PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC (the "Company" or the
"Registrant") is a limited liability company which was organized
pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware on June 24, 2002.
The registrant is comprised of AEI Fund Management XXI, Inc.
("AFM"), as the Managing Member, Robert P. Johnson, the President
and sole director of AFM, as the Special Managing Member, and
purchasers of LLC Units as Limited Members. The Company offered
for sale up to $50,000,000 of limited membership interests (the
"Units") (50,000 Units at $1,000 per Unit) pursuant to a
registration statement effective May 13, 2003. The Company
commenced operations on September 11, 2003 when minimum
subscriptions of 1,500 LLC Units ($1,500,000) were accepted. The
offering terminated May 12, 2005 when the extended offering
period expired. The Company received subscriptions for
42,434.763 LLC Units. Under the terms of the Operating
Agreement, the Limited Members and Managing Members contributed
funds of $42,434,763 and $1,000, respectively.
The Company was organized to acquire existing and newly
constructed commercial properties, to lease such properties to
tenants under net leases, to hold such properties and to
eventually sell such properties. From subscription proceeds, the
Company purchased fifteen properties, including partial interests
in eight properties, at a total cost of $36,389,018. The balance
of the subscription proceeds was applied to organization and
syndication costs. The properties are commercial, single tenant
buildings leased under net leases.
The Company's properties were purchased without any
indebtedness. The Company will not finance properties in the
future to obtain proceeds for new property acquisitions. If it
is required to do so, the Company may incur short-term
indebtedness to finance day-to-day cash flow requirements
(including cash flow necessary to repurchase Units). The Company
may borrow to finance the refurbishing of a property.
The Company will hold its properties until the Managing
Members determine that the sale or other disposition of the
properties is advantageous in view of the Company's investment
objectives. In deciding whether to sell properties, the Managing
Members will consider factors such as potential appreciation, net
cash flow and income tax considerations. The Company expects to
sell some or all of its properties prior to its final liquidation
and to reinvest the proceeds from such sales in additional
properties. The Company reserves the right, at the discretion of
the Managing Members, to either distribute proceeds from the sale
of properties to the Members or to reinvest such proceeds in
additional properties, provided that sufficient proceeds are
distributed to the Limited Members to pay federal and state
income taxes related to any taxable gain recognized as a result
of the sale. It is anticipated that the Company will commence
liquidation through the sale of its remaining properties eight to
twelve years after completion of the acquisition phase, depending
upon the then current real estate and money markets, the economic
climate and the income tax consequences to the Members.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS. (Continued)
Leases
Although there are variations in the specific terms of the
leases, the following is a summary of the general terms of the
Company's leases. The properties are leased to various tenants
under net leases, classified as operating leases. Under a net
lease, the tenant is responsible for real estate taxes,
insurance, maintenance, repairs and operating expenses for the
property. For some leases, the Company is responsible for
repairs to the structural components of the building, the roof,
and the parking lot. At the time the properties were acquired,
the remaining primary lease terms varied from 10 to 20 years.
The leases provide the tenants with two to four five-year renewal
options subject to the same terms and conditions as the primary
term. The leases provide for base annual rental payments,
payable in monthly installments, and contain rent clauses which
entitle the Company to receive additional rent in future years
based on stated rent increases.
Property Activity During the Last Three Years
As of December 31, 2007, the Company owned interests in
fourteen properties with a total original cost of $35,090,210.
During the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, the
Company sold partial interests in one property and received net
sale proceeds of $191,947, $555,272 and $1,571,988, which
resulted in net gains of $47,438, $114,685, and $218,688,
respectively. During 2007 and 2008, the Company expended
$4,050,434 to purchase one additional property as it reinvested
cash generated from property sales. On March 12, 2008, the
Company sold a partial interest in this property at its cost to
an affiliated fund for $923,833. After the sale, the Company's
investment in this property was $3,126,601. During 2010, the
Company expended $771,868 to purchase one additional property as
it reinvested cash generated from property sales. As of
December 31, 2010, the Company owned interests in fifteen
properties with a total original cost of $34,886,661.
