See accompanying notes to financial statements. RMI COVERED HOPPER RAILCAR MANAGEMENT PROGRAM 79-1 NOTES TO THE STATEMENTS OF REVENUES COLLECTED AND EXPENSES PAID AND OTHER CHANGES IN CASH September 30, 1996 1. Basis of Presentation RMI Covered Hopper Railcar Management Program 79-1 (the Program) is not a legal entity. The statements of revenues collected and expenses paid and other changes in cash (the Statements) of the Program are presented on the cash basis of accounting, used for reporting to investors in the Program in accordance with the Management Agreement with PLM Investment Management, Inc. (IMI). Under the cash basis, revenues are recognized when received, rather than when earned, and expenses are recognized when paid, rather than when the obligation is incurred. Accordingly, the Statements are not intended to present financial position, or results of operations or cash flows in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 2. Operations At September 30, 1996, 469 cars, which are owned by the investors, were being managed by IMI under the Program, all of which were covered by lease agreements. During the nine months ending September 30,1996, five cars were added, 31 cars were sold and 14 railcars transferred from several investors to other investors. 3. Equalization reserve Under the terms of the management agreement, IMI may, at its discretion, cause the Program to retain a certain amount of cash (the working capital reserve) to cover future disbursements and provide for a balanced distribution of funds to the investors each quarter. IMI has determined the working capital reserve at September 30, 1996, to be $942,136 ($873,359 at December 31, 1995). Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CASH BALANCES AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Liquidity and Capital Resources The Program's capital commitments consist of paying operating expenses, and to the extent funds are available, making cash distributions to the investors. Cash reserves are considered sufficient to cover all known liabilities of the equipment pool. Comparison of the Program's Revenues Collected, Expenses Paid and Other Changes in Cash for the Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 Revenues collected: (1) Lease receipts decreased to $618,363 in the third quarter of 1996, from $620,590 in the third quarter of 1995. The decrease is primarily due to the disposition of 31 cars in the first two quarters of 1996, and the timing of receipt of revenues during the comparable periods, offset by five cars that were added during the first two quarters of 1996. (2) Interest and other income decreased to $17,187 in the third quarter of 1996, from $19,330 in the third quarter of 1995, due to lower interest income resulting from lower cash balances and a lower rate of interest paid. Expenses paid: (1) Repairs and maintenance expense decreased to $92,950 in the third quarter of 1996, from $97,293 in the third quarter of 1995. The decrease is due to the disposition of 31 railcars during the first two quarters of 1996 and the timing of payments of expenses during comparable periods. (2) Property taxes decreased to $2,815 in the third quarter of 1996, from $4,909 in the third quarter of 1995. The decrease is due to the disposition of 31 railcars during the first two quarters of 1996 and the timing of payments for these expenses during the comparable periods, as the tax rates remained constant. (3) Accounting and legal fees decreased to $911 in the third quarter of 1996, from $1,824 in the third quarter of 1995 due to the timing of payments for these expenses during the comparable periods, as the service level remain the same. (4) Storage, repositioning and other expenses increased to $3,401 in the third quarter of 1996, from $3,001 in the third quarter of 1995. The increase is primarily due to the timing of payments of expenses during comparable periods. Other changes in cash: (1) Prepaid mileage, reimbursable repairs and other are composed primarily of receipts of mileage credits from railroads which are due to lessees, net of reimbursable repairs due from lessees. The funds decreased by $207,216 in the third quarter of 1996, as compared to an increase of $48,992 in the third quarter of 1995. The difference between comparable periods is due primarily to the timing of net receipts and repayments of these funds by the Program. Other changes in cash: (continued) (2) Management fees paid increased to $67,536 in the third quarter 1996, from $67,431 in the third quarter of 1995. The increase is primarily due to $14,070 of incentive fees for net income over $750 per car that was paid in the third quarter of 1996, as compared to $11,115 that was paid in the third quarter of 1995, offset by the decrease in the number of cars. The Program distributed $449,964 to investors in the third quarter 1996, a 1% increase from the comparable period in 1995. The Program's performance in the second quarter 1996 is not necessarily indicative of future periods. Comparison of the Program's Revenues Collected, Expenses Paid and Other Changes in Cash for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 Revenues collected: (1) Lease receipts increased to $1,875,508 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, from $1,870,231 for the comparable period in 1995. The increase is primarily due to higher average lease rates and five cars being added during the nine months ended September 30, 1996, offset by 31 railcars that were sold or destroyed in the first two quarters of 1996. (2) Interest and other income decreased to $55,247 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, from $65,268 for the comparable period in 1995. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in interest income resulting from lower cash balances and a lower rate of interest paid. Expenses paid: (1) Repairs and maintenance expense decreased to $230,945 in the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, from $240,397 for the comparable period in 1995. The decrease is primarily due to the disposition of 31 railcars during the first two quarters of 1996 and the timing of payments of expenses during comparable periods. (2) Insurance increased to $3,195 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, from expense of a credit amount of $254 for the comparable period in 1995. The increase is due to a refund of 1993 annual premium for contingent liability insurance received in the first quarter of 1995, no refund was received in 1996. (3) Property taxes decreased to $15,555 for the nine-month ended September 30, 1996, from $21,362 for the comparable period in 1995. The decrease is due to the disposition of 31 cars during the first two quarters of 1996 and the timing receipt of invoices from various states, and to the timing of payments for these expenses during the comparable periods, as the tax rates remained constant. (4) Accounting and legal fees increased to $8,576 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, from $6,334 for the comparable period in 1995 is due to timing of payments for these expenses during the comparable periods, as the service level remains the same. (5) Storage, repositioning and other expenses decreased to $8,072 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, from $10,037 for the comparable period in 1995. The decrease is due to timing of payments for these expenses during comparable periods. Other changes in cash: (1) Prepaid mileage, reimbursable repairs and other are composed primarily of receipts of mileage credits from railroads which are due to lessees, net of reimbursable repairs due from lessees. The funds decreased by $249,488 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, as compared to an increase of $49,037 for the comparable period in 1995. The difference between comparable periods is due primarily to the timing of net receipts and repayments of these funds by the Program. (2) Management fees paid increased to $204,051 in the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, from $195,103 for the comparable period in 1995. The increase is primarily due to $40,310 of incentive fees for net income over $750 per car that was paid during 1996, as compared to $25,965 in incentive fees which was paid during 1995, offset by the decrease in the number of cars. The Program distributed $1,407,065 to investors for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, a 9% increase from the comparable period in 1995. Inflation and changing prices did not materially impact the Program's revenues collected, expenses, and other changes in cash during the reported periods.
