The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 6 7 IEA MARINE CONTAINER INCOME FUND IV (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Nature of Operations IEA Marine Container Income Fund IV (A California Limited Partnership) (the "Partnership") was organized under the laws of the State of California on November 25, 1981 for the purpose of owning and leasing marine cargo containers. The managing general partner is Cronos Capital Corp. ("CCC"); the associate general partner is Smith Barney Shearson, Inc. CCC, with its affiliate Cronos Containers Limited (the "Leasing Company"), manages the business of the Partnership. The Partnership commenced operations on March 19, 1982, when the minimum subscription proceeds of $1,000,000 were obtained. The Partnership offered 40,000 units of limited partnership interest at $500 per unit, or $20,000,000. The offering terminated on December 31, 1982, at which time 27,715 limited partnership units had been purchased. As of June 30, 1997, 27% of the original equipment remained in the Partnership's fleet and was comprised of 1,380 twenty-foot and 1,502 forty-foot marine dry cargo containers. Commencing in 1991, the Partnership's 10th year of operations, the Partnership began focusing its attention on the disposition of its fleet in accordance with another of its original investment objectives, realizing the residual value of its containers after the expiration of their economic useful lives, estimated to be between 10 to 15 years after placement in leased service. During this phase, the Partnership has actively disposed of containers within its fleet, while cash proceeds from equipment disposals, in addition to cash from operations, provided the cash flow for distributions to the limited partners. The Partnership, having just completed its 15th year of operations, will focus its attention during 1997 on disposing its remaining fleet. (b) Leasing Company and Leasing Agent Agreement Pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership, all authority to administer the business of the Partnership is vested in CCC. CCC has entered into a Leasing Agent Agreement whereby the Leasing Company has the responsibility to manage the leasing operations of all equipment owned by the Partnership. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Leasing Company is responsible for leasing, managing and re-leasing the Partnership's containers to ocean carriers and has full discretion over which ocean carriers and suppliers of goods and services it may deal with. The Leasing Agent Agreement permits the Leasing Company to use the containers owned by the Partnership, together with other containers owned or managed by the Leasing Company and its affiliates, as part of a single fleet operated without regard to ownership. Since the Leasing Agent Agreement meets the definition of an operating lease in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 13, it is accounted for as a lease under which the Partnership is lessor and the Leasing Company is lessee. (continued) 7 8 IEA MARINE CONTAINER INCOME FUND IV (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Leasing Agent Agreement generally provides that the Leasing Company will make payments to the Partnership based upon rentals collected from ocean carriers after deducting direct operating expenses and management fees to CCC. The Leasing Company leases containers to ocean carriers, generally under operating leases which are either master leases or term leases (mostly two to five years). Master leases do not specify the exact number of containers to be leased or the term that each container will remain on hire but allow the ocean carrier to pick up and drop off containers at various locations; rentals are based upon the number of containers used and the applicable per-diem rate. Accordingly, rentals under master leases are all variable and contingent upon the number of containers used. Most containers are leased to ocean carriers under master leases; leasing agreements with fixed payment terms are not material to the financial statements. Since there are no material minimum lease rentals, no disclosure of minimum lease rentals is provided in these financial statements. (c) Basis of Accounting The Partnership utilizes the accrual method of accounting. Net lease revenue is recorded by the Partnership in each period based upon its leasing agent agreement with the Leasing Company. Net lease revenue is generally dependent upon operating lease rentals from operating lease agreements between the Leasing Company and its various lessees, less direct operating expenses and management fees due in respect of the containers specified in each operating lease agreement. (d) Financial Statement Presentation These financial statements have been prepared without audit. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting procedures have been omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes in the Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-K. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The interim financial statements presented herewith reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods presented. (continued) 8 9 IEA MARINE CONTAINER INCOME FUND IV (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (2) Net Lease Receivables Due from Leasing Company Net lease receivables due from the Leasing Company are determined by deducting direct operating payables and accrued expenses, and incentive fees payable to CCC and its affiliates from the rental billings payable by the Leasing Company to the Partnership under operating leases to ocean carriers for the containers owned by the Partnership. Net lease receivables at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 were as follows:
