(unaudited)

(1) The condensed statements included herein have been prepared by the registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent with the annual audited statements. The adjustments made to these condensed statements consist only of normal recurring adjustments. Certain information, accounting policies, and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the summary of significant accounting policies and notes thereto included in the registrant’s latest annual report on Form 10K.

(2) Organization –

AEI Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC (“Company”), a Limited Liability Company, was formed on November 21, 2000 to acquire and lease commercial properties to operating tenants. The Company's operations are managed by AEI Fund Management XXI, Inc. (“AFM”), the Managing Member. Robert P. Johnson, the Chief Executive Officer and sole director of AFM served as the Special Managing Member until his withdrawal date effective March 31, 2020. AFM is a wholly owned subsidiary of AEI Capital Corporation of which Mr. Johnson and his wife own a majority interest. AEI Fund Management, Inc. (“AEI”), an affiliate of AFM, performs the administrative and operating functions for the Company.

The terms of the offering called for a subscription price of $1,000 per LLC Unit, payable on acceptance of the offer. The Company commenced operations on October 31, 2001 when minimum subscriptions of 1,500 LLC Units ($1,500,000) were accepted. The offering terminated May 17, 2003 when the extended offering period ended. The Company received subscriptions for 24,831.283 Units. Under the terms of the Operating Agreement, the Limited Members and Managing Members contributed funds of $24,831,283 and $1,000, respectively. The Company shall continue until December 31, 2051, unless dissolved, terminated and liquidated prior to that date.

During operations, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which the Managing Members determine to distribute will be distributed 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members. Distributions to Limited Members will be made pro rata by Units.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(2) Organization – (Continued)

Any Net Proceeds of Sale, as defined, from the sale or financing of properties which the Managing Members determine to distribute will, after provisions for debts and reserves, be paid in the following manner: (i) first, 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members until the Limited Members receive an amount equal to: (a) their Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an amount equal to 7% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously distributed from Net Cash Flow; (ii) any remaining balance will be distributed 90% to the Limited Members and 10% to the Managing Members. Distributions to the Limited Members will be made pro rata by Units.

For tax purposes, profits from operations, other than profits attributable to the sale, exchange, financing, refinancing or other disposition of property, will be allocated 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members. Net losses from operations will be allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members.

For tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing, or other disposition of property will be allocated in accordance with the Operating Agreement as follows: (i) first, to those Members with deficit balances in their capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum of such deficit balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members until the aggregate balance in the Limited Members' capital accounts equals the sum of the Limited Members' Adjusted Capital Contributions plus an amount equal to 7% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously allocated; (iii) third, the balance of any remaining gain will then be allocated 90% to the Limited Members and 10% to the Managing Members. Losses will be allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members.

The Managing Members are not required to currently fund a deficit capital balance. Upon liquidation of the Company or withdrawal by a Managing Member, the Managing Members will contribute to the Company an amount equal to the lesser of the deficit balances in their capital accounts or 1.01% of the total capital contributions of the Limited Members over the amount previously contributed by the Managing Members.

In January 2018, the Managing Member mailed a Consent Statement (Proxy) seeking the consent of the Limited Members, as required by Section 6.1 of the Operating Agreement, to initiate the final disposition, liquidation and distribution of all of the Company’s properties and assets within the next 12 to 24 months. On February 12, 2018, the proposal was approved with a majority of Units voting in favor of the proposal. As a result, the Managing Member is proceeding with the planned liquidation of the Company.

(3) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements –

Management has reviewed recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not expect the implementation of these pronouncements to have a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements.

AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 24 LLC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(4) Real Estate Investments –

In July 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with the tenant of the Best Buy store in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin to extend the lease term five years to end on March 31, 2024. As part of the agreement, the annual rent decreased from $153,826 to $133,316 effective February 1, 2019. In addition, beginning on February 1, 2019, the tenant received free rent for one month that equaled $11,110.

The Company owned a 35% interest in a Dick’s Sporting Goods store in Fredericksburg, Virginia. The remaining interests in the property were owned by three affiliates of the Company. On January 31, 2019, the lease term ended, and the tenant returned possession of the property to the owners. While the property was vacant, the Company was responsible for its 35% share of real estate taxes and other costs associated with maintaining the property. The owners listed the property for lease with a real estate broker in the Fredericksburg area. The annual rent from this property represented approximately 21% of the total annual rent of the Company’s property portfolio. The loss of rent and increased expenses related to this property decreased the Company’s cash flow. Consequently, beginning with the first quarter of 2019, the Company reduced its regular quarterly cash distribution rate from $12.66 per Unit to $10.12 per Unit.

