The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 6 7 CRONOS GLOBAL INCOME FUND XIV, L.P. NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Nature of Operations Cronos Global Income Fund XIV, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of California on July 30, 1992, for the purpose of owning and leasing marine cargo containers. Cronos Capital Corp. ("CCC") is the general partner and, with its affiliate Cronos Containers Limited (the "Leasing Company"), manages the business of the Partnership. The Partnership shall continue until December 31, 2012, unless sooner terminated upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership commenced operations on January 29, 1993 when the minimum subscription proceeds of $2,000,000 were obtained. As of March 31, 1998, the Partnership operated 8,290 twenty-foot, 3,551 forty-foot and 98 forty-foot high-cube marine dry cargo containers as well as 454 twenty-foot and 339 forty-foot refrigerated cargo containers. The Partnership offered 4,250,000 units of limited partnership interests at $20 per unit, or $85,000,000. The offering terminated on November 30, 1993, at which time 2,984,309 limited partnership units had been purchased. (b) Leasing Company and Leasing Agent Agreement The Partnership 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 and the Leasing Company. 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. (Continued) 7 8 CRONOS GLOBAL INCOME FUND XIV, L.P. NOTES TO UNAUDITED 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 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. 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 period 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, 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, 1998 and December 31, 1997 were as follows:
March 31, December 31, 1998 1997 ---------- ---------- Lease receivables, net of doubtful accounts of $130,630 at March 31, 1998 and $97,733 at December 31, 1997 $1,946,311 $1,876,135 Less: Direct operating payables and accrued expenses 472,296 502,312 Damage protection reserve 154,920 115,850 Base management fees 179,784 183,596 Reimbursed administrative expenses 36,218 38,362 ---------- ---------- $1,103,093 $1,036,015 ========== ==========
(Continued) 8 9 CRONOS GLOBAL INCOME FUND XIV, L.P. NOTES TO UNAUDITED 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 and its affiliates 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, 1998 and 1997 was as follows:
Three Months Ended -------------------------- March 31, March 31, 1998 1997 ---------- ---------- Rental revenue $2,007,676 $2,018,848 Less: Rental equipment operating expenses 422,379 548,885 Base management fees 138,970 140,350 Reimbursed administrative expenses 138,159 109,262 ---------- ---------- $1,308,168 $1,220,351 ========== ==========
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, 1998 and December 31, 1997. At March 31, 1998, the Registrant had $1,623,157 in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $46,438 from the December 31, 1997 cash balances. At March 31, 1998, the Registrant had approximately $212,000 in cash generated from equipment sales reserved as part of its cash balances. Throughout the remainder of 1998, the Registrant expects to continue using cash generated from equipment sales to purchase and replace containers which have been lost or damaged beyond repair. The Registrant's cash distribution from operations for the first quarter of 1998 was 8.0% (annualized) of the limited partners' original capital contributions, unchanged from the fourth quarter of 1997. These distributions are directly related to the Registrant's results from operations and may fluctuate accordingly. Market conditions that existed during 1997 persisted through the first quarter of 1998. Low container prices, favorable interest rates and the abundance of available capital continued to discourage ocean carriers and other transport companies from leasing containers at levels comparable to previous years. By the end of 1997, the volatility of the Hong Kong and other Asian financial markets began to negatively impact trade, shipping and container leasing. As a result, the Registrant's dry cargo and refrigerated container utilization rates declined from 82% and 84%, respectively, at December 31, 1997 to 78% and 79%, respectively, at March 31, 1998. Per-diem rental rates continued to remain under pressure as a result of the following factors: start-up leasing companies offering new containers and low rental rates in an effort to break into the leasing market; established leasing companies reducing rates to very low levels; and a continuing oversupply of containers. These leasing market conditions impacted the Registrant's financial condition and operating performance during the first quarter of 1998. 2) Material changes in the results of operations between the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 and the three-month period ended March 31, 1997. Net lease revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 was $1,308,168, an increase of approximately 7% from the same period in the prior year. Gross rental revenue (a component of net lease revenue) for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 was $2,007,676, reflecting a decline of 1% from the same period in the prior year. Gross lease revenue was primarily impacted by lower per-diem rental rates and utilization levels. Dry cargo container average per-diem rental rates for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 declined approximately 9%, when compared to the same period in the prior year. Refrigerated container average per-diem rental rates for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 increased approximately 2%, when compared to the same period in the prior year. 10 11 The Registrant's average fleet size and utilization rates for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 were as follows:
Three Months Ended ----------------------- March 31, March 31, 1998 1997 --------- ---------- Average fleet size (measured in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU)) Dry cargo containers 15,602 15,477 Refrigerated containers 1,132 1,142 Average Utilization Dry cargo containers 79% 78% Refrigerated containers 82% 77%
Rental equipment operating expenses were 21% of the Registrant's gross lease revenue during the three-month period ended March 31, 1998, as compared to 27% during the three-month period ended March 31, 1997. These changes were largely attributable to a decrease in costs associated with higher utilization levels, including handling and storage. The Registrant disposed of 20 twenty-foot and six forty-foot dry cargo containers during the first quarter of 1998, as compared to seven twenty-foot and one forty-foot dry cargo containers, as well as one forty-foot refrigerated container during the same period in the prior year. The decision to repair or dispose of a container is made when it is returned by a lessee. This decision is influenced by various factors including the age, condition, suitability for continued leasing, as well as the geographical location of the container when disposed. These factors also influence the amount of sales proceeds received and the related gain on container disposals. As reported in the Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K and Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on February 7, 1997 and February 26, 1997, respectively, Arthur Andersen, London, England, resigned as auditors of The Cronos Group, a Luxembourg Corporation headquartered in Orchard Lea, England (The "Parent Company"), on February 3, 1997. The Parent Company is the indirect corporate parent of CCC, the General Partner of the Registrant. In its letter of resignation to the Parent Company, Arthur Andersen stated that it resigned as auditors of the Parent Company and all other entities affiliated with the Parent Company. While its letter of resignation was not addressed to CCC, Arthur Andersen confirmed to CCC that its resignation as auditors of the entities referred to in its letter of resignation included its resignation as auditors of CCC and the Registrant. CCC does not believe, based upon the information currently available to it, that Arthur Andersen's resignation was triggered by any concern over the accounting policies and procedures followed by the Registrant. Arthur Andersen's report on the financial statements of CCC and the Registrant, for years preceding 1996, has not contained an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was any such report qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the Registrant's 1995 fiscal year and the subsequent interim period preceding Arthur Andersen's resignation, there were no disagreements between CCC or the Registrant and Arthur Andersen on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure. The Registrant retained a new auditor, Moore Stephens, P.C. on April 10, 1997, as reported in its Current Report on Form 8-K, filed April 14, 1997. 11 12 In connection with its resignation, Arthur Andersen also prepared a report pursuant to the provisions of Section 10A(b)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for filing by the Parent Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Following the report of Arthur Andersen, the SEC, on February 10, 1997, commenced a private investigation of the Parent Company for the purpose of investigating the matters discussed in such report and related matters. The Registrant does not believe that the focus of the SEC's investigation is upon the Registrant or CCC. CCC is unable to predict the outcome of the SEC's ongoing private investigation of the Parent Company. In 1993, the Parent Company negotiated a credit facility (herinafter, the "Credit Facility") with several banks for the use of the Parent Company and its affiliates, including CCC. At December 31, 1996, approximately $73,500,000 in principal indebtedness was outstanding under the Credit Facility. As a party to the Credit Facility, CCC is jointly and severally liable for the repayment of all principal and interest owed under the Credit Facility. The obligations of CCC, and the five other subsidiaries of the Parent Company that are borrowers under the Credit Facility, are guaranteed by the Parent Company. Following negotiations in 1997 with the banks providing the Credit Facility, an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was executed in June 1997, subject to various actions being taken by the Parent Company and its subsidiaries, primarily relating to the provision of additional collateral. This Agreement was further amended in July 1997 and the provisions of the Agreement and its Amendment converted the facility to a term loan, payable in installments, with a final maturity date of May 31, 1998. At December 31, 1997, approximately $37,600,000 was outstanding under the Credit Facility. The terms of the Agreement and its Amendment also provide for additional security over shares in the subsidiary of the Parent Company that owns the head office of the Parent Company's container leasing operations. They also provided for the loans to Stefan M. Palatin, the Chairman of the Parent Company (the "Chairman") and its Chief Executive Officer (and a Director of CCC), of approximately $5,990,000 and $3,700,000 (totaling approximately $9,690,000) to be restructured as obligations of the Chairman to another subsidiary of the Parent Company. These obligations have been collaterally assigned to the lending banks, together with the pledge of 1,000,000 shares of the Parent Company's Common Stock owned by the Chairman. These 1,000,000 shares represent 11% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Parent Company as of December 31, 1997. The shares of the Parent Company are traded on NASDAQ (CRNSF). (The Chairman, including the 1,000,000 shares pledged to the banks, owns approximately 55% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Parent Company as of December 31, 1997). Additionally, CCC granted the lending banks a security interest in the fees to which it is entitled for the services it renders to the container leasing partnerships of which it acts as general partner, including its fee income payable by the Registrant. The lending banks have indicated that they will not renew the Credit Facility, and the Parent Company has yet to secure a source for repayment of the balance due under the Credit Facility at May 31, 1998. CCC is currently in discussions with the management of the Parent Company to provide assurance that the management of the container leasing partnerships managed by CCC, including the Registrant, is not disrupted pending a refinancing or reorganization of the indebtedness of the Parent Company and its affiliates. The Registrant is not a borrower under the Credit Facility, and neither the containers nor the other assets of the Registrant have been pledged as collateral under the Credit Facility. The Registrant is unable to determine the impact, if any, these concerns may have on the future operating results and financial condition of the Registrant or CCC and the Leasing Company's ability to manage the Registrant's fleet in subsequent periods. 12 13 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. The Registrant has received confirmation from its third-party investor processing/maintenance vendor that their system is Year 2000 compliant. The Registrant does not expect a material increase in it vendor servicing fee to reimburse Year 2000 costs. Container leasing/asset tracking and accounting/finance services are provided to the Registrant by CCC and its affiliate, Cronos Containers Limited (the "Leasing Company"), pursuant to the respective Limited Partnership Agreement and Leasing Agent Agreement. CCC and the Leasing Company have initiated a program to prepare their systems and applications for the Year 2000. Preliminary studies indicate that testing, conversion and upgrading of system applications is expected to cost CCC and the Leasing Company less than $500,000. 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. The financial impact of making these required system changes is not expected to be material to the Registrant's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Cautionary Statement This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements relating to future results of the Registrant, including certain projections and business trends, that are "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from those projected as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to changes in: economic conditions; trade policies; demand for and market acceptance of leased marine cargo containers; competitive utilization and per-diem rental rate pressures; as well as other risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those described in the above discussion of the marine container leasing business under Item 2., Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; and those detailed from time to time in the filings of Registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 13 14 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
