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, 1998 are not  necessarily  indicative of
the operating  results that may be expected for the entire year ending  December
31, 1998.  These  financial  statements  should be read in conjunction  with the
Company's December 31, 1997 financial statements and accompanying notes thereto.

Certain  amounts in the 1997  financial  statements  have been  reclassified  to
conform with the 1998 financial statement presentation.

NOTE B - The Company adopted SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share in 1997.  Pursuant
to SFAS No. 128,  basic  earnings  per common share are computed by dividing net
income by the  weighted  average  number of shares of common  stock  outstanding
during the year. Diluted earnings per common share are determined  assuming that
options were exercised at the beginning of each year or at the time of issuance.
SFAS No. 128 is effective  for  financial  statements  for both interim  periods
presented and as a result,  all prior period  earnings per share data  presented
has been restated.

NOTE C - The Company's  outstanding  Common Stock Purchase  Warrants,  issued in
connection with the Company's  initial public offering,  expired on February 17,
1998.  Prior to their  expiration,  1,046,212  of the  1,067,500  warrants  were
exercised, generating approximately $5.2 million in cash.

NOTE D - In January  1998,  the Company  acquired  the assets of Nevada  Storage
Containers,  a Las Vegas, Nevada based container leasing and sales business, for
approximately  $1.4  million  in cash and  approximately  85,000  shares  of the
Company's  common stock valued at $500,000.  Under the purchase  agreement,  the
shares of common stock will not be issued until one year from the closing date.

NOTE E - In April  1998,  the  Company  acquired  the  assets  of Aspen  Instant
Storage,  a company  engaged in  container  leasing and sales in Oklahoma  City,
Oklahoma.   The  purchase   price  was   approximately   $540,000  in  cash  and
approximately 18,000 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $184,000.

In April  1998,  the  Company  also  opened a new  leasing  and sales  branch in
Albuquerque,  New Mexico.  With this new  location,  the Company now operates 11
leasing  and  sales  offices  in  6  states,  in  addition  to  its  dealer  and
telecommunication divisions and its manufacturing facility.

NOTE F - 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 H - The Company maintains a container lease fleet consisting of refurbished
or manufactured storage containers and office units that are leased to customers
with varying terms. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method with
an  estimated  useful life of 20 years and a salvage  value  estimated at 70% of
cost. In management's  opinion,  estimated  salvage values do not cause carrying
values to exceed net realizable  value.  Normal  repairs and  maintenance to the
lease fleet are expensed as incurred.  As of June 30, 1998, the Company's  lease
fleet,  before  depreciation  and excluding  portable  modular  buildings  under
capital  lease  agreements,  was $62.2  million as compared to $50.9  million at
December 31, 1997. A portion of this increase reflects the acquisition of Nevada
Storage Container's and Aspen Instant Storage's container lease fleets.

NOTE I - In June 1998, the Company sold the remaining portable modular buildings
that were  under  lease  agreements  and  repaid the  underlying  capital  lease
obligations  related to these  buildings.  The  revenues  from  these  sales are
included in the accompanying statements of operations.

NOTE J - The Company has adapted  FASB No. 130  Reporting  Comprehensive  Income
effective January 1, 1998. The Company,  however, has not incurred  transactions
that are within the definitions of  "Comprehensive  Income" and accordingly,  is
not required to make  additional  disclosures in the  accompanying  consolidated
financial  statements for the current year or for the same period represented in
the prior year.

NOTE K - In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging  Activities.  Statement 133 provides a comprehensive  and consistent
standard  for  the  recognition  and  measurement  of  derivatives  and  hedging
activities.  The new statement  requires all  derivatives  to be recorded in the
balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value.