Major Tenants
During 2010, four tenants each contributed more than ten
percent of the Company's total rental revenue. The major tenants
in aggregate contributed 71% of total rental revenue in 2010. It
is anticipated that, based on minimum rental payments required
under the leases, each major tenant will continue to contribute
more than ten percent of rental revenue in 2011 and future years.
Any failure of these major tenants could materially affect the
Company's net income and cash distributions.
Competition
The Company is a minor factor in the commercial real
estate business. There are numerous entities engaged in the
commercial real estate business which have greater financial
resources than the Company. At the time the Company elects to
dispose of its properties, it will be in competition with other
persons and entities to find buyers for its properties.
Employees
The Company has no direct employees. Management services
are performed for the Company by AEI Fund Management, Inc., an
affiliate of AFM.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
Investment Objectives
The Company's investment objectives are to acquire
existing or newly-developed commercial properties that provide
(i) regular rental income; (ii) growth in lease income through
rent escalation provisions; (iii) capital growth through
appreciation in the value of properties; (iv) reduced occupancy
risks as a result of long-term leases with creditworthy corporate
tenants; and (v) passive income that may be offset by eligible
passive losses from other investments for tax purposes. The
Company does not have a policy, and there is no limitation, as to
the amount or percentage of assets that may be invested in any
one property. However, to the extent possible, the Managing
Members attempt to diversify the type and location of the
properties.
Description of Properties
The Company's properties are commercial, single tenant
buildings. The properties were acquired on a debt-free basis and
are leased to various tenants under net leases, classified as
operating leases. The Company holds an undivided fee simple
interest in the properties.
The Company's properties are subject to the general
competitive conditions incident to the ownership of single tenant
investment real estate. Since each property is leased under a
long-term lease, there is little competition until the Company
decides to sell the property. At this time, the Company will be
competing with other real estate owners, on both a national and
local level, in attempting to find buyers for the properties. In
the event of a tenant default, the Company would be competing
with other real estate owners, who have property vacancies, to
attract a new tenant to lease the property. The Company's
tenants operate in industries that are very competitive and can
be affected by factors such as changes in regional or local
economies, seasonality and changes in consumer preference.
The following table is a summary of the properties that
the Company acquired and owned as of December 31, 2010.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. (Continued)
The properties listed above with a partial ownership
percentage are owned with the following affiliated entities:
Johnny Carino's restaurant in Lake Charles, Louisiana (AEI
Private Net Lease Millennium Fund Limited Partnership); Jared
Jewelry store in Madison Heights, Michigan (AEI Income & Growth
Fund 23 LLC and AEI Accredited Investor Fund 2002 Limited
Partnership); Jared Jewelry store in Auburn Hills, Michigan (AEI
Income & Growth Fund XXI Limited Partnership); CarMax auto
superstore (AEI Income & Growth Fund XXI Limited Partnership, AEI
Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC and AEI Private Net Lease Millennium
Fund Limited Partnership); Sports Authority store (AEI Income &
Growth Fund 26 LLC); Advance Auto Parts store in Indianapolis,
Indiana (AEI Income & Growth Fund XXII Limited Partnership);
Dick's Sporting Goods store (AEI Income & Growth Fund 23 LLC, AEI
Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC and AEI Income & Growth Fund 26 LLC);
and Scott & White Clinic (AEI Net Lease Income & Growth Fund XX
Limited Partnership and AEI Income & Growth Fund XXI Limited
Partnership). The remaining interest in the Applebee's
restaurant is owned by unrelated third parties.
The Company accounts for properties owned as tenants-in-
common with affiliated entities and/or unrelated third parties
using the proportionate consolidation method. Each tenant-in-
common owns a separate, undivided interest in the properties.
Any tenant-in-common that holds more than a 50% interest does not
control decisions over the other tenant-in-common interests. The
financial statements reflect only this Company's percentage share
of the properties' land, building and equipment, liabilities,
revenues and expenses.
At the time the properties were acquired, the remaining
primary lease terms varied from 10 to 20 years. The leases
provide the tenants with two to four five-year renewal options
subject to the same terms and conditions as the primary term.
Pursuant to the lease agreements, the tenants are required
to provide proof of adequate insurance coverage on the properties
they occupy. The Managing Members believe the properties are
adequately covered by insurance and consider the properties to be
well-maintained and sufficient for the Company's operations.