Based on its long-lived asset valuation analysis, the Company determined the former Dick’s Sporting Goods store was impaired. As a result, in the first quarter of 2019, the Company recognized real estate impairment of $792,845 to decrease the carrying value to the estimated fair value of $1,260,000. The charge was recorded against the cost of the land and building.

In June 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with the tenant of the Tractor Supply Company store in Grand Forks, North Dakota to extend the lease term ten years to end on November 30, 2030. The annual rent remained the same with a 4.0% increase scheduled to occur after five years. As part of the agreement, the Company paid a tenant improvement allowance of $30,000 that was capitalized.

In June 2019, the Company reached an agreement to sell its 50% interest in the Tractor Supply Company store to an unrelated third party. On August 1, 2019, the sale closed with the Company receiving net proceeds of $1,738,496, which resulted in a net gain of $885,311. At the time of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $1,433,934 and $580,749, respectively.

In June 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Applebee’s restaurant in Fishers, Indiana to an unrelated third party. On September 27, 2019, the sale closed with the Company receiving net proceeds of $2,887,288, which resulted in a net gain of $804,805. At the time of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $3,002,553 and $920,070, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(4) Real Estate Investments – (Continued)

The Company owns a 45% interest in an Advance Auto Parts store in Middletown, Ohio. The remaining interest in the property is owned by an affiliate of the Company. On July 31, 2019, the lease term ended, and the tenant returned possession of the property to the owners. While the property is vacant, the Company is responsible for its 45% share of real estate taxes and other costs associated with maintaining the property. The owners have listed the property for sale or lease with a real estate broker in the Middletown area. The annual rent from this property represented approximately 6% of the total annual rent of the Company’s property portfolio. The loss of rent and increased expenses related to this property will decrease the Company’s cash flow. However, at this time, the Company does not anticipate the need to further reduce its regular quarterly cash distribution rate.

On January 17, 2020, the Company sold its 27% interest in the PetSmart store in Gonzales, Louisiana to AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC, an affiliate of the Company. The purchase price of the property interest was based upon the property’s fair market value as determined by an independent, third-party, commercial property appraiser. The Company received net proceeds of $823,558, which resulted in a net gain of $251,516. At the time of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization was $842,400 and $270,358, respectively. At December 31, 2019, the property was classified as Real Estate Held for Sale with a carrying value of $572,042.

(5) Payable to AEI Fund Management, Inc. –

AEI Fund Management, Inc. performs the administrative and operating functions for the Company. The payable to AEI Fund Management represents the balance due for those services. This balance is non-interest bearing and unsecured and is to be paid in the normal course of business.

(6) Members’ Equity –

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company declared distributions of $327,284 and $489,486, respectively. The Limited Members received distributions of $320,698 and $474,802 and the Managing Members received distributions of $6,586 and $14,684 for the periods, respectively. The Limited Members' distributions represented $13.69 and $20.24 per LLC Unit outstanding using 23,423 and 23,454 weighted average Units in 2020 and 2019, respectively. The distributions represented $12.37 and $0.00 per Unit of Net Income and $1.32 and $20.24 per Unit of return of contributed capital in 2020 and 2019, respectively.

As part of the distributions discussed above, the Company distributed net sale proceeds of $161,616 in 2020. The Limited Members received distributions of $160,000 and the Managing Members received distributions of $1,616. The Limited Members’ distributions represented $6.84 per Unit.

AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 24 LLC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(6) Members’ Equity – (Continued)

On April 1, 2020, the Company did not repurchase any Units from the Limited Members. On April 1, 2019, the Company repurchased a total of 12.00 Units for $6,714 from two Limited Members in accordance with the Operating Agreement. The Company acquired these Units using Net Cash Flow from operations. The repurchases increase the remaining Limited Members’ ownership interest in the Company. As a result of these repurchases and pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Managing Members received distributions of $208 in 2019.

(7) Fair Value Measurements –

Fair value, as defined by US GAAP, is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market. US GAAP establishes a hierarchy in determining the fair value of an asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable. US GAAP requires the utilization of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value. Level 1 inputs include quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are market data, other than Level 1 inputs, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in an inactive market, and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable and corroborated by little or no market data.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had no financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis or nonrecurring basis that would require disclosure. The Company had the following nonfinancial assets measured on a nonrecurring basis that were recorded at fair value during 2019.

The Dick’s Sporting Goods store in Fredericksburg, Virginia with a carrying amount of $2,052,845 at March 31, 2019, was written down to its estimated fair value of $1,260,000 after completing our long-lived asset valuation analysis. The resulting impairment charge of $792,845 was included in earnings for the first quarter of 2019. The fair value of the property was based upon an appraisal prepared by an independent commercial property appraiser. The appraisal is considered a Level 3 input in the valuation hierarchy.

