ICON Equipment and Corporate Infrastructure Fund Fourteen, L.P. 

(A Delaware Limited Partnership) 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 

March 31, 2014 

(unaudited)  

 

(1)       Organization

 

ICON Equipment and Corporate Infrastructure Fund Fourteen, L.P. (the “Partnership”) was formed on August 20, 2008 as a Delaware limited partnership.  When used in these notes to consolidated financial statements, the terms “we,” “us,” “our” or similar terms refer to the Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries. Our offering period commenced on May 18, 2009 and ended on May 18, 2011. We are currently in our operating period, which commenced on May 19, 2011.

 

We operate as an equipment leasing and finance fund in which the capital our partners invested is pooled together to make investments in business-essential equipment and corporate infrastructure (collectively, “Capital Assets”), pay fees and establish a small reserve. We primarily invest in Capital Assets, including, but not limited to, Capital Assets that are already subject to lease, Capital Assets that we purchase and lease to domestic and international businesses, loans that are secured by Capital Assets, and ownership rights to leased Capital Assets at lease expiration.

 

Our general partner is ICON GP 14, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “General Partner”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ICON Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company formerly known as ICON Capital Corp. (“ICON Capital”). Our General Partner manages and controls our business affairs, including, but not limited to, the Capital Assets we invest in. Our General Partner has engaged ICON Capital as our investment manager (the “Investment Manager”) to, among other things, facilitate the acquisition and servicing of our investments.

 

(2)       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

 

Our accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. In the opinion of our General Partner, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  These consolidated financial statements should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.  The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

 

Credit Quality of Notes Receivable and Finance Leases and Credit Loss Reserve

 

Our Investment Manager weighs all credit decisions based on a combination of external credit ratings as well as internal credit evaluations of all borrowers. A borrower’s credit is analyzed using those credit ratings as well as the borrower’s financial statements and other financial data deemed relevant.

 

As our financing receivables, generally notes receivable and finance leases, are limited in number, our Investment Manager is able to estimate the credit loss reserve based on a detailed analysis of each financing receivable as opposed to using portfolio-based metrics and credit loss reserve.  Financing receivables are analyzed quarterly and categorized as either performing or non-performing based on payment history.  If a financing receivable becomes non-performing due to a borrower’s missed scheduled payments or failed financial covenants, our Investment Manager analyzes whether a credit loss reserve should be established or whether the financing receivable should be restructured.  Material events would be specifically disclosed in the discussion of each financing receivable held.

 

Financing receivables are generally placed in a non-accrual status when payments are more than 90 days past due. Additionally, our Investment Manager periodically reviews the creditworthiness of companies with payments outstanding less than 90 days and based upon our Investment Manager’s judgment, these accounts may be placed in a non-accrual status.

In accordance with the cost recovery method, payments received on non-accrual financing receivables are applied to principal if there is doubt regarding the ultimate collectability of principal. If collection of the principal of non-accrual financing receivables is not in doubt, interest income is recognized on a cash basis. Financing receivables in non-accrual status may not be restored to accrual status until all delinquent payments have been received, and we believe recovery of the remaining unpaid receivable is probable.

 

When our Investment Manager deems it is probable that we will not be able to collect all contractual principal and interest on a non-performing financing receivable, we perform an analysis to determine if a credit loss reserve is necessary. This analysis considers the estimated cash flows from the financing receivable, or the collateral value of the asset underlying the financing receivable when financing receivable repayment is collateral dependent. If it is determined that the impaired value of the non-performing financing receivable is less than the net carrying value, we will recognize a credit loss reserve or adjust the existing credit loss reserve with a corresponding charge to earnings. We then charge off a financing receivable in the period that it is deemed uncollectible by reducing the credit loss reserve and the balance of the financing receivable.