For tax purposes, the Company's properties are depreciated
under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS). The
largest depreciable component of a property is the building which
is depreciated, using the straight-line method, over 39 years.
The remaining depreciable components of a property are personal
property and land improvements which are depreciated, using an
accelerated method, over 5 and 15 years, respectively. Since the
Company has tax-exempt Members, the Company is subject to the
rules of Section 168(h)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code which
requires a percentage of the properties' depreciable components
to be depreciated over longer lives using the straight-line
method. In general, the federal tax basis of the properties for
tax depreciation purposes is the same as the basis for book
depreciation purposes, except for properties purchased after
January 1, 2009. For those properties, acquisition expenses that
were expensed for book purposes were capitalized and added to the
basis of the property for tax depreciation purposes.
At December 31, 2010, all properties listed above were
100% occupied.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCK-
HOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.
(a) As of December 31, 2010, there were 1,141 holders of
record of the registrant's LLC Units. There is no other class of
security outstanding or authorized. The registrant's Units are
not a traded security in any market. During the period covered
by this report, the Company did not sell any equity securities
that are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
Cash distributions of $66,462 and $64,359 were made to the
Managing Members and $2,220,103 and $2,114,600 were made to the
Limited Members for 2010 and 2009, respectively. The
distributions were made on a quarterly basis and represent Net
Cash Flow, as defined, except as discussed below. These
distributions should not be compared with dividends paid on
capital stock by corporations.
As part of the Limited Members' distributions discussed
above, the Company distributed net sale proceeds of $105,700 and
$50,000 in 2010 and 2009, respectively.
(b) Not applicable.
(c) Pursuant to Section 7.7 of the Operating Agreement,
each Limited Member has the right to present Units to the Company
for purchase by submitting notice to the Managing Member during
January or July of each year. The purchase price of the Units is
equal to 80% of the net asset value per Unit, as of the first
business day of January or July of each year, as determined by
the Managing Member in accordance with the provisions of the
Operating Agreement. Units tendered to the Company during
January and July are redeemed on April 1st and October 1st,
respectively, of each year subject to the following limitations.
The Company will not be obligated to purchase in any year more
than 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. During the last three months of 2010, the Company did
not purchase any Units.

Other Information
The Company is required, pursuant to FINRA Rule 2810, to
disclose in each annual report distributed to Limited Members a
per Unit estimated value, the method by which it was developed
and the date of the data used to develop the estimated value. At
December 31, 2010, the Company's Units were valued at $814. This
value was the aggregate estimated value of the Company's assets
less the Company's liabilities, and less the value attributable
to the interest of the Managing Members, divided by the number of
Units outstanding. The Company's cash, receivables and
liabilities were valued at face value. Each of the Company's
properties were valued by dividing their annual rental income as
of December 1, 2010 by a capitalization rate the Managing Member
believed to be representative of the retail market for the sale
of each property. The resulting value for each property was
reviewed to determine that it also reflected circumstances that
may have been unique to each specific property. No independent
property appraisals were obtained. The valuations performed by
the Managing Member were estimates only, and were based on a
number of assumptions which may not be accurate or complete. In
addition, property values are subject to change and could decline
after the date of the valuations. Accordingly, this estimated
value, prepared by the Managing Member, should not be viewed as
the amount at which a Limited Member may be able to sell his
units, or the fair market value of the Company properties, nor
does it represent the amount of net proceeds Limited Members
would receive if the Company properties were sold and the
proceeds distributed in a liquidation of the Company.
ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.
Not required for a smaller reporting company.
ITEM 7. 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.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of the Company's financial statements
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and
expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities. Management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing
basis, including those related to the carrying value of
investments in real estate and the allocation by AEI Fund
Management, Inc. of expenses to the Company as opposed to other
funds they manage.
The Company purchases properties and records them in the
financial statements at cost (not including acquisition
expenses). 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.
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 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
Management of the Company has discussed the development
and selection of the above accounting estimates and the
management discussion and analysis disclosures regarding them
with the managing member of the Company.
