PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
For more detailed information about the Registrant's business, see "Business of
the Partnership" in the Registrant's Prospectus as supplemented.
(a) General Development of Business
The Registrant is a California Limited Partnership formed on July 15,
1993 to purchase, own, operate, lease, and sell equipment used in the
containerized cargo shipping industry. The Registrant commenced
offering units representing limited partnership interests (Units) to
the public on May 1, 1994 in accordance with its Registration Statement
and ceased to offer such Units as of April 29, 1996. The Registrant
raised a total of $89,305,000 from the offering and invested a
substantial portion of the money raised in equipment. The Registrant
has since engaged in leasing this and other equipment in the
international shipping industry.
See Item 10 herein for a description of the Registrant's General
Partners. See Item 7 herein for a description of current market
conditions affecting the Registrant's business.
(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments
Inapplicable.
(c) Narrative Description of Business
(c)(1)(i) A container leasing company generally, and the Registrant
specifically, is an operating business comparable to a rental
car business. A customer can lease a car from a bank leasing
department for a monthly charge which represents the cost of
the car, plus interest, amortized over the term of the lease;
or the customer can rent the same car from a rental car
company at a much higher daily lease rate. The customer is
willing to pay the higher daily rate for the convenience
and value-added features provided by the rental car company,
the most important of which is the ability to pick up the car
where it is most convenient, use it for the desired period
of time, and then drop it off at a location convenient to
the customer. Rental car companies compete with one another
on the basis of lease rates, availability of cars, and the
provision of additional services. They generate revenues by
maintaining the highest lease rates and the highest
utilization factors that market conditions will allow, and by
augmenting this income with proceeds from sales of insurance,
drop-off fees, and other special charges. A large percentage
of lease revenues earned by car rental companies are generated
under corporate rate agreements wherein, for a stated period
of time, employees of a participating corporation can rent
cars at specific terms, conditions and rental rates.
Container leasing companies and the Registrant operate in a
similar manner by owning a worldwide fleet of new and used
transportation containers and leasing these containers to
international shipping companies hauling various types of
goods among numerous trade routes. All lessees pay a daily
rental rate and in certain markets may pay special handling
fees and/or drop-off charges. In addition to these fees and
charges, a lessee must either provide physical damage and
liability insurance or purchase a damage waiver from the
Registrant, in which case the Registrant agrees to pay the
cost of repairing any physical damage to containers caused by
lessees. Container leasing companies compete with one another
on the basis of lease rates, availability of equipment and
services provided. To ensure the availability of equipment to
its customers, container leasing companies and the Registrant
may pay to reposition containers from low demand locations to
higher demand locations. By maintaining the highest lease
rates and the highest equipment utilization factors allowed by
market conditions, the Registrant attempts to generate revenue
and profit. The majority of the Registrant's equipment is
leased under master leases, which are comparable to the
corporate rate agreements used by rental car companies. The
master leases provide that the lessee, for a specified period
of time, may rent containers at specific terms, conditions and
rental rates. Although the terms of the master lease governing
each container under lease do not vary, the number of
containers in use can vary from time to time within the term
of the master lease. The terms and conditions of the master
lease provide that the lessee pays a daily rental rate for the
entire time the container is in his possession (whether or not
he is actively using it), is responsible for any damage, and
must insure the container against liabilities. For a more
detailed discussion of the leases for the Registrant's
equipment, see "Leasing Policy" under "Business of the
Partnership" in the Registrant's Prospectus as supplemented.
The Registrant also sells containers in the course of its
business as opportunities arise, at the end of the container's
useful life or if market and economic considerations indicate
that a sale would be beneficial. See "Business of the
Partnership" in Registrant's Prospectus, as supplemented.

(c)(1)(viii) Inapplicable.
(c)(1)(ix) Inapplicable.