On July 26, 2011, we made a secured term loan to Western Drilling Inc. and Western Landholdings, LLC (collectively “Western Drilling”) in the amount of $9,465,000. The loan bears interest at 14% per year and matures on September 1, 2016.  The loan is secured by, among other collateral, a first priority security interest in oil and gas drilling rigs and a mortgage on real property.  Due to a change in market demand, the utilization of Western Drilling’s rigs has declined, which led to Western Drilling’s failure to meet recent payment obligations. As a result, the loan was placed on non-accrual status and we recorded a credit loss of $3,412,087 during the year ended December 31, 2013 based on the estimated value of the recoverable collateral. Subsequent to March 31, 2014, the collateral was sold and based on estimated cash proceeds to be received, we recorded an additional credit loss of $794,999 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The net carrying value of the non-accrual status loan at March 31, 2014 was $3,502,050. No finance income was recognized for the impaired loan for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

On March 9, 2012, we made a term loan in the amount of $7,500,000 to Kanza Construction, Inc. The loan bore interest at 13% per year and was for a period of 60 months. The loan was secured by a first priority security interest in all of Kanza’s assets. As a result of Kanza’s unexpected financial hardship and failure to meet certain payment obligations, the loan was placed on a non-accrual status and we recorded a total credit loss reserve of approximately $2,959,000 for the shortfall of the loan balance not covered by cash proceeds from the sale of the collateral in 2013.  As of March 31, 2014, we fully reserved the remaining balance of the loan of $2,958,795. We continue to pursue all legal remedies to obtain payment.

 

On January 31, 2014, INOVA Rentals Corporation (f/k/a ARAM Rentals Corporation) and INOVA Seismic Rentals Inc. (f/k/a ARAM Seismic Rentals Inc.) (collectively, the “INOVA Borrowers”) satisfied their obligation in connection with three term loans scheduled to mature on August 1, 2014 by making a prepayment of approximately $1,368,000. No material gain or loss was recorded as a result of this transaction.

(6)       Investment in Joint Ventures

 

On March 4, 2014, a joint venture owned 15% by us, 60% by ICON Leasing Fund Twelve, LLC (“Fund Twelve”), 15% by ICON ECI Fund Fifteen, L.P. (“Fund Fifteen”) and 10% by ICON ECI Fund Sixteen (“Fund Sixteen”), each an entity also managed by our Investment Manager, purchased mining equipment from an affiliate of Blackhawk Mining, LLC (“Blackhawk”).  Simultaneously, the mining equipment was leased to Blackhawk and its affiliates for four years. The aggregate purchase price for the mining equipment of approximately $25,359,000 was funded by approximately $17,859,000 in cash and $7,500,000 of non-recourse long-term debt. Our contribution to the joint venture was $2,693,395.

 

On March 21, 2014, a joint venture (“ICON Siva”) owned 12.5% by us, 12.5% by Fund Fifteen and 75% by Fund Twelve, through two indirect subsidiaries, entered into memoranda of agreement to purchase two LPG tanker vessels, the SIVA Coral and the SIVA Pearl (collectively, the “SIVA Vessels”), from Siva Global Ships Limited (“Siva Global”) for an aggregate purchase price of $41,600,000. The SIVA Coral and the SIVA Pearl were delivered on March 28, 2014 and April 8, 2014, respectively. The SIVA Vessels were bareboat chartered to an affiliate of Siva Global for a period of eight years upon the delivery of each respective vessel. The SIVA Coral was acquired for approximately $3,550,000 in cash, $12,400,000 of financing through a senior secured loan (the “Loan”) from DVB Group Merchant Bank (Asia) Ltd. (“DVB”) and $4,750,000 of financing through a subordinated, non-interest-bearing seller’s credit. As of March 31, 2014, the draw down from the Loan associated with the SIVA Pearl and ICON Siva’s cash investment totaling approximately $15,950,000 for the purpose of acquiring the SIVA Pearl is being held in escrow. Our contribution to ICON Siva was $1,022,225.

(7)       Non-Recourse Long-Term Debt

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had non-recourse long-term debt obligations of $170,046,127 and $185,275,365, respectively, with maturity dates ranging from June 21, 2016 to March 29, 2021, and interest rates ranging from 4.983% to 12% per year, some of which were fixed after giving effect to the respective interest rate swap agreements.

 

We, through certain subsidiaries of our joint venture with Fund Twelve, borrowed $128,000,000 (the “Senior Debt”) in connection with the acquisition of two aframax tankers and two very large crude carriers on bareboat charter to AET Inc. Limited (collectively, the “AET Vessels”).  The joint venture also borrowed $22,000,000 of subordinated non-recourse long-term debt from an unaffiliated third party (the “Sub Debt”).