June 30, December 31, 1997 1996 -------- ----------- Lease receivables, net of doubtful accounts of $364,229 at June 30, 1997 and $308,477 at December 31, 1996 $614,139 $863,002 Less: Direct operating payables and accrued expenses 157,620 168,062 Damage protection reserve 72,705 76,359 Incentive fees 82,653 120,242 -------- -------- $301,161 $498,339 ======== ========
(3) Net Lease Revenue Net lease revenue is determined by deducting direct operating expenses and base management and incentive fees to CCC from the rental revenue billed by the Leasing Company under operating leases to ocean carriers for the containers owned by the Partnership. Net lease revenue for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, was as follows:

9 10 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations It is suggested that the following discussion be read in conjunction with the Registrant's most recent annual report on Form 10-K. 1) Material changes in financial condition between June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996. As discussed in the Registrant's report for the year ended December 31, 1996, the Registrant entered 1997 with a view towards focusing its attention on reviewing various alternatives and opportunities for disposing its remaining container fleet. During the first six months of 1997, the Registrant disposed of 600 containers as part of its ongoing container operations, contributing to a decline in the Registrant's operating results and the related cash balances. At June 30, 1997, 27% of the original equipment remained in the Registrant's fleet, as compared to 32% at December 31, 1996, and was comprised of the following:
20-Foot 40-Foot ------- ----- Containers on lease: Term leases 88 129 Master lease 1,156 1,004 ----- ----- Subtotal 1,244 1,133 Containers off lease 136 369 ------ ------ Total container fleet 1,380 1,502 ===== =====
20-Foot 40-Foot -------------- ------------- Units % Units % -------------- ------------- Total purchases 7,097 100% 3,647 100% Less disposals 5,717 81% 2,145 59% ----- ---- ----- ---- Remaining fleet at June 30, 1997 1,380 19% 1,502 41% ===== ==== ===== ====
The Registrant's diminishing fleet size and its related operating performance contributed to a 40% decline in net lease receivables at June 30, 1997, when compared to December 31, 1996. During the second quarter of 1997, distributions from operations and sales proceeds amounted to $656,163, reflecting distributions to the general and limited partners for the first quarter of 1997. This represents a decline from the $970,819 distributed during the first quarter of 1997, reflecting distributions for the fourth quarter of 1996. The Registrant's efforts to dispose of the remaining fleet should produce lower operating results and, consequently, lower distributions to its partners in subsequent quarters. 10 11 During 1996, ocean carriers and other transport companies moved away from leasing containers outright, as declining container prices, favorable interest rates and the abundance of available capital resulted in ocean carriers and transport companies purchasing a larger share of equipment for their own account, reducing the demand for leased containers. Once the demand for leased containers began to fall, per-diem rental rates were also adversely affected, contributing to an uncertain start to 1997. Since the beginning of the year, the container leasing industry has experienced an upward trend in container utilization. This trend can also be seen within the Registrant's utilization rate, which remained at a favorable level of 81% at June 30, 1997, consistent with the December 31, 1996 utilization rate. During 1996, shipping lines and other transport companies had reduced their leased fleets to minimal levels in an attempt to reduce costs. However, increasing cargo volumes and continued equipment imbalances within the container fleets of shipping lines and transport companies have established a need for these companies to replenish their leased fleets. Although there has been an improvement in container utilization rates, per-diem rental rates continue to remain under pressure. The decline in per-diem rental rates from those evidenced during 1996 can be attributed to the following factors: three new leasing companies have offered new containers and low rental rates in an effort to break into the leasing market; established leasing companies have reduced rates to very low levels; and a continued over supply of containers. Although these conditions are expected to continue to impact the Registrant's financial condition and operating performance throughout 1997, the long-term outlook remains a positive one. 2) Material changes in the results of operations between the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996. Net lease revenue for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 was $92,172 and $311,128, respectively, a decline of 63% and 47% from the same three and six-month periods in the prior year, respectively. Approximately 60% and 62% of the Registrant's net earnings for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997, respectively, were from gain on disposal of equipment, as compared to 81% and 71% for the same three and six-month periods in the prior year, respectively. As the Registrant continues the disposal of its containers in subsequent periods, net gain on disposal should contribute significantly to the Registrant's net earnings. Gross rental revenue (a component of net lease revenue) for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 was $422,831 and $894,564, respectively, reflecting a decline of 48% and 49% from the same three and six-month periods in 1996, respectively. During 1997, gross rental revenue was impacted by the Registrant's diminishing fleet size, a slight decline in utilization rates and a decline in per-diem rental rates. Average per-diem rental rates decreased approximately 12% and 10%, when compared to the same three and six-month periods in the prior year, respectively. The Registrant's average fleet size and utilization rates for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996 were as follows:
