The accompanying notes are an integral part of these statements. 6 7 IEA MARINE CONTAINER INCOME FUND V(B) NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Nature of Operations IEA Marine Container Income Fund V(B) (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of California on August 8, 1983 for the purpose of owning and leasing marine cargo containers. The managing general partner is Cronos Capital Corp. ("CCC"); the associate general partners include four individuals. CCC, with its affiliate Cronos Containers Limited (the "Leasing Company"), manages and controls the business of the Partnership. (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. 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. Revenue is recognized when earned. The Partnership has determined that for accounting purposes the Leasing Agent Agreement is a lease, and the receivables, payables, gross revenues and operating expenses attributable to the containers managed by the Leasing Company are, for accounting purposes, those of the Leasing Company and not of the Partnership. Consequently, the Partnership's balance sheets and statements of operations display the payments to be received by the Partnership from the Leasing Company as the Partnership's receivables and revenues. (Continued) 7 8 IEA MARINE CONTAINER INCOME FUND V(B) NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (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. 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. (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, base management fees payable, reimbursed administrative expenses and incentive fees payable to CCC, the Leasing Company, 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, 1996 and December 31, 1995 were as follows:
June 30, December 31, 1996 1995 ---------- ------------ Lease receivables, net of doubtful accounts of $146,797 at June 30, 1996 and $106,894 at December 31, 1995 $ 445,570 $ 499,036 Less: Direct operating payables and accrued expenses 82,489 114,433 Damage protection reserve 32,632 31,523 Base management fees 19,517 30,150 Reimbursed administrative expenses 4,524 6,028 Incentive fees 65,298 39,831 ----------- ----------- $ 241,110 $ 277,071 =========== ===========

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, 1996 and December 31, 1995. During the first six months of 1996, the Registrant continued disposing of containers as part of its ongoing operations. Accordingly, 660 containers were disposed, contributing to an increase in cash generated from sales proceeds, and accordingly, the related cash balances. At June 30, 1996, 44% of the original equipment remained in the Registrant's fleet, as compared to 62% at December 31, 1995, comprised as follows:
40-Foot 20-Foot 40-Foot High-Cube ------- ------- --------- Containers on lease: Term leases 103 14 10 Master lease 918 251 99 ----- --- --- Subtotal 1,021 265 109 Containers off lease 140 45 26 ----- --- --- Total container fleet 1,161 310 135 ===== === ===
40-Foot 20-Foot 40-Foot High-Cube --------------- -------------- -------------- Units % Units % Units % ----- ---- ----- ---- ----- ---- Total purchases 2,761 100% 719 100% 150 100% Less disposals 1,600 58% 409 57% 15 10% ----- --- --- --- --- --- Remaining fleet at June 30, 1996 1,161 42% 310 43% 135 90% ===== === === === === ===
Net lease receivables at June 30, 1996 declined when compared to December 31, 1995, as the Registrant's diminishing fleet size and related operating performance contributed to declines in gross lease receivables. During the second quarter of 1996, distributions from operations and sales proceeds amount to $329,102, reflecting distributions to the general and limited partners for the first quarter of 1996. This represents a decline from the $358,487 distributed during the first quarter of 1996, reflecting distributions for the fourth quarter of 1995. The Registrant's continuing disposal activity should produce lower operating results and, consequently, lower distributions from operations to its partners in subsequent periods. However, sales proceeds distributed to its partners may fluctuate in subsequent periods, reflecting the level of container disposals. The statements contained in the following discussion are based on current expectations. These statements are forward looking and actual results may differ materially. The container leasing market generally softened during the fourth quarter of 1995 and has remained so during the first six months of 1996. At June 30, 1996, container inventories remained at larger-than-usual levels, resulting in a decline in the Registrant's utilization rate from 87% at December 31, 1995 to 84% at June 30, 1996. Base per-diem rates have become subject to downward pressures arising from a soft container leasing market. During the first six months of 1996, the Leasing Company implemented various marketing strategies, including but not limited to, offering incentives to shipping companies and repositioning containers to high demand locations in order to counter these market conditions. Accordingly, ancillary per-diems have fluctuated, favoring a downward trend, while free-day incentives offered to shipping companies have risen. Currently, there are no visible signs of improvements in the leasing market and hence further downward pressure on rental rates can be expected in the ensuing quarters. As a result, these leasing markets conditions, combined with the Registrant's disposal of containers, will continue to impact the Registrant's results from operations during the remainder of 1996. (Continued) 10 11 2) Material changes in the results of operations between the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995. Net lease revenue for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 was $82,338 and $245,735, respectively, a decline of 66% and 50% from the same three and six-month periods in the prior year, respectively. Approximately 70% and 50% of the Registrant's net earnings for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively, were from gain on disposal of equipment, as compared to 18% and 23% for the same three and six-month periods in the prior year, respectively. As the Registrant accelerates the disposal of its containers in subsequent periods, net gain on disposal will 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, 1996 was $260,535, and $572,737, respectively, reflecting a decline of 39% and 33% from the same three and six-month periods in 1995, respectively. During 1996, gross rental revenue was primarily impacted by the Registrant's diminishing fleet size and lower utilization levels. Average per-diem rental rates decreased approximately 4% and 3%, when compared to the same three and six-month periods in the prior year, respectively, as they became subject to the downward pressures of an increasingly soft container leasing market. The Registrant's average fleet size and utilization rates for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1995 were as follows:
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended ---------------------- ------------------------ June 30, June 30, June 30, June 30, 1996 1995 1996 1995 -------- -------- -------- -------- Average Fleet Size (measured in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU)) 2,186 3,204 2,419 3,331 Average Utilization 86% 88% 84% 88%
The Registrant's aging and declining fleet size contributed to a 29% and 24% decline in depreciation expense when compared to the same three and six-month periods in the prior year, respectively. Rental equipment operating expenses were 32% and 27% of the Registrant's gross lease revenue during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively, as compared to 21% and 20% during the same three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, respectively. This increase was largely attributable to a decline in gross lease revenue resulting from lower per-diem rates, a downward trend in ancillary per-diems, and an increase in free-day incentives offered to shipping companies. Costs associated with lower utilization levels, including handling, storage and repositioning also contributed to the increase in the rental equipment operating expenses, as a percentage of gross lease revenue. The Registrant's declining fleet size and related operating performance contributed to the decline in base management and incentive fees, when compared to the same periods in the prior year.
