reduction in accounts  payable and an increases in  inventories.
This was partially offset by a decrease in receivables.

         During  the six  months  ended  June 30,  1996,  the  Company  invested
$1,214,000 in equipment and the container lease fleet. This amount is net of the
$676,000 in related sales and financing.

         Cash flow from financing  activities  totaled $2,734,000 during the six
months ended June 30, 1996. This was the result of  restructuring  the Company's
long-term debt and obligations  under capital leases under the Credit  Agreement
described above,  partially offset by the principal payments on indebtedness and
an increase in other assets associated with deferred financing costs incurred in
connection with the closing of the Credit Agreement.

         The Company  believes that cash flow  generated from  operations  along
with the borrowing  capacity  under the Credit  Agreement  will be sufficient to
meet its  obligations  and capital  needs for the next twelve  months.  However,
there can be no assurance that additional  financing will not be required,  and,
if required, will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.

The  statement  regarding  the  Company's  ability to meet its  obligations  and
capital  needs  for the next  twelve  months  is a  forward  looking  statement.
Unanticipated events, however,  including a decrease in cash flow generated from
operations  or a  material  increase  in the  borrowing  rates  under the Credit
Agreement,  could cause actual  results to differ  materially  from  anticipated
results.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

         The results of operations of the Company for the periods discussed have
not been significantly affected by inflation.
