These funds were classified as deferred rental income on the Statement of Financial Position at December 31, 1996. During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership sold the equipment and such funds were recognized as sales proceeds. The Partnership sold its interest in a vessel on September 30, 1996. The Partnership received net sale proceeds of $944,213, a portion of which was used to repay the outstanding principal balance of notes payable related to this vessel of $102,818. The remainder, $841,395, was deposited into an escrow account and transferred to the Partnership on October 3, 1996. See also Results of Operations. The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 5 AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS V-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP Notes to the Financial Statements September 30, 1997 (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION - ------------------------------ The financial statements presented herein are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and the instructions for preparing Form 10-Q under Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission and are unaudited. As such, these financial statements do not include all information and footnote disclosures required under generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and, accordingly, the accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the footnotes presented in the 1996 Annual Report. Except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change to the information presented in the footnotes to the 1996 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 have been made and are reflected. NOTE 2 - CASH - ------------- At September 30, 1997, the Partnership had $1,515,000 invested in reverse repurchase agreements secured by U.S. Treasury Bills or interests in U.S. Government securities. NOTE 3 - REVENUE RECOGNITION - ---------------------------- Rents are payable to the Partnership monthly or quarterly and no significant amounts are calculated on factors other than the passage of time. The leases are accounted for as operating leases and are noncancellable. Rents received prior to their due dates are deferred. Future minimum rents of $577,091 are due as follows: For the year ending September 30, 1998 $ 453,296 1999 76,323 2000 31,648 2001 15,824 --------- Total $ 577,091 --------- --------- The Partnership entered into a new 18-month lease agreement with Transmeridian Airlines for its proportionate interest in a Boeing 727 Aircraft at a base rent to the Partnership of $4,800 per month for 8 months and $4,200 per month for 10 months, effective April 30, 1997. 6 AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS V-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued) NOTE 4 - EQUIPMENT - ------------------ The following is a summary of equipment owned by the Partnership at September 30, 1997. In the opinion of the Equis Financial Group Limited Partnership ("EFG"), the acquisition cost of the equipment did not exceed its fair market value.

At September 30, 1997, the Partnership was not holding any equipment not subject to a lease and no equipment was held for sale or re-lease. The summary above includes equipment being leased on a month-to-month basis. NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS - ----------------------------------- All operating expenses incurred by the Partnership are paid by EFG on behalf of the Partnership and EFG is reimbursed at its actual cost for such expenditures. Fees and other costs incurred during each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, which were paid or accrued by the Partnership to EFG or its Affiliates, are as follows: 1997 1996 ---------- -------- Equipment management fees $ 32,323 $ 136,077 Administrative charges 39,003 15,750 Reimbursable operating expenses due to third parties 139,092 111,302 --------- ------- Total $ 210,418 $ 263,129 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- 7 AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS V-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued) All rents and proceeds from the sale of equipment are paid directly to either EFG or to a lender. EFG temporarily deposits collected funds in a separate interest-bearing escrow account prior to remittance to the Partnership. At September 30, 1997, the Partnership was owed $187,430 by EFG for such funds and the interest thereon. These funds were remitted to the Partnership in October 1997. NOTE 6 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS - -------------------------- On June 24, 1997, four plaintiffs (the "Plaintiffs") owning limited partner units or beneficiary interests in eight investment programs sponsored by EFG filed a lawsuit, as a derivative action, on behalf of the Partnership and 27 other investment programs (collectively, the "Nominal Defendants") in the Superior Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for the County of Suffolk against EFG and certain of EFG's affiliates, including the General Partner of the Partnership and four other wholly-owned subsidiaries of EFG which are general partner or managing trustee of one or more of the investment programs, (collectively, the "Managing Defendants"), and certain other entities and individuals that have control of the Managing Defendants and the Nominal Defendants (the "Controlling Defendants"). The Plaintiffs assert claims of breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and equitable relief and seek various remedies, including compensatory and punitive damages to be determined at trial. The General Partner and EFG are in the early stages of evaluating the nature and extent of the claims asserted in this lawsuit and cannot predict its outcome with any degree of certainty. However, based upon all of the facts presently being considered by management, the General Partner and EFG do not believe that any likely outcome will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership. The General Partner, EFG and their affiliates intend to vigorously defend against the lawsuit. 8 AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS V-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP FORM 10-Q PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL - --------------------------------------------------------- CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. ------------------------------------ Certain statements in this quarterly report that are not historical fact constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties. There are a number of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made herein. These factors include, but are not limited to, the ability of EFG to collect all rents due under the attendant lease agreements and successfully remarket the Partnership's equipment upon the expiration of such leases. Three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the three and - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nine months ended September 30, 1996: - ------------------------------------- OVERVIEW - -------- The Partnership was organized in 1990 as a direct-participation equipment leasing program to acquire a diversified portfolio of capital equipment subject to lease agreements with third parties. The Partnership's stated investment objectives and policies contemplated that the Partnership would wind-up its operations within approximately seven years of its inception. Accordingly, the General Partner is pursuing the remarketing of all of the Partnership's remaining equipment. Currently, the General Partner anticipates that it will wind-up the operations of the Partnership and make a liquidating distribution to the Partners, net of any cash reserves which the General Partner may consider appropriate, possibly by December 31, 1998. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership recognized lease revenue of $240,513 and $818,458, respectively, compared to $1,366,710 and $2,767,075 for the same periods in 1996. The decrease in lease revenue from 1996 to 1997 was expected and resulted principally from renewal lease term expirations and the sale of equipment. Lease revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 included the receipt of $872,305 of lease termination rents received in connection with the sale of the Partnership's interest in two Boeing 727-Advanced aircraft in July 1996 (see discussion below). The Partnership also earns interest income from temporary investments of rental receipts and equipment sales proceeds in short-term instruments. 