(c)(1)(x) There are approximately 80 container leasing companies of
which the top ten control approximately 91% of the total
equipment held by all container leasing companies. The top
two container leasing companies combined control approximately
36% of the total equipment held by all container leasing
companies. Textainer Equipment Management Limited, an
Associate General Partner of the Registrant and the manager
of its marine container equipment, is the third largest
container leasing company and manages approximately 13% of
the equipment held by all container leasing companies. The
customers for leased containers are primarily international
shipping lines. The Registrant alone is not a material
participant in the worldwide container leasing market. The
principal methods of competition are price, availability and
the provision of worldwide service to the international
shipping community. Competition in the container leasing
market has increased over the past few years. Since 1996,
shipping alliances and other operational consolidations
among shipping lines have allowed shipping lines to begin
operating with fewer containers, thereby decreasing the
demand for leased containers. Furthermore, primarily as a
result of lower new container prices and low interest rates,
shipping lines now own, rather than lease, a higher percentage
of containers. The decrease in demand from shipping lines,
along with the entry of new leasing company competitors
offering low container rental rates, has increased competition
among container lessors such as the Registrant.

(c)(1)(xii) Inapplicable.
(c)(1)(xiii) The Registrant has no employees. Textainer Capital Corporation
(TCC), the Managing General Partner of the Registrant, is
responsible for the overall management of the business of the
Registrant and at December 31, 1999 had 4 employees. Textainer
Equipment Management Limited (TEM), an Associate General
Partner, is responsible for the management of the leasing
operations of the Registrant and at December 31, 1999 had a
total of 164 employees.
(d) Financial Information about Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export
Sales.
The Registrant is involved in the leasing of shipping containers to
international shipping companies for use in world trade and
approximately 14%, 20% and 12% of the Registrant's rental revenue
during the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively,
was derived from operations sourced or terminated domestically. These
percentages do not reflect the proportion of the Partnership's income
from operations generated domestically or in domestic waterways.
Substantially all of the Partnership's income from operations is
derived from assets employed in foreign operations. See "Business of
the Partnership", and for a discussion of the risks of leasing
containers for use in world trade, "Risk Factors" in the Registrant's
Prospectus, as supplemented.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
As of December 31, 1999, the Registrant owned the following types and quantities
of equipment:
20-foot standard dry freight containers 9,921
40-foot standard dry freight containers 10,062
40-foot high cube dry freight containers 3,827
-------
23,810

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
(Amounts in thousands except for unit and per unit amounts)
The Financial Statements contain information that will assist in evaluating the
financial condition of the Partnership for the years ended December 31, 1999,
1998 and 1997. Please refer to the Financial Statements and Notes thereto in
connection with the following discussion.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
From May 1, 1994 until April 29, 1996, the Partnership offered limited
partnership interests to the public. The Partnership received its minimum
subscription amount of $5,000 on August 23, 1994 and on April 29, 1996 the
Partnership's offering of limited partnership interests was closed at $89,305.
From time to time, the Partnership redeems units from limited partners for a
specified redemption value, which is set by formula. Up to 2% of the
Partnership's outstanding units may be redeemed each year, although the 2% limit
may be exceeded at the Managing General Partner's discretion. All redemptions
are subject to the Managing General Partner's good faith determination that
payment for the redeemed units will not (i) cause the Partnership to be taxed as
a corporation, (ii) impair the capital or operations of the Partnership, or
(iii) impair the ability of the Partnership to pay distributions in accordance
with its distribution policy. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the
Partnership did not redeem any units.
The Partnership invests working capital, cash flow from operations prior to its
distribution to the partners and proceeds from container sales that have not
been used to purchase containers in short-term, liquid investments. The
Partnership's cash is affected by cash provided by or used in operating,
investing and financing activities. These activities are discussed in detail
below.
Limited partners are currently receiving monthly distributions in an annualized
amount equal to 7% of their original investment. During the year ended December
31, 1999, the Partnership declared cash distributions to limited partners
pertaining to the period from December 1998 through November 1999, in the amount
of $6,459. On a cash basis, $6,228 of these distributions were from current year
operating activities and the remainder was from cash provided by previous years'
operations that had not been distributed or used to purchase containers or
redeem units. On a GAAP basis, $5,350 of these distributions was a return of
capital and the balance was from net earnings.