Results of Operations
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the
Company recognized rental income from continuing operations of
$2,513,177 and $2,439,142, respectively. In 2010, rental income
increased mainly due to additional rent received from one
property acquisition in 2010 and rent increases on six
properties. Based on the scheduled rent for the properties owned
as of February 28, 2011, the Company expects to recognize rental
income from continuing operations of approximately $2,598,000 in
2011.
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the
Company incurred LLC administration expenses from affiliated
parties of $378,628 and $371,797, 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 $48,506
and $117,796, 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. The decrease in these expenses in 2010,
when compared to 2009, was mainly due to a one-time charge for
additional state income taxes paid in 2009.
For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company incurred
property acquisition expenses of $16,922 related to the purchase
of the Scott & White Clinic.
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009,
depreciation expense was $907,277 and $1,005,040, respectively.
In 2009, depreciation expense was higher as a result of
reclassifying the Sports Authority store in Wichita, Kansas from
held-for-sale status to held-for-use status during the fourth
quarter of 2009. At the time of reclassification, the Company
recognized $183,978 of additional depreciation expense that
represented the amount of depreciation that would have been
recognized if the property had not been classified as Real Estate
Held for Sale. This amount represented two years of depreciation
expense for the property.
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the
Company recognized interest income of $14,703 and $8,508,
respectively. In 2010 interest income increased due to the
Company having more money invested in a money market account due
to property sales.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
Upon complete disposal of a property or classification of
a property as Real Estate Held for Sale, the Company includes the
operating results and sale of the property in discontinued
operations. In addition, the Company reclassifies the prior
periods' operating results of the property to discontinued
operations. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company
recognized income from discontinued operations of $386,892
representing rental income less property management expenses of
$168,204 and gain on disposal of real estate of $218,688. For
the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company recognized income
from discontinued operations of $339,670 representing rental
income less property management expenses of $224,985 and gain on
disposal of real estate of $114,685.
During the second and third quarter of 2009, the Company
sold 15.329% of the Applebee's restaurant in Macedonia, Ohio, in
two separate transactions, to unrelated third parties. The
Company received total net sale proceeds of $555,272, which
resulted in a net gain of $114,685. The cost and related
accumulated depreciation of the interests sold was $480,533 and
$39,946, respectively.
During 2010, the Company sold an additional 47.0843% of
the Applebee's restaurant in Macedonia, Ohio, in six separate
transactions, to unrelated third parties. The Company received
total net sale proceeds of $1,571,988, which resulted in a net
gain of $218,688. The cost and related accumulated depreciation
of the interests sold was $1,475,997 and $122,697, respectively.
The Company is attempting to sell its remaining 32.5589% interest
in the property. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the property was
classified as Real Estate Held for Sale with a carrying value of
$935,815 and $2,289,115, 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.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company's
cash balances increased $799,072 as a result of cash generated
from the sale of property, which was partially offset by cash
used to purchase property, and distributions and redemption
payments paid to the Members in excess of cash generated from
operating activities. During the year ended December 31, 2009,
the Company's cash balances increased $601,933 as a result of
cash generated from the sale of property and cash generated from
operating activities in excess of distributions paid to the
Members.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased from
$2,225,822 in 2009 to $2,209,370 in 2010 as a result of $16,922
of acquisition expenses related to the purchase of real estate in
2010 and net timing differences in the collection of payments
from the tenants and the payment of expenses, which were
partially offset by an increase in total rental and interest
income in 2010 and a decrease in LLC administration and property
management expenses in 2010. Pursuant to new accounting
guidance, the acquisition expenses were reflected as operating
cash outflows. However, pursuant to the Company's Operating
Agreement, acquisition expenses were funded with proceeds from
property sales.
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 years ended
December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company generated cash flow from
the sale of real estate of $1,571,988 and $555,272, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company expended
$771,868 to invest in real properties as the Company reinvested
cash generated from property sales.
On October 20, 2010, the Company purchased a 21% interest
in a Scott & White Clinic in College Station, Texas for $771,868.
The property is leased to Scott & White Healthcare under a Lease
Agreement with a remaining primary term of 9.7 years (as of the
date of purchase) and initial annual rent of $64,680 for the
interest purchased. The remaining interests in the property were
purchased by AEI Net Lease Income & Growth Fund XX Limited
Partnership and AEI Income & Growth Fund XXI Limited Partnership,
affiliates of the Company.