The Advance Auto store in Middletown, Ohio with a carrying amount of $446,497 at June 30, 2019, was written down to its estimated fair value of $146,250 after completing our long-lived asset valuation analysis. The resulting impairment charge of $300,247 was included in earnings for the second quarter of 2019. The fair value of the property was based upon comparable sales of similar properties, which are considered Level 2 inputs in the valuation hierarchy.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(8) Coronavirus Outbreak –

During the first quarter of 2020, there was a global outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus, COVID-19 which continues to adversely impact global commercial activity and has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving, and as cases of the virus have continued to be identified in additional countries, many countries have reacted by instituting quarantines, placing restrictions on travel, and limiting hours of operations of non-essential offices and retail centers. Such actions are creating disruption in global supply chains, and adversely impacting a number of industries, such as retail, restaurants and transportation. The outbreak could have a continued adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of the coronavirus. Nevertheless, the coronavirus presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company’s performance and financial results, such as the potential negative impact to the tenants of its properties, the potential closure of certain of its properties, increased costs of operations, decrease in values of its properties, changes in law and/or regulation, and uncertainty regarding government and regulatory policy. Up to the date of this filing, the Company has not received modification rent requests from any tenant of the five properties owned by the Company. All rent has been paid in full by each tenant.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

This section contains "forward-looking statements" which represent management's expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including statements regarding anticipated application of cash, expected returns from rental income, growth in revenue, the sufficiency of cash to meet operating expenses, rates of distribution, and other matters. These, and other forward-looking statements, should be evaluated in the context of a number of factors that may affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, including the following:

—

Market and economic conditions which affect the value of the properties the Company owns and the cash from rental income such properties generate;

—

the federal income tax consequences of rental income, deductions, gain on sales and other items and the effects of these consequences for Members;

—

resolution by the Managing Members of conflicts with which they may be confronted;

—

the success of the Managing Members of locating properties with favorable risk return characteristics;

—

the effect of tenant defaults; and

—

the condition of the industries in which the tenants of properties owned by the Company operate.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Preparing the financial statements requires management to use judgment in the application of these accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments will affect the reported amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and will affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. It is possible that the carrying amount of the Company’s assets and liabilities, or the results of reported operations, will be affected if management’s estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate.

Management of the Company evaluates the following accounting estimates on an ongoing basis, and has discussed the development and selection of these estimates and the management discussion and analysis disclosures regarding them with the managing member of the Company.

Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Properties

Upon acquisition of real properties, the Company records them in the financial statements at cost. The purchase price is allocated to tangible assets, consisting of land and building, and to identified intangible assets and liabilities, which may include the value of above market and below market leases and the value of in-place leases. The allocation of the purchase price is based upon the fair value of each component of the property. Although independent appraisals may be used to assist in the determination of fair value, in many cases these values will be based upon management’s assessment of each property, the selling prices of comparable properties and the discounted value of cash flows from the asset.

The fair values of above market and below market in-place leases will be recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) an estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases measured over a period equal to the non-cancelable term of the lease including any bargain renewal periods. The above market and below market lease values will be capitalized as intangible lease assets or liabilities. Above market lease values will be amortized as an adjustment of rental income over the remaining term of the respective leases. Below market lease values will be amortized as an adjustment of rental income over the remaining term of the respective leases, including any bargain renewal periods. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts of above market and below market in-place lease values relating to that lease would be recorded as an adjustment to rental income.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)

The fair values of in-place leases will include estimated direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, and opportunity costs associated with lost rentals which are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant may include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated, in part, by management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct costs will be included in intangible lease assets on the balance sheet and will be amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs will be calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. These intangibles will be included in intangible lease assets on the balance sheet and will be amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts of in-place lease assets relating to that lease would be expensed.

The determination of the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired will require the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current market rental rates, rental growth rates, discount and capitalization rates, interest rates and other variables. If management’s estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate, the result would be an inaccurate allocation of purchase price, which could impact the amount of reported net income.

Carrying Value of Properties

Properties are carried at original cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company tests long-lived assets for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. For properties the Company will hold and operate, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property’s probability-weighted future undiscounted cash flows to its current carrying value. For properties held for sale, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property’s estimated fair value less cost to sell to its current carrying value. If the carrying value is greater than the net realizable value, an impairment loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its net realizable value. Changes in these assumptions or analysis may cause material changes in the carrying value of the properties.

