The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed financial statements. 6 7 IEA INCOME FUND X, L.P. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Nature of Operations IEA Income Fund X, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of California on July 18, 1989 for the purpose of owning and leasing marine cargo containers worldwide to ocean carriers. To this extent, the Partnership's operations are subject to the fluctuations of world economic and political conditions. Such factors may affect the pattern and levels of world trade. The Partnership believes that the profitability of, and risks associated with, leases to foreign customers is generally the same as those of leases to domestic customers. The Partnership's leases generally require all payments to be made in United States currency. Cronos Capital Corp. ("CCC") is the general partner and, with its affiliate Cronos Containers Limited (the "Leasing Company"), manages the business of the Partnership. CCC and the Leasing Company also manage the container leasing business for other partnerships affiliated with the general partner. The Partnership shall continue until December 31, 2010, unless sooner terminated upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership commenced operations on January 17, 1990, 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 October 30, 1990, at which time 39,206 limited partnership units had been purchased. (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 one 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 condensed financial statements. 7 8 IEA INCOME FUND X, L.P. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED 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 condensed 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 condensed 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (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. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. (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, and reimbursed administrative expenses 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 March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 were as follows:
March 31, December 31, 2000 1999 ------------- ------------- Gross lease receivables $ 579,382 $ 518,979 Less: Direct operating payables and accrued expenses 207,841 154,207 Damage protection reserve 71,452 72,336 Base management fees payable 43,882 51,184 Reimbursed administrative expenses 18,028 8,958 Allowance for doubtful accounts 86,984 54,798 ------------- ------------- Net lease receivables $ 151,195 $ 177,496 ============= =============
8 9 IEA INCOME FUND X, L.P. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (3) Net Lease Revenue Net lease revenue is determined by deducting direct operating expenses, base management fees and reimbursed administrative expenses 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-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was as follows:
Three Months Ended ------------------------ March 31, March 31, 2000 1999 --------- --------- Rental revenue (note 4) $ 437,758 $ 462,740 Less: Rental equipment operating expenses 135,497 128,603 Base management fees 28,035 32,171 Reimbursed administrative expenses 30,690 26,365 --------- --------- $ 243,536 $ 275,601 ========= =========
(4) Operating Segment The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," which changes the way public business enterprises report financial and descriptive information about reportable operating segments. An operating segment is a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and about which separate financial information is available. Management operates the Partnership's container fleet as a homogenous unit and has determined, after considering the requirements of SFAS No. 131, that as such it has a single reportable operating segment. The Partnership derives its revenues from marine dry cargo containers. As of March 31, 2000, the Partnership operated 3,526 twenty-foot, 948 forty-foot and 84 forty-foot high-cube marine dry cargo containers. Due to the Partnership's lack of information regarding the physical location of its fleet of containers when on lease in the global shipping trade, it is impracticable to provide the geographic area information required by SFAS No. 131. ****** 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 March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999. During the first three months of 2000, the Registrant disposed of 131 containers as part of its ongoing container operations. At March 31, 2000, 87% of the original equipment remained in the Registrant's fleet, as compared to 89% at December 31, 1999, and was comprised of the following:
40-Foot 20-Foot 40-Foot High-Cube --------- --------- --------- Containers on lease: Term leases 305 220 19 Master leases 2,532 526 48 --------- --------- --------- Subtotal 2,837 746 67 Containers off lease 689 202 17 --------- --------- --------- Total container fleet 3,526 948 84 ========= ========= =========
40-Foot 20-Foot 40-Foot High-Cube ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- Units % Units % Units % ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Total purchases 4,000 100% 1,150 100% 100 100% Less disposals 474 12% 202 18% 16 16% ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Remaining fleet at March 31, 2000 3,526 88% 948 82% 84 84% ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== =====