The Company's primary use of cash flow, other than
investment in real estate, is distribution and redemption
payments to Members. 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. Redemption payments are paid to redeeming
Members on a semi-annual basis.
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the
Company declared distributions of $2,286,565 and $2,178,959,
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
$2,220,103 and $2,114,600 and the Managing Members received
distributions of $66,462 and $64,359 for the periods,
respectively. In December 2010, the Company declared a special
distribution of net sale proceeds of $106,768, which resulted in
higher distributions in 2010 and a higher distribution payable at
December 31, 2010.
During 2010 and 2009, the Company distributed $106,768 and
$50,505 of net sale proceeds to the Limited and Managing Members
as part of their quarterly distributions, which represented a
return of capital of $2.52 and $1.19 per LLC Unit, respectively.
The Company anticipates the remaining net sale proceeds will
either be reinvested in additional property or distributed to the
Members in the future.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
The Company may acquire 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 more than 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.
During 2010, two Limited Members redeemed a total of 46.92
Units for $29,702 in accordance with the Operating Agreement.
The Company acquired these Units using Net Cash Flow from
operations. During 2009, the Company did not redeem any Units
from the Limited Members. In prior years, eight Limited Members
redeemed a total of 415.48 Units for $305,680. The redemptions
increase the remaining Limited Members' ownership interest in the
Company. As a result of these redemption payments and pursuant
to the Operating Agreement, the Managing Members received
distributions of $918 in 2010.
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.
The Economy and Market Conditions
The impact of conditions in the current economy, including
the turmoil in the credit markets, has adversely affected many
real estate investment funds. However, the absence of mortgage
financing on the Company's properties eliminates the risks of
foreclosure and debt-refinancing that can negatively impact the
value and distributions of leveraged real estate investment
funds. Nevertheless, a prolonged economic downturn may adversely
affect the operations of the Company's tenants and their cash
flows. If a tenant were to default on its lease obligations, the
Company's income would decrease, its distributions would likely
be reduced and the value of its properties might decline.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Members:
AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC
St. Paul, Minnesota
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of AEI Income
& Growth Fund 25 LLC (a Delaware limited liability company) as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of income,
cash flows and changes in members' equity for the years then
ended. The Company's management is responsible for these
financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not
required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its
internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included
consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a
basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion
on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC as of December 31, 2010 and
2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009
(1) Organization -
AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC ("Company"), a Limited
Liability Company, was formed on June 24, 2002 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
President and sole director of AFM, serves as the Special
Managing Member. AFM is a wholly owned subsidiary of AEI
Capital Corporation of which Mr. Johnson is the majority
shareholder. 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 September 11, 2003 when
minimum subscriptions of 1,500 LLC Units ($1,500,000) were
accepted. The offering terminated May 12, 2005, when the
extended offering period expired. The Company received
subscriptions for 42,434.763 Units. Under the terms of the
Operating Agreement, the Limited Members and Managing
Members contributed funds of $42,434,763 and $1,000,
respectively. The Company shall continue until December 31,
2053, 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.
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.
AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009
(1) Organization - (Continued)
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.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies -
Financial Statement Presentation
The accounts of the Company are maintained on the accrual
basis of accounting for both federal income tax purposes
and financial reporting purposes.
Accounting Estimates
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing
these financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and
assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant items, subject to such estimates and
assumptions, include the carrying value of investments in
real estate.
The Company regularly assesses whether market events and
conditions indicate that it is reasonably possible to
recover the carrying amounts of its investments in real
estate from future operations and sales. A change in
those market events and conditions could have a material
effect on the carrying amount of its real estate.
AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - (Continued)
Cash Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company's cash is deposited in one financial
institution and at times during the year it may exceed
FDIC insurance limits.
Receivables
Credit terms are extended to tenants in the normal course
of business. The Company performs ongoing credit
evaluations of its customers' financial condition and,
generally, requires no collateral.
Receivables are recorded at their estimated net
realizable value. The Company follows a policy of
providing an allowance for doubtful accounts; however,
based on historical experience, and its evaluation of the
current status of receivables, the Company is of the
belief that such accounts, if any, will be collectible in
all material respects and thus an allowance is not
necessary. Accounts are considered past due if payment
is not made on a timely basis in accordance with the
Company's credit terms. Receivables considered
uncollectible are written off.