Statement 133 is effective for fiscal years  beginning  after June 15, 1999. The
Company  believes the adoption of Statement No. 133 currently would not have any
material  impact  in  the  Company's   financial   statements  or  its  business
operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
                                 OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                  Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to
                        Three Months Ended June 30, 1997

         Revenues for the quarter  ended June 30, 1998 were  $14,400,000,  which
represents an 18.1% increase over revenues of $12,194,000  for the quarter ended
June 30,  1997.  The  Company  has  transitioned  from  primarily  a  seller  of
containers  and  other  structures,  to  primarily  a lessor of  containers  and
portable  offices.  A change in the  composition  of the Company's  revenues and
expense have occurred as the Company has continued to expand and concentrate its
efforts on leasing operations  generating higher operating margins.  This change
has  resulted in a deferral of the  recognition  of revenues  and  corresponding
container costs over the term of the leases.  As such, income from operations as
a percentage of revenues increased 39.8% over the same period of the prior year.
Revenues  from the  leasing of  portable  storage  containers  and office  units
increased  45.7%,  while  revenues  from  the  sales of the  Company's  products
decreased 2.0%. The increase in lease revenues resulted from a 45.0% increase in
the average  number of containers on lease as compared to the same period in the
prior year in addition to an increase to the average  rental rate per unit.  The
Company's  new  leasing  locations  in  Nevada,  Oklahoma  and New  Mexico  also
contributed  to a portion  of this  growth.  The  decrease  in  container  sales
primarily  reflects  the  Company's  continued  emphasis on leasing  rather than
selling containers and lower sales levels in the Company's dealer division.

         Cost of  container  and other sales as a percentage  of  container  and
other sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 was 75.1%  compared to 73.7% for
the same quarter in 1997. This increase  primarily resulted from the sale during
1998 of certain  low-margin  modular  buildings that were previously under lease
agreements.  With this sale  complete,  the Company owns no  additional  modular
buildings.

         Leasing,  selling  and  general  expenses  increased  by 24.1%  for the
quarter ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1997. As a
percentage of revenues,  leasing,  selling and general  expenses for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998 was 43.2% as compared to 41.1% for the same quarter in 1997.
This increase  resulted from higher costs  associated with the 45.7% increase in
lease revenues and additional  administrative costs to accommodate the increased
growth.

         Interest  expense  increased by 16.4% during the second  quarter  ended
June 30,  1998  compared  to the  prior  year  period.  This  resulted  from the
substantial  growth in the Company's  lease fleet and the related  borrowings to
finance  that growth,  in addition to interest  costs  related to the  Company's
subordinated debt which was issued in October 1997,  partially offset by reduced
interest rates associated with the Company's amended revolving line of credit.

         Depreciation and  amortization  increased by 32.8% for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the prior year period. This resulted from the
substantial  increase  in the  Company's  lease  fleet and from the  addition of
equipment at the Company's  various  locations to support  growth in the size of
the lease fleet.

         The Company posted a 81.7% increase in net income to $946,000, or $0.11
per share diluted for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, compared to net income of
$521,000  or $0.08 per share  diluted  during the same period in the prior year.
This  increase is primarily a result of a 45.7%  increase in  container  leasing
revenues,  which  produce  higher net margins than  container  sales,  partially
offset by higher  administrative  expenses and  increased  interest  costs.  The
Company's effective tax rate was reduced to 40.0% at June 30, 1998 from 44.0% at
June 30,  1997.  Diluted  earnings  per share  includes a 25.5%  increase in the
weighted average number of common and common share equivalents  outstanding when
compared to the same period in the prior year.

                   Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to
                         Six Months Ended June 30, 1997

         Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1998 were $25,147,000, which
represents a 15.1%  increase  over  revenues of  $21,843,000  for the six months
ended June 30, 1997.  Revenues from the leasing of portable  storage  containers
and office units increased 47.9% during the first six months of 1998 as compared
to the same  period in 1997,  while  revenues  from the  sales of the  Company's
products  decreased 14.3%.  The increase in lease revenues  resulted from a 4.2%
increase in the average per unit  container  revenue and a 41.9% increase in the
average  number of  containers  on lease as  compared  to the same period in the
prior year.  The  Company's  new leasing  locations in Nevada,  Oklahoma and New
Mexico also  contributed to a portion of this growth.  The decrease of container
sales primarily  reflects the emphasis on leasing rather than selling containers
and from lower sales levels in the  Company's  dealer  division.  The  Company's
other revenues decreased $260,000 in the first six months of 1998 or compared to
the same period in 1997.

         Cost of  container  and other sales as a percentage  of  container  and
other sales for the six months  ended June 30, 1998 was 72.9%  compared to 74.6%
for the same period in 1997.