At March 31, 2000, the Registrant had $428,027 in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $71,721 from the cash balances at December 31, 1999. The Registrant's allowance for doubtful accounts increased from $54,798 at December 31, 1999 to $86,984 at March 31, 2000. This increase was attributable to the delinquent account receivable balances of approximately 11 lessees. The Leasing Company has either negotiated specific payment terms with these lessees or is pursuing other alternatives to collect the outstanding balances. In each instance, the Registrant believes it has provided sufficient reserves for all doubtful accounts. The Registrant disposed of 99 twenty-foot and 32 forty-foot marine dry cargo containers during the first quarter of 2000, as compared to 70 twenty-foot and 39 forty-foot marine dry cargo containers, as well as one forty-foot high-cube marine dry cargo container during the same period in the prior year. These disposals resulted in a loss of $50,586 for the first quarter of 2000, as compared to a loss of $83,918 for the same period in the prior year. The Registrant does not believe that the carrying amount of its containers has been permanently impaired or that events or changes in circumstances have indicated that the carrying amount of its containers may not be fully recoverable. The Registrant believes that the loss on container disposals was a result of various factors including the age, condition, suitability for continued leasing, as well as the geographical location of the containers when disposed. These factors will continue to influence the amount of sales proceeds received and the related gain on container disposals, which may fluctuate in subsequent periods. 10 11 The Registrant's cash distribution from operations for the first quarter of 2000 was 4.50% (annualized) of the limited partners' original capital contribution, a decrease from the 4.75% (annualized) in the fourth quarter of 1999. These distributions are directly related to the Registrant's results from operations and may fluctuate accordingly. The cash distribution from sales proceeds for the first quarter of 2000 was 2.0% (annualized) of the limited partners' original capital contribution, an increase of 0.25% from the fourth quarter of 1999. Sales proceeds distributed to its partners may fluctuate in subsequent periods, reflecting the level of container disposals. In order to take advantage of improving market conditions and stronger demand for leased containers, the Registrant undertook a strategy that was aimed at significantly reducing its inventory of idle equipment in some low-demand locations while, at the same time, fulfilling lessee container requirements. As part of this strategy, the Registrant offered leasing incentives to several lessees for picking up off-hire equipment from the Registrant's higher inventory areas. This not only resulted in stronger utilization of the Registrant's equipment, but it also significantly lowered Partnership expenses related to storage and handling. 2) Material changes in the results of operations between the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 and the three-month period ended March 31, 1999. Net lease revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 was $243,536, a decline of 12% from the same three-month period in the prior year. Gross rental revenue (a component of net lease revenue) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 was $437,758, a decline of 5% from the same period in the prior year. Gross rental revenue was primarily impacted by lower per-diem rental rates. Average per-diem rental rates declined 12% when compared to the same period in the prior year. The Registrant's average fleet size and utilization rates for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 were as follows:
Three Months Ended -------------------------- March 31, March 31, 2000 1999 --------- --------- Average fleet size (measured in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU)) 5,685 6,097 Average utilization 79% 70%
The age and declining size of the Registrant's fleet contributed to a 7% decline in depreciation expense when compared to the same three-month period in the prior year. Rental equipment operating expenses were 31% of the Registrant's gross lease revenue during the three-month period ended March 31, 2000, as compared to 28% during the three-month period ended March 31, 1999. The Registrant's declining fleet size and related operating results contributed to a decline in base management fees. YEAR 2000 The Registrant relies upon the financial and operational systems provided by the Leasing Company and its affiliates, as well as the systems provided by other independent third parties to service the three primary areas of its business: investor processing/maintenance; container leasing/asset tracking; and accounting/finance. Neither the Registrant nor the Leasing Company experienced nor do they currently anticipate any material adverse effects on the Registrant's business, results of operations or financial condition as a result of Year 2000 issues involving internal use systems, third party products or any of their software products. Costs incurred in preparing for Year 2000 issues were expensed as incurred. Neither the Registrant nor the Leasing Company anticipate any additional material costs in connection with Year 2000 uncertainties. Pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement, CCC or the Leasing Company, may not seek reimbursement of data processing costs associated with the Year 2000 program. Item 3.