At December 31, 1999, the Partnership had no commitments to purchase containers.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the years ended December 31, 1999
and 1998 was $6,228 and $8,999, respectively. The decrease of $2,771, or 31%,
was primarily attributable to the decrease in net earnings, adjusted for
non-cash transactions, and the fluctuation in accounts receivable, offset by the
fluctuation in due from affiliates, net. Net earnings, adjusted for non-cash
transactions, decreased primarily due to the decline in rental income and the
increase in direct container expenses. The reasons for these fluctuations are
discussed in "Results of Operations". The increase in accounts receivable of $94
for the year ended December 31, 1999 was primarily due to the increase in the
average collection period of accounts receivable, offset by the decrease in
rental income. The decrease in accounts receivable of $579 for the comparable
period in 1998 was primarily due to the decrease in the average collection
period of accounts receivable. The fluctuations in due from affiliate, net,
resulted from timing differences in the payment of expenses and fees and the
remittance of net rental revenues.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, net cash provided by investing activities
(the purchase and sale of containers) was $708, compared to net cash used in
investing activities of $18 for the comparable period ended 1998. The
fluctuation of $726 was due to the increase in proceeds from container sales and
the decrease in container purchases. Proceeds from container sales increased
primarily due to the Partnership selling more damaged containers located in low
demand locations during the year ended December 31, 1999 than the same period in
1998, as discussed below in "Results of Operations", offset by the lower average
sales prices received on container sales in 1999. The sales prices received on
these container sales decreased as a result of current market conditions, which
have adversely affected the value of used containers. The Partnership sells
containers when (i) a container reaches the end of its useful life or (ii) an
analysis indicates that the sale is warranted based on existing market
conditions and the container's age, location and condition. Until conditions
improve in these low demand locations, the Partnership plans to continue to sell
damaged containers there and may sell other containers as well. Proceeds from
container sales will fluctuate based on the number of containers sold and the
actual price received on the sale.
Consistent with its investment objectives, the Partnership intends to continue
to reinvest available cash from operations, after distributions and redemptions,
and all or a significant amount of the proceeds from container sales in
additional containers. However, during the year ended December 31, 1999, the
Partnership did not reinvest any cash from operations in new containers, after
making distributions, due to the effect of market conditions on the
Partnership's financial results. Market conditions have had and are expected to
continue to have an adverse effect on the amount of cash provided by operations
that is available for the purchase of additional containers, after making
distributions, which has resulted in lower than anticipated reinvestment in
containers. Additionally, these market conditions have had an adverse effect on
the average sales price recently realized from container sales. Furthermore, to
the extent new containers are purchased with sales proceeds, they are not likely
to equal the number of containers sold, as new container prices are likely to be
greater than the average sales price of containers sold. These factors have
contributed to a lower than anticipated rate of reinvestment. The rate of
reinvestment is also affected by distributions and redemptions, which are
determined by the General Partners in accordance with the Partnership
Aggreement. Market conditions are discussed more fully under "Results of
Operations". A slower rate of reinvestment will, over time, affect the size
of the Partnership's container fleet.
Results of Operations
The Partnership's income from operations, which consists primarily of rental
income, container depreciation, direct container expenses, management fees, and
reimbursement of administrative expenses was directly related to the size of the
container fleet during the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, as well
as certain other factors as discussed below. The following is a summary of the
container fleet (in units) available for lease during those periods:
1999 1998 1997
---- ---- ----
Beginning container fleet............... 24,165 24,288 23,952
Ending container fleet.................. 23,810 24,165 24,288
Average container fleet................. 23,988 24,227 24,120
The decline in the average container fleet of 1% from the year ended December
31, 1998 to the comparable period in 1999 was due to the Partnership having sold
more containers than it purchased since December 31, 1998. Although some of the
sales proceeds were used to purchase additional containers, fewer containers
were bought than sold, resulting in a net decrease in the size of the container
fleet. As noted above, when containers are sold, sales proceeds are not likely
to be sufficient to replace all of the containers sold. This trend, which is
expected to continue, has contributed to a slower rate of reinvestment than had
been expected by the General Partners. Other factors related to this trend are
discussed above in "Liquidity and Capital Resources".
Rental income and direct container expenses are also affected by the average
utilization of the container fleet, which was 76%, 83% and 84% during the years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. In addition, rental income
is affected by daily rental rates.
The following is a comparative analysis of the results of operations for the
years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.