Income Taxes
The income or loss of the Company for federal income tax
reporting purposes is includable in the income tax
returns of the Members. In general, no recognition has
been given to income taxes in the accompanying financial
statements.
The tax return and the amount of distributable Company
income or loss are subject to examination by federal and
state taxing authorities. If such an examination results
in changes to distributable Company income or loss, the
taxable income of the members would be adjusted
accordingly. Primarily due to its tax status as a
partnership, the Company has no significant tax
uncertainties that require recognition or disclosure.
Revenue Recognition
The Company's real estate is leased under net leases,
classified as operating leases. The leases provide for
base annual rental payments payable in monthly
installments. The Company recognizes rental revenue
according to the terms of the individual leases. For
leases that contain stated rental increases, the
increases are recognized in the year in which they are
effective. Contingent rental payments are recognized
when the contingencies on which the payments are based
are satisfied and the rental payments become due under
the terms of the leases.
AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - (Continued)
Investments in Real Estate
The Company purchases properties and records them at
cost. The Company tests real estate 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, it compares the
carrying amount of the property to the estimated
probability-weighted future undiscounted cash flows
expected to result from the property and its eventual
disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash
flows is less than the carrying amount of the property,
the Company recognizes an impairment loss by the amount
by which the carrying amount of the property exceeds the
fair value of the property. For properties held for
sale, the Company 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.
Prior to January 1, 2009, the Company capitalized as
Investments in Real Estate certain costs incurred in the
review and acquisition of the properties. The costs were
allocated to the land, buildings and equipment. For
acquisitions completed on or after January 1, 2009,
acquisition-related transaction costs were expensed as
incurred as a result of the Company adopting new guidance
on business combinations that expands the scope of
acquisition accounting.
The buildings and equipment of the Company are
depreciated using the straight-line method for financial
reporting purposes based on estimated useful lives of 25
years and 5 years, respectively.
Upon complete disposal of a property or classification of
a property as Real Estate Held for Sale, the Company
includes the operating results and sale of the property
in discontinued operations. In addition, the Company
reclassifies the prior periods' operating results of the
property to discontinued operations.
The Company accounts for properties owned as tenants-in-
common with affiliated entities and/or unrelated third
parties using the proportionate consolidation method.
Each tenant-in-common owns a separate, undivided interest
in the properties. Any tenant-in-common that holds more
than a 50% interest does not control decisions over the
other tenant-in-common interests. The financial
statements reflect only this Company's percentage share
of the properties' land, building and equipment,
liabilities, revenues and expenses.
AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - (Continued)
The Company's properties are subject to environmental
laws and regulations adopted by various governmental
entities in the jurisdiction in which the properties are
located. These laws could require the Company to
investigate and remediate the effects of the release or
disposal of hazardous materials at these locations if
found. For each property, an environmental assessment is
completed prior to acquisition. In addition, the lease
agreements typically strictly prohibit the production,
handling, or storage of hazardous materials (except where
incidental to the tenant's business such as use of
cleaning supplies) in violation of applicable law to
restrict environmental and other damage. Environmental
liabilities are recorded when it is determined the
liability is probable and the costs can reasonably be
estimated. There were no environmental issues noted or
liabilities recorded at December 31, 2010 and 2009.
Fair Value Measurements
As of December 31, 2010, the Company has no assets or
liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis
or nonrecurring basis.
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.

(4) Investments in Real Estate -
The Company leases its properties to various tenants under
net leases, classified as operating leases. Under a net
lease, the tenant is responsible for real estate taxes,
insurance, maintenance, repairs and operating expenses for
the property. For some leases, the Company is responsible
for repairs to the structural components of the building,
the roof, and the parking lot. At the time the properties
were acquired, the remaining primary lease terms varied from
10 to 20 years. The leases provide the tenants with two to
four five-year renewal options subject to the same terms and
conditions as the primary term.

