At March 31, 1995, the Partnership's equipment portfolio included equipment having a proportionate original cost of $13,590,221, representing approximately 94% of total equipment cost. At March 31, 1995, the Partnership was not holding any equipment not subject to a lease and no equipment was held for sale or re-lease. NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS All operating expenses incurred by the Partnership are paid by AFG on behalf of the Partnership and AFG is reimbursed at its actual cost for such expenditures. Fees and other costs incurred during each of the three month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, which were paid or accrued by the Partnership to AFG or its Affiliates, are as follows: 1995 1994 Equipment management fees $ 19,927 $ 23,748 Administrative charges 3,000 3,000 Reimbursable operating expenses due to third parties 21,447 14,398 Total $ 44,374 $ 41,146 All rents and proceeds from the sale of equipment are paid directly to either AFG or to a lender. AFG temporarily deposits collected funds in a separate interest-bearing escrow account prior to remittance to the Partnership. At March 31, 1995, the Partnership was owed $105,125 by AFG for such funds and the interest thereon. These funds were remitted to the Partnership in April 1995. NOTE 6 - NOTES PAYABLE Notes payable at March 31, 1995 consisted of installment notes of $811,610 payable to banks and institutional lenders. All the installment notes are non-recourse, with interest rates ranging between 6.25% and 8.05%, except one note which bears a fluctuating interest rate equal to the prime rate of interest plus 1% (10% at March 31, 1995). The installment notes are collateralized by the equipment and assignment of the related lease payments and certain remarketing proceeds. Generally, the installment notes will be fully amortized by noncancellable rents. The annual maturities of the installment notes payable are as follows: For the year ending March 31, 1996 $ 792,732 1997 18,878 Total $ 811,610 AMERICAN INCOME 7 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP FORM 10-Q PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Three months ended March 31, 1995 compared to the three months ended March 31, 1994: Overview As an equipment leasing partnership, the Partnership was organized to acquire a diversified portfolio of capital equipment subject to lease agreements with third parties. The Partnership was designed to progress through three principal phases: acquisitions, operations, and liquidation. During the operations phase, a period of approximately six years, all equipment in the Partnership's portfolio will progress through various stages. Initially, all equipment will generate rental revenues under primary term lease agreements. During the life of the Partnership, these agreements will expire on an intermittent basis and equipment held pursuant to the related leases will be renewed, re-leased or sold, depending on prevailing market conditions and the assessment of such conditions by AFG to obtain the most advantageous economic benefit. Over time, a greater portion of the Partnership's original equipment portfolio will become available for remarketing and cash generated from operations and from sales or refinancings will begin to fluctuate. Ultimately, all equipment will be sold and the Partnership will be dissolved. The Partnership's operations commenced in 1986. Results of Operations For the three months ended March 31, 1995 the Partnership recognized lease revenue of $398,544 compared to $474,954 for the same period in 1994. The decrease in lease revenue between 1994 and 1995 was expected and resulted principally from primary and renewal lease term expirations and the sale of equipment. The Partnership's equipment portfolio includes certain assets in which the Partnership holds a proportionate ownership interest. In such cases, the remaining interests are owned by AFG or an affiliated equipment leasing program sponsored by AFG. Proportionate equipment ownership enables the Partnership to further diversify its equipment portfolio by participating in the ownership of selected assets, thereby reducing the general levels of risk which could result from a concentration in any single equipment type, industry or lessee. The Partnership and each affiliate individually report, in proportion to their respective ownership interests, their respective shares of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses associated with the equipment. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1995 was $11,592 compared to $7,769 for the same period in 1994. Interest income is generated from the temporary investment of rental receipts and equipment sale proceeds in short-term instruments. The increase in interest income from 1994 to 1995 was primarily attributable to an increase in interest rates. The amount of future interest income is expected to fluctuate in relation to prevailing interest rates, the collection of lease revenue and the proceeds from equipment sales. During the three months ended March 31, 1995, the Partnership sold equipment which had been fully depreciated to existing lessees and third parties. These sales resulted in a net gain, for financial statement purposes, of $6,300. There were no equipment sales during the three months ended March 31, 1994. It cannot be determined whether future sales of equipment will result in a net gain or a net loss to the Partnership, as such transactions will be dependent upon the condition and type of equipment being sold and its marketability at the time of sale. In addition, the amount of gain or loss reported for financial statement purposes is partly a function of the amount of accumulated depreciation associated with the equipment being sold. The ultimate realization of residual value for any type of equipment is dependent upon many factors, including AFG's ability to sell and re-lease equipment. Changing market conditions, industry trends, technological advances, and many other events can converge to enhance or detract from asset values at any given time. AFG attempts to monitor these changes in order to identify opportunities which may be advantageous to the Partnership and which will maximize total cash returns for each asset. The total economic value realized upon final disposition of each asset is comprised of all primary lease term revenue generated from that asset, together with its residual value. The latter consists of cash proceeds realized upon the asset's sale in addition to all other cash receipts obtained from renting the asset on a re-lease, renewal or month-to-month basis. The Partnership classifies such residual rental payments as lease revenue. Consequently, the amount of gain or loss reported in the financial statements is not necessarily indicative of the total residual value the Partnership achieved from leasing the equipment. Depreciation expense was $232,228 and $242,784 for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. For financial reporting purposes, to the extent that an asset is held on primary lease term, the Partnership depreciates the difference between (i) the cost of the asset and (ii) the estimated residual value of the asset on a straight-line basis over such term. For purposes of this policy, estimated residual values represent estimates of equipment values at the date of primary lease expiration. To the extent that an asset is held beyond its primary lease term, the Partnership continues to