The Partnership's income from operations for the years ended December 31, 1999
and 1998 was $1,252 and $3,690, respectively, on rental income of $12,031 and
$14,265, respectively. The decrease in rental income of $2,234, or 16%, from the
year ended December 31, 1998 to the comparable period in 1999 was attributable
to decreases in income from container rentals and other rental income, which is
discussed below. Income from containers rentals, the major component of total
revenue, decreased $1,998, or 16%, primarily due to the decreases in the average
on-hire utilization of 8% and average rental rates of 5%.
The Partnership's income from operations for the years ended December 31, 1998
and 1997 was $3,690 and $3,853, respectively, on rental income of $14,265 and
$14,012, respectively. The increase in rental income of $253, or 2%, from the
year ended December 31, 1997 to the comparable period in 1998 was attributable
to an increase in other rental income, offset by a decrease in income from
container rentals. Income from containers rentals, decreased $282, or 2%,
primarily due to the decreases in the average rental rates of 4% and average
on-hire utilization of 1%.
Since 1996, the container leasing industry has been adversely affected by lower
demand for leased containers, increased competition and a trade imbalance, which
have resulted in declining utilization and rental rates and increased costs.
Demand for leased containers decreased due to changes in the business of
shipping line customers as a result of (i) over-capacity resulting from the
additions of new, larger ships to the existing container ship fleet at a rate in
excess of the growth rate in containerized cargo trade; (ii) shipping line
alliances and other operational consolidations that have allowed shipping lines
to operate with fewer containers; and (iii) shipping lines purchasing containers
to take advantage of low prices and favorable interest rates.
The entry of new leasing company competitors offering low container rental rates
to shipping lines resulted in downward pressure on rental rates, and caused
leasing companies to offer higher leasing incentives and other discounts to
shipping lines. The decline in the purchase price of new containers during this
period and excess industry capacity have also caused additional downward
pressure on rental rates.
The weakening of many Asian currencies in 1998 resulted in a significant
increase in exports from Asia to North America and Europe and a corresponding
decrease in imports into Asia from North America and Europe. This trade
imbalance created a weak demand for containers in North America and Europe and a
strong demand for containers in Asia, which resulted in a decline in leasing
incentives in Asia, but contributed to a further decline in average utilization
and rental rates for the fleet managed by TEM. This imbalance has also resulted
in an unusually high build-up of containers in lower demand locations. To
alleviate the container build-up, the Partnership has repositioned newer
containers to higher demand locations. However, as a result of this effort, the
Partnership has incurred increased direct container expenses during 1998 and
1999. The Partnership has sold some containers located in lower demand
locations, but primarily only those containers that were damaged.
Current market conditions have also caused a decline in the economic value of
used containers, and the average sales price on container sales received by the
Partnership decreased. The decline in economic value of certain containers owned
by other owners resulted in write-downs and losses being recorded on certain
older containers. These containers, managed by TEM and located in lower demand
locations, were identified as being for sale as the expected economic benefit of
continuing to own these containers was significantly less than that of newer
containers, primarily due to their shorter remaining marine life, the cost to
reposition containers and shipping lines' preference for leasing newer
containers. There have been no such losses or write downs recorded by the
Partnership primarily due to the young age of the Partnership's container fleet.
Sales by the Partnership in these low demand locations have been generally
limited to damaged containers. However, as the container fleet ages, the
Partnership may incur losses and/or write downs on the sale of its older
containers located in low demand locations if existing market conditions
continue. Additionally, should the decline in economic value of continuing to
own such containers turn out to be permanent, the Partnership may be required to
increase its depreciation rate or write-down the value for some or all of its
container rental equipment.
Although average utilization during the year ended December 31, 1999 was lower
than the comparable period in 1998 for the reasons discussed above, utilization
has been steadily improving during the second half of 1999 and has remained
stable into the beginning of 2000. This improvement in utilization was due to
slight improvements in demand for leased containers and the trade imbalance
primarily as a result of the improvement in certain Asian economies and a
related increase in exports out of Europe. Although the General Partners do not
foresee material changes in existing market conditions for the near term, they
are cautiously optimistic that the current level of utilization might be
maintained during 2000. However, the General Partners caution that utilization,
lease rates and container sale prices could also decline, adversely affecting
the Partnership's operating results.
Substantially all of the Partnership's rental income was generated from the
leasing of the Partnership's containers under short-term operating leases.