to purchase in any year more than 2% of the total number of

Units for $29,702 in accordance with the Operating

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of
management, including its President and Chief Financial Officer,
the Managing Member of the Company evaluated the effectiveness of
the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")). Based upon that
evaluation, the President and Chief Financial Officer of the
Managing Member concluded that, as of the end of the period
covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective in ensuring that information required to be
disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms
and that such information is accumulated and communicated to
management, including the President and Chief Financial Officer
of the Managing Member, in a manner that allows timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
(i) Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial
Reporting. The Managing Member, through its management, is
responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over our financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-
15(f) under the Exchange Act, and for performing an assessment of
the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2010. Internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and
the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our
system of internal control over financial reporting includes
those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance
of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of management
of the Managing Member; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Management of the Managing Member performed an assessment
of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2010 based upon criteria in Internal
Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").
Based on our assessment, management of the Managing Member
determined that our internal control over financial reporting was
effective as of December 31, 2010 based on the criteria in
Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the COSO.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. (Continued)
This annual report does not include an attestation report
of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal
control over financial reporting. Management's report was not
subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm
pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that
permit us to provide only management's report in this annual
report.
(ii) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial
Reporting. During the most recent period covered by this report,
there has been no change in our internal control over financial
reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act)
that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION.
None.
PART III
ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE.
The registrant is a limited liability company and has no
officers, directors, or direct employees. The Managing Members
manage and control the Company's affairs and have general
responsibility and the ultimate authority in all matters
affecting the Company's business. The Managing Members are AEI
Fund Management XXI, Inc. ("AFM"), the Managing Member, and
Robert P. Johnson, Chief Executive Officer, President and sole
director of AFM, the Special Managing Member. AFM is a wholly
owned subsidiary of AEI Capital Corporation of which Mr. Johnson
is the majority shareholder. AFM has only one senior financial
executive, its Chief Financial Officer. The Chief Financial
Officer reports directly to Mr. Johnson and is accountable for
his actions to Mr. Johnson. Although Mr. Johnson and AFM require
that all of their personnel, including the Chief Financial
Officer, engage in honest and ethical conduct, ensure full, fair,
accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure, comply with all
applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations, and report
to Mr. Johnson any deviation from these principles, because the
organization is composed of only approximately 35 individuals,
because the management of a company by an entity that has
different interests in distributions and income than investors
involves numerous conflicts of interest that must be resolved on
a daily basis, and because the ultimate decision maker in all
instances is Mr. Johnson, AFM has not adopted a formal code of
conduct. Instead, the materials pursuant to which investors
purchase Units disclose these conflicts of interest in detail and
Mr. Johnson, as the CEO and sole director of AFM, resolves
conflicts to the best of his ability, consistent with his
fiduciary obligations to AFM and the fiduciary obligations of AFM
to the Company. The director and officers of AFM are as follows:
ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE.
(Continued)
Robert P. Johnson, age 66, is Chief Executive Officer,
President and sole director and has held these positions since
the formation of AFM in August 1994, and has been elected to
continue in these positions until December 2011. From 1970 to
the present, he has been employed exclusively in the investment
industry, specializing in limited partnership investments. In
that capacity, he has been involved in the development, analysis,
marketing and management of public and private investment
programs investing in net lease properties as well as public and
private investment programs investing in energy development.
Since 1971, Mr. Johnson has been the president, a director and a
registered principal of AEI Securities, Inc., which is registered
with the SEC as a securities broker-dealer, is a member of the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and is a member
of the Security Investors Protection Corporation (SIPC). Mr.
Johnson has been president, a director and the principal
shareholder of AEI Fund Management, Inc., a real estate
management company founded by him, since 1978. Mr. Johnson is
currently a general partner or principal of the general partner
in nine limited partnerships and a managing member in five LLCs.
Patrick W. Keene, age 51, is Chief Financial Officer,
Treasurer and Secretary and has held these positions since
January 22, 2003 and has been elected to continue in these
positions until December 2011. Mr. Keene has been employed by
AEI Fund Management, Inc. and affiliated entities since 1986.
Prior to being elected to the positions above, he was Controller
of the various entities. From 1982 to 1986, Mr. Keene was with
KPMG Peat Marwick Certified Public Accountants, first as an
auditor and later as a tax manager. Mr. Keene is responsible for
all accounting functions of AFM and the registrant.