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended --------------------- ---------------------- June 30, June 30, June 30, June 30, 1997 1996 1997 1996 ------ ------ ------ ------- Average Fleet Size (measured in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU)) 4,520 7,282 4,792 7,903 Average Utilization 82% 84% 82% 83%
11 12 Rental equipment operating expenses were 36% and 26% of the Registrant's gross lease revenue during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997, respectively, as compared to 27% and 25% during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively. Contributing to the increase for the three-month period ended June 30, 1997 were increases in the provision for doubtful accounts and related legal expenses associated with the collection actions against the doubtful accounts of certain lessees. The Registrant's declining fleet size and related operating performance also contributed to a decline in base management and incentive fees, when compared to the same periods in the prior year. The Registrant's fleet became fully depreciated during the first quarter of 1997, contributing to the decline in depreciation expense. As reported in the Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K and Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on February 7, 1997 and February 26, 1997, respectively, Arthur Andersen, London, England, resigned as auditors of The Cronos Group, a Luxembourg Corporation headquartered in Orchard Lea, England (the "Parent Company"), on February 3, 1997. The Parent Company is the indirect corporate parent of Cronos Capital Corp., the managing general partner of the Registrant. In its letter of resignation to the Parent Company, Arthur Andersen states that it resigned as auditors of the Parent Company and all other entities affiliated with the Parent Company. While its letter of resignation was not addressed to the managing general partner or the Registrant, Arthur Andersen confirmed to the managing general partner that its resignation as auditors of the entities referred to in its letter of resignation included its resignation as auditors of Cronos Capital Corp. and the Registrant. Following Arthur Andersen's resignation, the Parent Company subsequently received notification from the Securities and Exchange Commission that it was conducting a private investigation of the Parent Company regarding the events and circumstances leading to Arthur Andersen's resignation. The results of this investigation are still pending. Accordingly, the Registrant does not, at this time, have sufficient information to determine the impact, if any, that the Securities and Exchange Commission investigation of the Parent Company and the concerns expressed by Arthur Andersen in its letter of resignation may have on the future operating results and financial condition of the Registrant or the Leasing Company's ability to manage the Registrant's fleet in subsequent periods. However, the managing general partner of the Registrant does not believe, based upon the information currently available to it, that Arthur Andersen's resignation was triggered by any concern over the accounting policies and procedures followed by the Registrant. Arthur Andersen's report on the financial statements of Cronos Capital Corp. and the Registrant, for either of the previous two years, has not contained an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was any such report qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the Registrant's previous two fiscal years and the subsequent interim period preceding Arthur Andersen's resignation, there have been no disagreements between Cronos Capital Corp. or the Registrant and Arthur Andersen on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure. The Registrant retained a new auditor, Moore Stephens, P.C. ("Moore Stephens") on April 10, 1997, as reported in the Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K, filed April 14, 1997. The President of the Leasing Company, a subsidiary of the Parent Company, along with two marketing Vice Presidents, resigned in June 1997. These vacancies were filled by qualified, long-time employees who average over 15 years of experience in the container leasing industry, therefore providing continuity in the management of the Leasing Company. The Registrant and managing general partner do not believe these changes will have a material impact on the future operating results and financial condition of the Registrant. 12 13 Cautionary Statement This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements relating to future results of the Registrant, including certain projections and business trends, that are "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from those projected as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to changes in: economic conditions; trade policies; demand for and market acceptance of leased marine cargo containers; competitive utilization and per-diem rental rate pressures; as well as other risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those described in the above discussion of the marine container leasing business under Item 2., Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; and those detailed from time to time in the filings of Registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 13 14 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