 

On April 20, 2012, the joint venture with the AET Vessels was notified of an event of default on the Senior Debt.  Due to a change in the fair value of the AET Vessels, a provision in the Senior Debt loan agreement restricted our ability to utilize cash generated by the charters of the AET Vessels as of January 12, 2012 for purposes other than paying the Senior Debt.  Charter payments in excess of the Senior Debt loan service were held in reserve by the Senior Debt lender until such time as the restriction was cured. Once cured, the reserves were to be released to us. While this restriction was in place, we were prevented from applying the charter proceeds to the Sub Debt. As a result of our failure to make required Sub Debt loan payments from June 2012 through March 2014, the Sub Debt lender has certain rights, including step-in rights, which allows it to collect cash generated from the charters until such time as the Sub Debt lender has received all unpaid amounts. The Sub Debt lender has reserved, but not exercised, its rights under the loan agreement.

 

On March 31, 2014, we satisfied the Senior Debt obligations in connection with the two aframax tankers by making a final payment of approximately $5,680,000. This satisfaction cured any default related to these vessels associated with the Senior Debt. On April 14, 2014, one of the aframax tankers, the Eagle Otome, was sold and the proceeds were used to partially pay down the outstanding principal and interest related to the Sub Debt. At March 31, 2014, $1,423,420 was included in restricted cash. 

 

We restructured the non-recourse long-term debt associated with a crude oil tanker, the Center, and the non-recourse long-term debt associated with two supramax bulk carrier vessels, the Amazing and the Fantastic, on March 19, 2014 and March 31, 2014, respectively, to amend the repayment stream and financial covenants.  The interest rates and maturity dates remain the same for the loans.  As of March 31, 2014, we were in compliance with all covenants related to the loans associated with the Amazing and the Fantastic and we were not in compliance with a certain financial covenant related to the loan associated with the Center. Subsequent to March 31, 2014, we cured such non-compliance.

 

(8)       Revolving Line of Credit, Recourse

 

We entered into an agreement with California Bank & Trust (“CB&T”) for a revolving line of credit through March 31, 2015 of up to $15,000,000 (the “Facility”), which is secured by all of our assets not subject to a first priority lien. Amounts available under the Facility are subject to a borrowing base that is determined, subject to certain limitations, based on the present value of the future receivables under certain loans and lease agreements in which we have a beneficial interest. At March 31, 2014, we had $8,472,398 available under the Facility pursuant to the borrowing base.

 

The interest rate for general advances under the Facility is CB&T’s prime rate.  We may elect to designate up to five advances on the outstanding principal balance of the Facility to bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.5% per year.  In all instances, borrowings under the Facility are subject to an interest rate floor of 4.0% per year. In addition, we are obligated to pay an annualized 0.5% fee on unused commitments under the Facility.  At March 31, 2014, there were no obligations outstanding under the Facility and we were in compliance with all covenants related to the Facility.

 

(9)       Transactions with Related Parties  

We made distributions to our General Partner of $52,277 and $52,288 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  Additionally, our General Partner’s interest in the net income attributable to us was $17,052 and $53,190 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had a note receivable from a joint venture of $2,588,076 and $2,575,278, respectively, and accrued interest of $30,086 and $29,938, respectively. The accrued interest is included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets.  For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, interest income relating to the note receivable from the joint venture of $99,941 and $95,279, respectively, was recognized and included in finance income on the consolidated statements of operations.

 

(10)       Derivative Financial Instruments 

We may enter into derivative financial instruments for purposes of hedging specific financial exposures, including movements in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates on our non-recourse long-term debt. We enter into these instruments only for hedging underlying exposures. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for purposes other than hedging, except for warrants, which are not hedges. Certain derivatives may not meet the established criteria to be designated as qualifying accounting hedges, even though we believe that these are effective economic hedges.

 

We recognize all derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets and measure those instruments at fair value. Changes in the fair value of such instruments are recognized immediately in earnings unless certain criteria are met. These criteria demonstrate that the derivative is expected to be highly effective at offsetting changes in the fair value or expected cash flows of the underlying exposure at both the inception of the hedging relationship and on an ongoing basis and include an evaluation of the counterparty risk and the impact, if any, on the effectiveness of the derivative. If these criteria are met, which we must document and assess at inception and on an ongoing basis, we recognize the changes in fair value of such instruments in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of equity on the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of the ineffective portion of all derivatives are recognized immediately in earnings.

 

U.S. GAAP and relevant International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. agreements permit a reporting entity that is a party to a master netting agreement to offset fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments that have been offset under the same master netting agreement. We elected to present the fair value of derivative contracts on a gross basis on the consolidated balance sheets.

Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our variable non-recourse debt. Our strategy to accomplish these objectives is to match the projected future cash flows with the underlying debt service. Each interest rate swap involves the receipt of floating-rate interest payments from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate interest payments over the life of the agreement without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

 

Counterparty Risk

 

We manage exposure to possible defaults on derivative financial instruments by monitoring the concentration of risk that we have with any individual bank and through the use of minimum credit quality standards for all counterparties. We do not require collateral or other security in relation to derivative financial instruments. Since it is our policy to enter into derivative contracts only with banks of internationally acknowledged standing and the fair value of our derivatives is in a liability position, we consider the counterparty risk to be remote.

 

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had only warrants in an asset position that were not material to the consolidated financial statements; therefore, we consider the counterparty risk to be remote.

 

Credit Risk

 

Derivative contracts may contain credit-risk related contingent features that can trigger a termination event, such as maintaining specified financial ratios. In the event that we would be required to settle our obligations under the derivative contracts as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the termination value would be $6,362,971 and $6,466,750, respectively.

 

Non-designated Derivatives

 

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had three and five interest rate swaps, respectively, with DVB Bank SE that are not designated and not qualifying as cash flow hedges with an aggregate notional amount of $118,315,000 and $127,175,000, respectively. Additionally, we hold warrants that are held for purposes other than hedging. All changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps not designated as hedges and the warrants are recorded directly in earnings, which is included in loss (gain) on derivative financial instruments.

Our derivative financial instruments not designated as hedging instruments generated a loss (gain) on derivative financial instruments on the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 of $661,350 and ($77,026), respectively.  The loss recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was comprised of a loss of $664,403 relating to interest rate swap contracts and a gain of $3,053 relating to warrants. The gain recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was comprised of gains of $54,581 relating to interest rate swap contracts and $22,445 relating to warrants. These amounts were recorded as a component of loss (gain) on derivative financial instruments on the consolidated statements of operations.

 

(11)      Fair Value Measurements

Assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

 

·   Level 1:

Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.

 

·   Level 2:

Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or

 

 

indirectly observable as of the reporting date.

 

·   Level 3:

Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable and are supported by little or no market data.

  

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis

 

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our Investment Manager’s assessment, on our behalf, of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

 

The following table summarizes the valuation of our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2014:

Our derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps and warrants, are valued using models based on readily observable or unobservable market parameters for all substantial terms of our derivative financial instruments and are classified within Level 2 or Level 3. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use market prices and pricing models for fair value measurements of our derivative financial instruments.

Interest Rate Swaps

We utilize a model that incorporates common market pricing methods as well as underlying characteristics of the particular swap contract. Interest rate swaps are modeled by incorporating such inputs as the term to maturity, LIBOR swap curves, Overnight Index Swap curves and the payment rate on the fixed portion of the interest rate swap. Such inputs are classified within Level 2. Thereafter, we compare third party quotations received to our own estimate of fair value to evaluate for reasonableness. The fair value of the interest rate swaps was recorded in derivative financial instruments within the consolidated balance sheets.

                                      

Warrants

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model based on observable and unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement and are classified within Level 3. Unobservable inputs used in the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model include, but are not limited to, the expected stock price volatility and the expected period until the warrants are exercised. Increases or decreases of these inputs would result in a higher or lower fair value measurement. 

 

The fair value of the warrants was recorded in other assets within the consolidated balance sheets. The unrealized gain on the change in fair value of the warrants was recorded in loss (gain) on derivative financial instruments on the consolidated statements of operations.  

 

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

 

We are required, on a nonrecurring basis, to adjust the carrying value or provide valuation allowances for certain assets using fair value measurements.  The valuation of our financial assets, such as notes receivable or direct financing leases, is included below only when fair value has been measured and recorded based on the fair value of the underlying collateral.  The following tables summarize the valuation of our material financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, of which the fair value information presented is not current but rather as of the date the impairment was recorded, and the carrying value of the asset as of March 31, 2014:

Our collateral dependent note receivable was valued using the agreed upon sales price.  The sales price was a quoted price in an inactive market which was supported by little or no market data as of the reporting date and therefore classified as Level 3.