Since Mr. Johnson serves as the Special Managing Member of
the Company, as well as the sole director of AFM, all of the
duties that might be assigned to an audit committee are assigned
to Mr. Johnson. Mr. Johnson is not an audit committee financial
expert, as defined. As an officer and majority owner, through a
parent company, of AFM, and as the Special Managing Member, Mr.
Johnson is not a "disinterested director" and may be subject to a
number of conflicts of interests in his capacity as sole director
of AFM.
Before the independent auditors are engaged, Mr. Johnson,
as the sole director of AFM, approves all audit-related fees, and
all permissible nonaudit fees, for services of our auditors.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Under federal securities laws, the directors and officers
of the Managing Member of the Company, and any beneficial owner
of more than 10% of a class of equity securities of the Company,
are required to report their ownership of the Company's equity
securities and any changes in such ownership to the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). Specific due dates
for these reports have been established by the Commission, and
the Company is required to disclose in this Annual Report on 10-
K any delinquent filing of such reports and any failure to file
such reports during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.
Based upon information provided by officers and directors of the
Managing Member, all officers, directors and 10% owners filed all
reports on a timely basis in the 2010 fiscal year.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.
The Managing Member and affiliates are reimbursed at cost
for all services performed on behalf of the registrant and for
all third party expenses paid on behalf of the registrant. The
cost for services performed on behalf of the registrant is based
on actual time spent performing such services plus an overhead
burden. These services include organizing the registrant and
arranging for the offer and sale of Units, reviewing properties
for acquisition and rendering administrative, property management
and property sales services. The amount and nature of such
payments are detailed in Item 13 of this annual report on Form 10-
K.
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND
MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
The following table sets forth information pertaining to
the ownership of the Units by each person known by the Company to
beneficially own 5% or more of the Units, by each Managing
Member, and by each officer or director of the Managing Member as
of February 28, 2011:
Name and Address Number of Percent
of Beneficial Owner Units Held of Class
AEI Fund Management XXI, Inc. 0 0%
Robert P. Johnson 0 0%
Patrick W. Keene 0 0%
Address for all:
1300 Wells Fargo Place
30 East 7th Street, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101
The Managing Members know of no holders of more than 5% of the
outstanding Units.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.
The registrant, AFM and its affiliates have common
management and utilize the same facilities. As a result, certain
administrative expenses are allocated among these related
entities. All of such activities and any other transactions
involving the affiliates of the Managing Member of the registrant
are governed by, and are conducted in conformity with, the
limitations set forth in the Operating Agreement of the
registrant. Reference is made to Note 3 of the Financial
Statements, as presented, and is incorporated herein by
reference, for details of related party transactions for the
years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
Neither the registrant, nor the Managing Member of the
registrant, has a board of directors consisting of any members
who are "independent." The sole director of the Managing Member,
Robert P. Johnson, is also the Special Managing Member of the
registrant, and is the Chief Executive Officer, and indirectly
the principal owner, of the Managing Member. Accordingly, there
is no disinterested board, or other functioning body, that
reviews related party transactions, or the transactions between
the registrant and the Managing Members, except as performed in
connection with the audit of its financial statements.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE. (Continued)
The limitations included in the Operating Agreement
require that the cumulative reimbursements to the Managing
Members and their affiliates for certain expenses will not exceed
an amount equal to the sum of (i) 20% of capital contributions,
(ii) 1% of gross revenues, plus an initial leasing fee of 3% of
gross revenues for the first five years of the original term of
each lease, (iii) 3% of Net Proceeds of Sale, and (iv) 10% of Net
Cash Flow less the Net Cash Flow actually distributed to the
Managing Members. The cumulative reimbursements subject to this
limitation are reimbursements for (i) organization and offering
expenses, including commissions, (ii) acquisition expenses, (iii)
services provided in the sales effort of properties, and (iv)
expenses of controlling persons and overhead expenses directly
attributable to the forgoing services or attributable to
administrative services. As of December 31, 2010, these
cumulative reimbursements to the Managing Members and their
affiliates did not exceed the limitation amount.
The following table sets forth the forms of compensation,
distributions and cost reimbursements paid by the registrant to
the Managing Members or their Affiliates in connection with the