         Leasing,  selling and general  expenses  increased by 26.8% for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. As
a percentage  of  revenues,  leasing,  selling and general  expenses for the six
months  ended June 30,  1998 was 46.9% as  compared  to 42.5% for the six months
ended June 30, 1997. This increase resulted from increased  expenses  associated
with the 47.9%  increase in lease  revenues and from  additional  administrative
costs to handle this increased growth.

         Interest  expense  increased  by 26.3% during the six months ended June
30, 1998 compared to the prior year period.  This resulted from the  substantial
growth in the Company's  lease fleet and the related  borrowings to finance that
growth, in addition to interest costs related to the Company's subordinated debt
which was issued in October 1997,  partially  offset by reduced  interest  rates
associated with the Company's amended revolving line of credit.

         Depreciation  and  amortization  increased  by 36.8% for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the prior year period.  This results from the
increase in the Company's  lease fleet and from the addition of equipment at the
Company's various locations to support this growth.

         The Company posted a 104.7%  increase in net income to  $1,479,000,  or
$0.18 per share  diluted for the six months ended June 30, 1998  compared to net
income of  $723,000  or $0.11 per share  diluted  during the same  period in the
prior year.  This increase is primarily a result of an increase in the container
leasing  revenues,  which  produce  higher net  margins  than  container  sales,
partially offset by higher administrative expenses and increased interest costs.
Diluted  earnings per share  includes a 23.0%  increase in the weighted  average
number of common and common share  equivalents  outstanding when compared to the
same period in the prior year.  The Company's  effective tax rate was reduced to
40.0% at June 30, 1998 from 44.0% at June 30, 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company  plans to continue  to increase  the size of its  container
lease fleet and related property,  plant and equipment.  The recent acquisitions
of Nevada  Storage  Containers  and Aspen Instant  Storage and the growth in the
container  lease fleet and related  property,  plant and equipment was primarily
funded through the Company's  revolving line of credit,  under its Senior Credit
Agreement dated March 28, 1996, as amended,  with BT Commercial  Corp., as agent
for a group of lenders (the "Senior Credit  Agreement") which permits borrowings
based on the level of the Company's inventories, receivables and the size of its
container  lease fleet.  The $5.2 million of cash generated from the exercise of
the Company's  Common Stock  Purchase  Warrants was used to reduce the revolving
line of credit thereby making these funds available to finance this growth.
                                       10
<PAGE>
         On May 12, 1998,  the Company and its lenders  amended the terms of the
Senior Credit  Agreement.  The revolving  line of credit was increased  from $40
million to $60 million, principal amortization on the $6 million term loan under
the Senior Credit Agreement was reduced, the term of the Senior Credit Agreement
was extended for an additional two years, and the interest rate was reduced. The
interest rate is now determined quarterly based on the Company's ratio of funded
debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA).
The interest rate was initially  adjusted from 3% to 1.75% above the  Eurodollar
rate based upon the  Company's  leverage  ratio at the time the amendment to the
Senior Credit Agreement became effective.  This rate remains unchanged as of the
period ended June 30, 1998.

         As of June 30, 1998, the Company had borrowings  outstanding  under the
revolving line of credit of $42,365,000. These borrowings allowed the Company to
increase the  container  lease fleet by  $11,263,000,  acquire the assets of two
companies  (Nevada Storage  Containers and Aspen Instant Storage) and open a new
leasing  location  in  Albuquerque,  New  Mexico.  A portion of the lease  fleet
increase includes the acquisitions.  At June 30, 1998,  $9,781,000 of additional
borrowings  were available  under the revolving line of credit.  As of August 7,
1998,  the Company had borrowings  outstanding of $44,994,000  and $9,526,000 of
additional borrowing availability under the revolving line of credit.

         During the six months ended June 30,  1998,  the  Company's  operations
provided cash of $1,586,000.  This results from earnings before taxes, which are
deferred, a continuing emphasis on increasing credit and extending payment terms
with  major  suppliers,   increased  collection  effort  to  reduce  outstanding
receivables and the cash sale of the Company's modular buildings inventory. This
was  partially  offset by an increase in  inventory,  and  accounts  receivables
related to the  expansion  of the  Company's  business  and an increase in other
assets as well as a decrease in accrued liabilities.