The balance of other rental income consists of other lease-related items,
primarily income from charges to lessees for dropping off containers in lower
demand locations less credits granted to lessees for leasing containers from
lower demand locations (location income), income from charges to lessees for
handling related to leasing and returning containers (handling income) and
income from charges to lessees for a Damage Protection Plan (DPP). For the year
ended December 31, 1999, the total of these other rental income items was
$1,438, a decrease of $236 from the equivalent period in 1998. Other income
decreased primarily due to the decrease in location income of $260. Location
income decreased due to a decrease in charges to lessees for dropping off
containers in certain locations and an increase in credits granted to lessees
for picking up containers from certain locations. These decreases and increases
were in the lessees' favor and were driven by the market conditions discussed
above.
For the year ended December 31, 1998, the total of these other rental income
items was $1,674, an increase of $535 from the equivalent period in 1997. Other
income increased primarily due to an increase in location income of $728, offset
by a decrease in handling income of $168. Location income increased due to a
decrease in credits given to lessees for picking up containers from certain
locations. Handling income decreased primarily due to decreases in container
movement and the average handling price charged per container.
Direct container expenses increased $436, or 12%, from the year ended December
31, 1998 to the equivalent period in 1999. The increase was primarily due to
increases in storage and DPP expense of $379 and $251, offset by a decrease in
repositioning expense of $106. Storage expense increased primarily due to the
decline in utilization. DPP expense increased due to an increase in the average
repair cost per DPP container and an increase in the number of containers
covered under DPP. The decrease in repositioning expense was due to a lower
average repositioning cost per container, offset by an increase in the number of
containers repositioned.
Direct container expenses increased $652, or 23%, from the year ended December
31, 1997 to the equivalent period in 1998. The increase was primarily due to an
increase in repositioning expense of $770, offset by a decrease in handling
expense of $112. Repositioning expense increased primarily due to an increase in
the number of containers transported from low demand locations to higher demand
locations at a higher average cost per container. Handling expense decreased due
to decreases in container movement and the average handling cost per container
during the year ended December 31, 1998 compared to the year ended December 31,
1997.
Bad debt expense was $164, $5 and $116 for the years ended December 31, 1999,
1998 and 1997, respectively. The resolution of payment issues with one lessee
during 1998 and lower 1998 reserve requirements were primarily responsible for
the lower expense recorded in 1998 and, therefore, the fluctuation in bad debt
expense between the periods.
Depreciation and amortization expense was comparable at $4,728, $4,837 and
$4,825 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
New container prices have been declining since 1995, and the cost of purchasing
new containers at year-end 1998 and during 1999, was significantly less than the
cost of containers purchased in prior years. The Partnership has evaluated the
recoverability of the recorded amount of container rental equipment and
determined that a reduction to the carrying value of the containers was not
required during the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. The
Partnership will continue to evaluate the recoverability of recorded amounts of
container rental equipment and cautions that a write-down of container rental
equipment and/or an increase in its depreciation rate may be required in future
periods for some or all of its container rental equipment.
Management fees to affiliates decreased $206, or 16%, from the year ended
December 31, 1998 to the same period in 1999 due to decreases in equipment
management and incentive management fees. Equipment management fees, which are
based on rental income, decreased due to the decrease in rental income and were
approximately 7% of rental income for the years ended December 31, 1999 and
1998. Incentive management fees, which are based on the Partnership's limited
and general partner distribution percentage and partners' capital, decreased due
to the decrease in the limited partner distribution percentage from 8% to 7% of
partners' capital in March 1999 and from 9% to 8% of partners' capital in July
1998.
Management fees to affiliates decreased $13, or 1%, from the year ended December
31, 1997 to the equivalent period in 1998, due to a decrease in incentive
management fees, offset by the increase in equipment management fees. Incentive
management fees decreased due to the decrease in the limited partner
distribution percentage from 9% to 8% of partners' capital in July 1998.
Equipment management fees increased due to the increase in rental income and
were 7% of rental income for both periods.
General and administrative costs to affiliates decreased $145, or 19% from the
year ended December 31, 1998 to the comparable period in 1999. The decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in the allocation of overhead costs from TEM, as the
Partnership represented a smaller portion of the total fleet managed by TEM.