depreciate the remaining net book value of the asset on a straight-line basis over the asset's remaining economic life. Interest expense was $18,248 or 4.6% of lease revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1995 compared to $34,612 or 7.3% of lease revenue for the same period in 1994. Interest expense in future periods will continue to decline in amount and as a percentage of lease revenue as the principal balance of notes payable is reduced through the application of rent receipts to outstanding debt. Management fees were 5% of lease revenue during each of the three month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 and will not change as a percentage of lease revenue in future periods. Operating expenses consist principally of administrative charges, professional service costs, such as audit and legal fees, as well as printing, distribution and remarketing expenses. In certain cases, equipment storage or repairs and maintenance costs may be incurred in connection with equipment being remarketed. Collectively, operating expenses represented approximately 6.1% and 3.7% of lease revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The increase in operating expenses from 1994 to 1995 was due principally to a rise in professional service costs. The amount of future operating expenses cannot be predicted with certainty; however, such expenses are usually higher during the acquisition and liquidation phases of a partnership. Other fluctuations typically occur in relation to the volume and timing of remarketing activities. The relatively low inflation rates in 1995 and 1994 and the economic recession have caused some re-lease and sale proceeds to be lower than that which may have been achieved in a stronger economic environment. In other cases, the economic recession has had an adverse effect on the ability of certain lessees to fulfill all of their financial obligations under the leases. These factors will result in the investors achieving a rate-of-return lower than that anticipated at the Partnership's commencement date. Liquidity and Capital Resources and Discussion of Cash Flows The Partnership by its nature is a limited life entity which was established for specific purposes described in the preceding "Overview". As an equipment leasing program, the Partnership's principal operating activities derive from asset rental transactions. Accordingly, the Partnership's principal source of cash from operations is provided by the collection of periodic rents. These cash inflows are used to satisfy debt service obligations associated with leveraged leases, and to pay management fees and operating costs. Operating activities generated net cash inflows of $256,152 and $496,376 for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Future renewal, re-lease and equipment sale activities will cause a gradual decline in the Partnership's lease revenue and corresponding sources of operating cash. Overall, expenses associated with rental activities, such as management fees, and net cash flow from operating activities will decline as the Partnership experiences a higher frequency of remarketing events. Ultimately, the Partnership will dispose of all assets under lease. This will occur principally through sale transactions whereby each asset will be sold to the existing lessee or to a third party. Generally, this will occur upon expiration of each asset's primary or renewal/re-lease term. In certain instances, casualty or early termination events may result in the disposal of an asset. Such circumstances are infrequent and usually result in the collection of stipulated cash settlements pursuant to terms and conditions contained in the underlying lease agreements. Cash realized from asset disposal transactions is reported under investing activities on the accompanying Statement of Cash Flows. During the three months ended March 31, 1995, the Partnership realized $6,300 in equipment sale proceeds. There were no equipment sales during the three months ended March 31, 1994. Future inflows of cash from asset disposals will vary in timing and amount and will be influenced by many factors including, but not limited to, the frequency and timing of lease expirations, the type of equipment being sold, its condition and age, and future market conditions. The Partnership obtained long-term financing in connection with certain equipment leases. The repayments of principal related to such indebtedness are reported as a component of financing activities. Each note payable is recourse only to the specific equipment financed and to the minimum rental payments contracted to be received during the debt amortization period (which period generally coincides with the lease rental term). As rental payments are collected, a portion or all of the rental payment is used to repay the associated indebtedness. In future periods, the amount of cash used to repay debt obligations will decline as the principal balance of notes payable is reduced through the collection and application of rents. Cash distributions to the General and Limited Partners are declared and generally paid within fifteen days following the end of each calendar quarter. The payment of such distributions is presented as a component of financing activities. For the period ended March 31, 1995, the Partnership declared total cash distributions of Distributable Cash From Operations and Distributable Cash From Sales and Refinancings of $360,637. In accordance with the Amended and Restated Agreement and Certificate of Limited Partnership, the Limited Partners were allocated 99% of these distributions, or $357,031, and the General Partner was allocated 1%, or $3,606. The fourth quarter 1995 cash distribution was paid on April 14, 1995. Cash distributions paid to the Limited Partners consist of both a return of and a return on capital. To the extent that cash distributions consist of Cash From Sales or Refinancings, substantially all of such cash distributions should be viewed as a return of capital. Cash distributions do not represent and are not indicative of yield on investment. Actual yield on investment cannot be determined with any certainty until conclusion of the Partnership and will be dependent upon the collection of all future contracted rents, the generation of renewal and/or re-lease rents, and the residual value realized for each asset at its disposal date. Future market conditions, technological changes, the ability of AFG to manage and remarket the assets, and many other events and circumstances, could enhance or detract from individual asset yields and the collective performance of the Partnership's equipment portfolio. The future liquidity of the Partnership will be influenced by the foregoing and will be greatly dependent upon the collection of contractual rents and the outcome of residual activities. The General Partner anticipates that cash proceeds resulting from these sources will satisfy the Partnership's future expense obligations. However, the amount of cash available for distribution in future periods will fluctuate. Equipment lease expirations and asset disposals will cause the Partnership's net cash from operating activities to diminish over time; and equipment sale proceeds will vary in amount and period of realization. Accordingly, fluctuations in the level of quarterly cash distributions will occur during the life of the Partnership. AMERICAN INCOME 7 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP FORM 10-Q PART II.