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 an affiliated equipment leasing program sponsored by EFG. 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. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership sold equipment having net book values of $146 and $78,990, respectively, to existing lessees and third parties. These sales resulted in net gains, for financial statement purposes, of $2,854 and $56,576, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Partnership sold equipment having a net book value of $2,478,497 and $2,516,783, respectively, to existing lessees and third parties. These sales resulted in net gains for financial statement purposes of $505,872 and $595,116, respectively. These equipment sales 9 AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS V-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP FORM 10-Q PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION included the sale of the Partnership's interest in two Boeing 727-Advanced jet aircraft with an original cost and net book value of $7,779,992 and $1,238,414, respectively, which the Partnership sold to the existing lessee in July 1996. In connection with this aircraft sale, the Partnership realized sale proceeds of $2,019,055, which resulted in a net gain, for financial statement purposes, of $780,641. This equipment was sold prior to the expiration of the related lease term, resulting in the receipt by the Partnership of lease termination rents, described above. In addition, equipment sales in 1996 included the Partnership's interest in a vessel with an original cost and net book value of $2,782,137 and $1,230,287, respectively, which the Partnership sold to a third party in September 1996. In connection with this sale, the Partnership realized net sale proceeds of $944,213, which resulted in a net loss, for financial statement purposes, of $286,074. This equipment was sold prior to the expiration of the related lease term. This sale was effected in connection with a joint remarketing effort involving 15 individual leasing programs sponsored by EFG, consisting of the Partnership and 14 affiliates. 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 EFG'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. EFG 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 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $124,071 and $400,895, respectively, compared to $232,101 and $936,326 for the same periods in 1996. 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 $4,587 or less than 1% of lease revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to $12,313 and $42,749, or 1% and 1.5% of lease revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively. The Partnership's notes payable were fully amortized during the first quarter of 1997. Management fees were 3.8% and 3.9% of lease revenue for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997, respectively, compared to 4.8% and 4.9% of lease revenue for the same periods in 1996. Management fees during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 included $7,731, resulting from an underaccrual in 1995. Management fees are based on 5% of gross lease revenue generated by operating leases and 2% of gross lease revenue generated by full payout leases. 10 AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS V-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP FORM 10-Q PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION 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. Significant operating expenses were incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 due to heavy maintenance and airframe overhaul costs incurred or accrued in connection with the Partnership's interests in two Boeing 727 aircraft. Certain of the costs incurred in the first quarter of 1996 were subsequently reimbursed by the former lessee of the related aircraft during the third quarter of 1996. In 1996, the Partnership entered into a new 36-month lease agreement with Sunworld International Airlines, Inc. to re-lease one of the aircraft. The second aircraft was re-leased to Transmeridian Airlines beginning April 1997 at a base rent to the Partnership of $4,800 per month for 8 months and $4,200 per month for 10 months. 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. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES AND DISCUSSION OF CASH FLOW - ----------------------------------------------------------- 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 generally 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 $583,503 and $2,617,909 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Net cash from operating activities in 1996 included lease termination rents of $872,305 received in connection with the aircraft sale discussed above. Future renewal, re-lease and equipment sale activities will cause a 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 also continue to 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 expended for equipment acquisitions and cash realized from asset disposal transactions are reported under investing activities on the accompanying Statement of Cash Flows. During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership realized $114,000 in equipment sale proceeds compared to $2,167,686 for the same period in 1996. In addition, the Partnership received $21,566 from a lessee prior to 1997 representing an equipment purchase option. These funds were classified as deferred rental income on the Statement of Financial Position at December 31, 1996. During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership sold the equipment and such funds were recognized as equipment sale proceeds. At September 30, 1996, cash in the amount of $841,395, representing the net sales proceeds resulting from the Partnership's sale of its interest in a vessel less an associated debt repayment, were escrowed and transferred to the Partnership on October 3, 1996. 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. During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the 11 AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS V-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP FORM 10-Q PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION Partnership expended $65,700 to replace certain aircraft engines to facilitate the re-lease of an aircraft to Transmeridian Airlines, discussed above. There were no equipment acquisitions during the same period in 1997. 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. The Partnership's notes payable were fully amortized during the first quarter of 1997. Cash distributions to the General Partner and Recognized Owners 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 nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership declared total cash distributions of Distributable Cash From Operations and Distributable Cash From Sales and Refinancings of $330,552. In accordance with the Amended and Restated Agreement and Certificate of Limited Partnership, the Recognized Owners were allocated 95% of these distributions, or $314,024, and the General Partner was allocated 5%, or $16,528. The third quarter 1997 cash distribution was paid on October 14, 1997. Cash distributions paid to the Recognized Owners consist of both a return of and a return on 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 EFG 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. In addition, the Partnership may be required to incur asset refurbishment or upgrade costs in connection with future remarketing activities. Accordingly, fluctuations in the level of future quarterly cash distributions are anticipated. 12 AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS V-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP FORM 10-Q PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