Allocation of Expenses

AEI Fund Management, Inc. allocates expenses to each of the funds they manage primarily on the basis of the number of hours devoted by their employees to each fund’s affairs. They also allocate expenses at the end of each month that are not directly related to a fund’s operations based upon the number of investors in the fund and the fund’s capitalization relative to other funds they manage. The Company reimburses these expenses subject to detailed limitations contained in the Operating Agreement.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)

Factors Which May Influence Results of Operations

The Company is not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, that may reasonably be expected to have a material impact, favorable or unfavorable, on revenues and investment property value. However, due to the recent outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in the U.S. and globally, our tenants and operating partners may be impacted. The impact of the coronavirus on our future results could be significant and will largely depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus, the success of actions taken to contain or treat the coronavirus, and reactions by consumers, companies, governmental entities and capital markets.

Results of Operations

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized rental income of $211,987 and $558,464, respectively. In 2020, rental income decreased due to the sale of five properties and the lease terms ending for the Advance Auto store as discussed below. The decreases were partially offset by one month free rent in 2019 for the Best Buy store in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin as discussed below. Based on the scheduled rent for the properties owned as of July 31, 2020, the Company expects to recognize rental income of approximately $421,000 in 2020.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred LLC administration expenses from affiliated parties of $32,779 and $52,873, respectively. These administration expenses include costs associated with the management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting requirements and communicating with the Limited Members. During the same periods, the Company incurred LLC administration and property management expenses from unrelated parties of $37,884 and $63,052, respectively. These expenses represent direct payments to third parties for legal and filing fees, direct administrative costs, outside audit costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs. These expenses were higher in 2019, when compared to 2020, mainly due to expenses related to the Dick’s Sporting Goods store and a parking lot repair at one property.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)

Based on its long-lived asset valuation analysis, the Company determined the Advance Auto store was impaired. As a result, in the second quarter of 2019, a charge to operations for real estate impairment of $300,247 was recognized, which was the difference between the carrying value at June 30, 2019 of $446,497 and the estimated fair value of $146,250. The charge was recorded against the cost of the land and building.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized interest income of $4,226 and $7,525, respectively.

Management believes inflation has not significantly affected income from operations. Leases may contain rent increases, based on the increase in the Consumer Price Index over a specified period, which will result in an increase in rental income over the term of the leases. Inflation also may cause the real estate to appreciate in value. However, inflation and changing prices may have an adverse impact on the operating margins of the properties' tenants, which could impair their ability to pay rent and subsequently reduce the Net Cash Flow available for distributions.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company's cash balances decreased $6,982,078 as a result of distributions paid to the Members in excess of cash generated from operating activities, which was partially offset by cash generated from the sale of property. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company's cash balances decreased $113,258 as a result of cash paid for a tenant improvement allowance, and distributions paid to the Members and cash used to repurchase Units in excess of cash generated from operating activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased from $474,594 in 2019 to $176,062 in 2020 as a result of a decrease in total rental and interest income in 2020, which was partially offset by a decrease in LLC administration and property management expenses in 2020 and net timing differences in the collection of payments from the tenants and the payment of expenses.

The major components of the Company's cash flow from investing activities are investments in real estate and proceeds from the sale of real estate. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company generated cash flow from the sale of real estate of $823,558. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company expended $30,000 to invest in real properties.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)

The Company's primary use of cash flow, other than investment in real estate, is distribution payments to Members and cash used to repurchase Units. The Company declares its regular quarterly distributions before the end of each quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end of each quarter. The Company attempts to maintain a stable distribution rate from quarter to quarter. The Company may repurchase tendered Units on April 1st and October 1st of each year subject to limitations.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company declared distributions of $327,284 and $489,486, respectively. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, distributions of Net Cash Flow were allocated 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members. Distributions of Net Proceeds of Sale were allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members. The Limited Members received distributions of $320,698 and $474,802 and the Managing Members received distributions of $6,586 and $14,684 for the periods, respectively. In December 2019, the Company declared a special distribution of net sale proceeds of $7,575,758 which was paid in the first week of January 2020 and resulted in higher distributions declared in 2019 and a higher distributions payable at December 31, 2019.

As part of the declared distributions discussed above, the Company distributed net sale proceeds of $161,616 in 2020. The Limited Members received distributions of $160,000 and the Managing Members received distributions of $1,616. The Limited Members’ distributions represented $6.84 per Unit.

The Company may repurchase Units from Limited Members who have tendered their Units to the Company. Such Units may be acquired at a discount. The Company will not be obligated to purchase in any year any number of Units that, when aggregated with all other transfers of Units that have occurred since the beginning of the same calendar year (excluding Permitted Transfers as defined in the Operating Agreement), would exceed 2% of the total number of Units outstanding on January 1 of such year. In no event shall the Company be obligated to purchase Units if, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, such purchase would impair the capital or operation of the Company.

The continuing rent payments from the properties, together with cash generated from property sales, should be adequate to fund continuing distributions and meet other Company obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.