General and administrative costs to affiliates decreased $87, or 10% from the
year ended December 31, 1997 to the equivalent period in 1998, due to decreases
in the allocation of overhead costs from TEM and TCC.
Other income decreased $88 from income of $7 for the year ended December 31,
1998 to an expense of $81 for the comparable period in 1999. The decrease was
due to the increase in loss on sale of containers of $115, partially offset by
an increase in interest income, net of $27. The increase in loss on sale of
containers in 1999 was primarily due to the Partnership having sold more damaged
containers in lower demand locations and at lower average sales prices than in
the comparable period in 1998.
Other income decreased $101 from the year ended December 31, 1997 to the year
ended December 31, 1998. The decrease was primarily due to the fluctuation of
gain/loss on sale of containers from a gain of $74 for the year ended December
31, 1997 to a loss of $37 for the year ended December 31, 1998. The loss on sale
of containers was primarily due to the Partnership beginning to sell certain
damaged containers in low demand locations as a result of market conditions.
Net earnings per limited partnership unit decreased from $0.81 to $0.25, and
from $0.86 to $0.81 from the years ended December 31, 1998 to 1999 and from
December 31, 1997 to 1998, respectively. These decreases reflect the decreases
in net earnings allocated to limited partners from $3,620 to $1,109 from the
year ended December 31, 1998 to 1999 and from $3,828 to $3,620 from December 31,
1997 to 1998. The allocation of net earnings for the years ended December 31,
1999, 1998 and 1997 included a special allocation of gross income of $51, $39
and $93, respectively, to the General Partners in accordance with the
Partnership Agreement.
Although substantially all of the Partnership's income from operations is
derived from assets employed in foreign operations, virtually all of this income
is denominated in United States dollars. The Partnership's customers are
international shipping lines, which transport goods on international trade
routes. The domicile of the lessee is not indicative of where the lessee is
transporting the containers. The Partnership's business risk in its foreign
operations lies with the creditworthiness of the lessees, and the Partnership's
ability to keep its containers under lease, rather than the geographic location
of the containers or the domicile of the lessees. The containers are generally
operated on the international high seas rather than on domestic waterways. The
containers are subject to the risk of war or other political, economic or social
occurrence where the containers are used, which may result in the loss of
containers, which, in turn, may have a material impact on the Partnership's
results of operations and financial condition. The General Partners are not
aware of any conditions as of December 31, 1999, which would result in such a
risk materializing.
Other risks of the Partnership's leasing operations include competition, the
cost of repositioning containers after they come off-lease, the risk of an
uninsured loss, increases in maintenance expenses or other costs of operating
the containers, and the effect of world trade, industry trends and/or general
business and economic cycles on the Partnership's operations. See "Risk Factors"
in the Partnership's Prospectus, as supplemented, for additional information on
risks of the Partnership's business.
Effect of Date Crossing to Year 2000
There has been no material effect on the Partnership's financial condition and
results of operations as a result of problems arising from computer systems'
abilities to process dates beyond January 1, 2000. The General Partners do not
currently expect any such problems to arise within their own computer systems.
The likelihood that a failure in a third party's system would occur and have a
significant adverse effect on the Partnership's operations seems increasingly
remote, but no assurance can be given that, due to unforeseen circumstances,
such an event could not occur. Therefore, the Partnership's contingency plan
remains in place; that is, the General Partners continue to remain capable of
switching temporarily to manual operations in the event of a computer system's
failure. There can be no assurance, however, that switching to manual operations
would prevent all adverse effects of any future year 2000 problem.
