The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed financial statements. 6 7 IEA INCOME FUND X, L.P. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (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. (Continued) 7 8 IEA INCOME FUND X, L.P. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (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 accounting principles generally accepted in The United States of America ("GAAP") 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 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 September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 were as follows:
September 30, December 31, 2000 1999 ------------- ------------ Gross lease receivables $622,473 $518,979 Less: Direct operating payables and accrued expenses 222,224 154,207 Damage protection reserve 65,774 72,336 Base management fees payable 46,474 51,184 Reimbursed administrative expenses 22,150 8,958 Allowance for doubtful accounts 94,448 54,798 -------- -------- Net lease receivables $171,403 $177,496 ======== ========
(Continued) 8 9 IEA INCOME FUND X, L.P. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (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 and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was as follows:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended ------------------------------- ------------------------------- September 30, September 30, September 30, September 30, 2000 1999 2000 1999 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Rental revenue $ 406,950 $ 418,537 $1,278,706 $1,303,706 Less: Rental equipment operating expenses 72,895 121,075 322,042 388,640 Base management fees 28,724 29,064 85,526 90,019 Reimbursed administrative expenses 11,792 22,440 70,469 75,501 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- $ 293,539 $ 245,958 $ 800,669 $ 749,546 ========== ========== ========== ==========
(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 dry cargo marine containers. As of September 30, 2000, the Partnership operated 3,189 twenty-foot, 870 forty-foot and 77 forty-foot high-cube dry cargo marine 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 September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999. During the first nine months of 2000, the Registrant disposed of 553 containers as part of its ongoing container operations. At September 30, 2000, 79% 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 318 173 18 Master leases 2,264 504 44 ----- ----- ----- Subtotal 2,582 677 62 Containers off lease 607 193 15 ----- ----- ----- Total container fleet 3,189 870 77 ===== ===== =====
40-Foot 20-Foot 40-Foot High-Cube ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- Units % Units % Units % ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Total purchases 4,000 100% 1,150 100% 100 100% Less disposals 811 20% 280 24% 23 23% ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Remaining fleet at September 30, 2000 3,189 80% 870 76% 77 77% ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== =====
At September 30, 2000, the Registrant had $647,692 in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $291,386 from the cash balances at December 31, 1999. The Registrant's allowance for doubtful accounts increased from $54,798 at December 31, 1999 to $94,448 at September 30, 2000. This increase was attributable to the delinquent account receivable balances of approximately 16 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 recorded appropriate allowance. The Registrant disposed of 226 twenty-foot and 52 forty-foot dry cargo marine containers, as well as six forty-foot high cube dry cargo marine container during the third quarter of 2000, as compared to 25 twenty-foot and 15 forty-foot dry cargo marine containers during the same period in the prior year. These disposals resulted in a loss of $223,578 for the third quarter of 2000, as compared to a loss of $106,012 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 or loss on container disposals, which may fluctuate in subsequent periods. (Continued) 10 11 The Registrant's cash distribution from operations for the third quarter of 2000 was 4.50% (annualized) of the limited partners' original capital contribution, unchanged from the second quarter of 2000. These distributions are directly related to the Registrant's results from operations and may fluctuate accordingly. The cash distribution from sales proceeds for the third quarter of 2000 was 4.00% (annualized) of the limited partners' original capital contribution, an increase of 1.50% from the second quarter of 2000. Sales proceeds distributed to its partners may fluctuate in subsequent periods, reflecting the level of container disposals. 2) Material changes in the results of operations between the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1999. Net lease revenue for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 was $293,539 and $800,669, respectively, an increase of 19% and 7%, respectively, from the same three and nine-month periods in the prior year. Gross rental revenue (a component of net lease revenue) for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 was $406,950 and $1,278,706, respectively, a decrease of 3% and 2% from the respective three and nine-month periods in the prior year. Gross rental revenue was primarily impacted by higher utilization levels and lower per-diem rental rates. Average per-diem rental rates for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 declined 2% and 7%, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the prior year. The Registrant's average fleet size and utilization rates for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 were as follows:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended --------------------------- ---------------------------- September 30, September 30, September 30, September 30, 2000 1999 2000 1999 ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- Average fleet size (measured in twenty- 5,208 5,860 5,484 5,973 foot equivalent units (TEU)) Average Utilization 81% 76% 80% 72%
The age and declining size of the Registrant's fleet contributed to reductions in depreciation expense of 13% and 9%, respectively, when compared to the respective three and nine-month periods in the prior year. Rental equipment operating expenses during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 were 18% and 25%, respectively, of the Registrant's gross lease revenue, as compared to 29% and 30%, respectively, during the same three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1999. The large decrease for the three-month period ended September 30, 2000 was attributable to the recovery of doubtful accounts. The Registrant's declining fleet size and related operating results contributed to a decline in base management fees. Item 3.