         The Company invested $11,201,000 in its container lease fleet and other
equipment  during the six  months  ended June 30,  1998.  This  amount is net of
$1,130,000 of sales from the container lease fleet.

         Cash flow provided by financing  activities  totaled $9,226,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1998. The primary source of financing was  $6,482,000,
of net borrowings on the Company's  revolving  line of credit and  approximately
$5,200,000  received upon the exercise of warrants to purchase  1,046,212 shares
of the  Company's  common stock prior to their  expiration on February 17, 1998.
The warrants had been issued in  connection  with the Company's  initial  public
offering in 1994. The warrant proceeds were used to initially reduce the line of
credit and to fund the increase in the container lease fleet,  related property,
plant and equipment,  inventory  levels,  and the  acquisition of Nevada Storage
Containers and Aspen Instant  Storage.  Cash flow from financing  activities was
partially offset by principal  payments on notes payable and capitalized  leases
and the payoff on capitalized  leases  related to the sale of modular  buildings
previously under lease agreements.

         The Company believes that its available resources will be sufficient to
maintain its current level of operations  and permit  continued  growth over the
next 12 months.  The Company expects to use a wide variety of financing  sources
to fund its future  growth,  including  public and private debt and equity,  and
secured or  unsecured  bank  financing,  among  other  sources.  There can be no
assurances that financing from such sources will be available in the future,  or
if available that such  financing  will be available on terms  acceptable to the
Company.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

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

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS, AND "SAFE HARBOR" STATEMENT
UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

         Statements  in this  Report  which  include  such  words as  "believe",
"intends"  or  "anticipates",  such as the  statement  regarding  the  Company's
ability to meet its obligations and capital needs during the next 12 
                                       11

months,  are  forward-looking   statements.   The  occurrence  of  one  or  more
unanticipated events, however,  including a decrease in cash flow generated from
operations,  a material  increase in the borrowing rates under the Senior Credit
Agreement  (which rates are based on the prime rate or the  Eurodollar  rates in
effect from time to time), a material  increase or decrease in prevailing market
prices for used containers, or a change in general economic conditions resulting
in decreased  demand for the Company's  products,  could cause actual results to
differ materially from anticipated results and have a material adverse effect on
the  Company's  ability to meet its  obligations  and capital  needs,  and cause
future operating results and other events not to occur as presently anticipated.
The Company issued $6.9 million of senior subordinated notes in October 1997, in
a public  offering  pursuant  to a  Registration  Statement.  That  Registration
Statement and the Prospectus,  dated October 8, 1997, which is a part of it (the
"Prospectus"),  include a  section  entitled  "Risk  Factors",  which  describes
certain factors that may affect future  operating  results of the Company.  That
section is hereby incorporated by reference in this Report. Those factors should
be considered  carefully in  evaluating  an  investment in the Company's  Common
Stock.  If you do not  have a copy  of the  Prospectus,  you may  obtain  one by
requesting it from the Company's Investor Relations Department at (602) 894-6311
or by mail at Mobile Mini, Inc., 1834 West Third Street,  Tempe,  Arizona 85281.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

         The Company has upgraded its primary  system  using  software  that has
been  certified  by  the  vendor  to be  fully  compliant  with  the  Year  2000
transactions.  The  Company  is  continuing  to  test  this  software  for  such
compliance  in addition  to all of the other  Company  systems.  The Company has
identified the critical areas that require Year 2000 compliance and continues to
evaluate these issues related to the business operations.  Contingency plans are
being established  where the Company is dependent on outside service  providers.
The majority of this project is being  handled by currently  employed  personnel
and the Company, at this time, does not  anticipate  any material  impact to its
financial  condition  or results of  operations  to become Year 2000  compliant.
However, because of the numerous variables and uncertainties associated with the
Year 2000  compliance,  including the effect on the Company of non compliance by
third  parties,  availability  of certain  resources and  assumptions  of future
events,  there can be no guarantee that our operations will not be materially or
adversely affected by Year 2000 compliance problems. While the contingency plans
are  intended  to  minimize  any  negative  impacts  on Mobile  Mini by  outside
providers,  there can be no assurance that the plans will be successful and that
any such  disruptions  will not have a material  adverse effect to its financial
condition or results of operations.