Forward Looking Statements
The foregoing includes forward-looking statements and predictions about possible
or future events, results of operations and financial condition. These
statements and predictions may prove to be inaccurate, because of the
assumptions made by the Partnership or the General Partners or the actual
development of future events. No assurance can be given that any of these
forward-looking statements or predictions will ultimately prove to be correct or
even substantially correct. The risks and uncertainties in these forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to, changes in demand for leased
containers, changes in global business conditions and their effect on world
trade, future modifications in the way in which the Partnership's lessees
conduct their business or of the profitability of their business, increases or
decreases in new container prices or the availability of financing therefor,
alterations in the costs of maintaining and repairing used containers, increases
in competition, changes in the Partnership's ability to maintain insurance for
its containers and its operations, the effects of political conditions on
worldwide shipping and demand for global trade or of other general business and
economic cycles on the Partnership, as well as other risks detailed herein and
from time to time in the Partnership's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Partnership does not undertake any obligation to update
forward-looking statements.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Nature of Operations
Textainer Equipment Income Fund V, L.P. (TEIF V or the Partnership), a
California limited partnership, with a maximum life of 20 years, was
formed on July 15, 1993. The Partnership was formed to engage in the
business of owning, leasing and selling both new and used equipment
related to the international containerized cargo shipping industry,
including, but not limited to, containers, trailers and other
container-related equipment. TEIF V offered units representing limited
partnership interests (Units) to the public from May 1, 1994 until April
29, 1996, the close of the offering period, when a total of 4,465,263
Units had been purchased for a total of $89,305.
Textainer Capital Corporation (TCC) is the managing general partner of the
Partnership. Textainer Equipment Management Limited (TEM) and Textainer
Limited (TL) are associate general partners of the Partnership. The
managing general partner and the associate general partners are
collectively referred to as the General Partners and are commonly owned by
Textainer Group Holdings Limited (TGH). The General Partners also act in
this capacity for other limited partnerships. Prior to its liquidation in
October 1998, Textainer Acquisition Services Limited (TAS), a former
affiliate of the General Partners, performed services related to the
acquisition of containers outside the United States on behalf of the
Partnership. Effective November 1998, these services are being performed
by TEM. The General Partners manage and control the affairs of the
Partnership.
(b) Basis of Accounting
The Partnership utilizes the accrual method of accounting. Revenue is
recorded when earned according to the terms of the container rental
contracts. These contracts are classified as operating leases or direct
finance leases if they so qualify under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 13: "Accounting for Leases". Substantially all of the
Partnership's rental income was generated from the leasing of the
Partnership's containers under short-term operating leases.
(c) Use of Estimates
Certain estimates and assumptions were made by the Partnership's
management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
(d) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107,
"Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," the Partnership
calculates the fair value of financial instruments and includes this
additional information in the notes to the financial statements when the
fair value is different than the book value of those financial
instruments. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the fair value of the
Partnership's financial instruments approximates the related book value of
such instruments.
(e) Container Rental Equipment
Container rental equipment is recorded at the cost of the assets
purchased, which includes acquisition fees, less depreciation charged.
Depreciation of new containers is computed using the straight-line method
over an estimated useful life of 12 years to a 28% salvage value. Used
containers are depreciated based upon their estimated remaining useful
life at the date of acquisition (from 2 to 11 years). When assets are
retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated
depreciation are removed from the equipment accounts and any resulting
gain or loss is recognized in income for the period.
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets
to be Disposed of" (SFAS 121), the Partnership periodically compares the
carrying value of its containers to expected future cash flows for the
purpose of assessing the recoverability of the recorded amounts. If the
carrying value exceeds expected future cash flows, the assets are written
down to estimated fair value. In addition, containers identified for
disposal are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less
cost to sell.
New container prices have been declining since 1995, and the cost of
purchasing new containers at year-end 1998 and during 1999, was
significantly less than the cost of containers purchased in prior years.
The Partnership has evaluated the recoverability of the recorded amount of
container rental equipment and determined that a reduction to the carrying
value of the containers was not required during the years ended December
31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. The Partnership will continue to evaluate the
recoverability of recorded amounts of container rental equipment and
cautions that a write-down of container rental equipment and/or an
increase in its depreciation rate may be required in future periods for
some or all of its container rental equipment.
(f) Nature of Income from Operations
Although substantially all of the Partnership's income from operations is
derived from assets employed in foreign operations, virtually all of this
income is denominated in United States dollars. The Partnership's
customers are international shipping lines that transport goods on
international trade routes. The domicile of the lessee is not indicative
of where the lessee is transporting the containers. The Partnership's
business risk in its foreign operations lies with the creditworthiness of
the lessees rather than the geographic location of the containers or the
domicile of the lessees.
No single lessee accounted for more than 10% of the Partnership's revenues
for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.
(g) Allocation of Net Earnings and Partnership Distributions
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, sections 3.08 through 3.12,
net earnings or losses and distributions are generally allocated 1% to the
General Partners and 99% to the Limited Partners. If the allocation of
distributions exceeds the allocation of net earnings and creates a deficit
in a General Partner's capital account, the Partnership Agreement provides
for a special allocation of gross income equal to the amount of the
deficit.
Actual cash distributions to the Limited Partners differ from the
allocated net earnings as presented in these financial statements because
cash distributions are based on cash available for distribution. Cash
distributions are paid to the general and limited partners on a monthly
basis in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement. Some
limited partners have elected to have their distributions paid quarterly.
The Partnership has recorded deferred distributions of $81 and $94 at
December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
(h) Income Taxes
The Partnership is not subject to income taxes. Accordingly, no provision
for income taxes has been made. The Partnership files federal and state
information returns only. Taxable income or loss is reportable by the
individual partners.
(i) Organization Costs
Organization costs which resulted from the formation of the Partnership
were capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.
During 1999, the Partnership adopted Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5
"Reporting on Costs of Start-up Activities", which prescribes that
organization costs be expensed. In accordance with SOP 98-5, the
Partnership wrote-off $35 of unamortized organization costs during the
year ended December 31, 1999.
(j) Acquisition Fees
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, acquisition fees equal to 5%
of the container purchase price were paid to TEM beginning in November
1998 and TAS through October 1998. These fees are capitalized as part of
the cost of the containers.
(k) Recovery Costs
The Partnership accrues an estimate for recovery costs as a result of
defaults under its leases that it expects to incur, which are in excess of
estimated insurance proceeds. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the amounts
accrued were $172 and $132, respectively.
(l) Damage Protection Plan
The Partnership offers a Damage Protection Plan (DPP) to lessees of its
containers. Under the terms of DPP, the Partnership earns additional
revenues on a daily basis and, in return, has agreed to bear certain
repair costs. It is the Partnership's policy to recognize revenue when
earned and provide a reserve sufficient to cover the Partnership's
obligation for estimated future repair costs. DPP expenses are included in
direct container expenses in the Statements of Earnings and the related
reserve at December 31, 1999 and 1998 was $531 and $397, respectively.
(m) Limited Partners' Per Unit Share of Net Earnings and Distributions
Limited partners' per unit share of both net earnings and distributions
were computed using the weighted average number of units outstanding which
was 4,454,893 during each of the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and
1997.
(n) Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications, not affecting net earnings, have been made to
prior year amounts in order to conform with the 1999 financial statement
presentation.
Note 2. Transactions with Affiliates
As part of the operation of the Partnership, the Partnership is to pay to
the General Partners, or TAS prior to its liquidation, an acquisition fee,
an equipment management fee, an incentive management fee and an equipment
liquidation fee. These fees are for various services provided in
connection with the administration and management of the Partnership. The
Partnership capitalized $17 and $68 of equipment acquisition fees as part
of container rental equipment costs during the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively. The Partnership did not capitalize any
equipment acquisition fees during 1999. The Partnership incurred $269,
$319, and $347 of incentive management fees during each of the three years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. No equipment
liquidation fees were incurred during these periods.
The Partnership's containers are managed by TEM. In its role as manager,
TEM has authority to acquire, hold, manage, lease, sell and dispose of the
containers. TEM holds, for the payment of direct operating expenses, a
reserve of cash that has been collected from leasing operations; such cash
is included in due from affiliates, net, at December 31, 1999 and 1998.
Subject to certain reductions, TEM receives a monthly equipment management
fee equal to 7% of gross lease revenues attributable to operating leases
and 2% of gross lease revenues attributable to full payout net leases. For
the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, equipment management
fees totaled $840, $996, and $981, respectively. The Partnership's
container fleet is leased by TEM to third party lessees on operating
master leases, spot leases, term leases and direct finance leases. The
majority of the container fleet is leased under operating master leases
with limited terms and no purchase option.
Certain indirect general and administrative costs such as salaries,
employee benefits, taxes and insurance are incurred in performing
administrative services necessary to the operation of the Partnership.
These costs are incurred and paid by TEM and TCC. Total general and
administrative costs allocated to the Partnership were as follows:

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance.
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Partnership's
General Partners, policy-making officials and persons who beneficially own more
than ten percent of the Units to file reports of ownership and changes in
ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Copies of these reports