 

Assets and Liabilities for which Fair Value is Disclosed

 

Certain of our financial assets and liabilities, which include fixed-rate notes receivable, fixed-rate non-recourse long-term debt and other liabilities, in which fair value is required to be disclosed, were valued using inputs that are generally unobservable and supported by little or no market data and are therefore classified within Level 3. Under U.S. GAAP, we use projected cash flows for fair value measurements of these financial assets and liabilities. Fair value information with respect to certain of our other assets and liabilities is not separately provided since (i) U.S. GAAP does not require fair value disclosures of lease arrangements and (ii) the carrying value of financial assets, other than lease-related investments, and the recorded value of recourse debt approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities and variable interest rates.

 

The estimated fair value of our fixed-rate notes receivable, fixed-rate non-recourse long-term debt and other liabilities was based on the discounted value of future cash flows related to the loans based on recent transactions of this type. Principal

(12)      Commitments and Contingencies  

At the time we acquire or divest of our interest in Capital Assets, we may, under very limited circumstances, agree to indemnify the seller or buyer for specific contingent liabilities.  Our General Partner believes that any liability of ours that may arise as a result of any such indemnification obligations will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole.

 

 On September 27, 2010, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, ICON SE, LLC (“ICON SE”), participated in a $46,000,000 facility by agreeing to make a secured term loan to SE Shipping Lines Pte. Ltd. (“SE”) for the purchase of a new-build heavy lift vessel and accompanying equipment.  Although all of the material conditions to closing were satisfied, SE breached its obligations under the loan by refusing to draw down on the facility. Subsequently, ICON SE commenced an action against SE in the United Kingdom for SE’s failure to pay ICON SE the commitment fee due in accordance with the loan agreement.

 

At March 31, 2014, we had non-recourse and other debt obligations. The lender has a security interest in the majority of the assets collateralizing each non-recourse debt instrument and an assignment of the rental payments under the lease associated with the assets. If the lessee defaults on the lease, the assets would be returned to the lender in extinguishment of the non-recourse debt. At March 31, 2014, our outstanding non-recourse long-term indebtedness was $170,046,127.

 

In connection with certain investments, we are required to maintain restricted cash balances with certain banks. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had restricted cash of $3,323,420 and $10,860,964, respectively.

 

(13)      Subsequent Events

 

On April 14, 2014, we sold the aframax tanker, the Eagle Otome, to Navramar Navigation SA (“Navramar”) for approximately $7,395,000.

 

On April 15, 2014, we sold all of our interest in two term loans with Ocean Navigation 5 Co. Ltd. and Ocean Navigation 6 Co. Ltd. (collectively, “Ocean Navigation”) to Garanti Bank International, N.V. (“Garanti Bank”) for $14,400,000.  

 

Subsequent to March 31, 2014, substantially all material conditions to closing were satisfied with respect to a commitment to acquire an offshore support vessel from a subsidiary of Pacific Radiance Ltd. (“Pacific Radiance”). A joint venture owned 12.5% by us, 12.5% by Fund Fifteen and 75% by Fund Twelve will acquire the vessel for $40,000,000. Simultaneously with the purchase, the vessel will be bareboat chartered to Pacific Radiance for a period of ten years. The joint venture intends to finance the purchase of the vessel with non-recourse senior debt from DVB in the amount of $26,000,000 and a seller’s credit from Pacific Radiance of $2,000,000.

Subsequent to March 31, 2014, substantially all material conditions to closing were satisfied with respect to a commitment to provide a senior secured term loan in an amount of up to $26,000,000 to two affiliates of Técnicas Maritimas Avanzadas, S.A. de C.V. (collectively, “TMA”). A joint venture owned 12.5% by us, 12.5% by Fund Fifteen and 75% by Fund Twelve will provide the loan which will be used by TMA to purchase and upgrade two platform supply vessels. The loan will bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of between 13% and 17% and will be for a period of five years.  The loan will be secured by, among other things, a first priority security interest in each of the vessels.

Item 2.  General Partner's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following is a discussion of our current financial position and results of operations. This discussion should be read together with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.  This discussion should also be read in conjunction with the disclosures below regarding “Forward-Looking Statements” and the “Risk Factors” set forth in Item 1A of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

 

We operate as an equipment leasing and finance fund in which the capital our partners invested is pooled together to make investments in Capital Assets, pay fees and establish a small reserve.  During our offering period from May 18, 2009 to May 18, 2011, we raised total equity of $257,646,987. Our operating period commenced on May 19, 2011. We invested a substantial portion of the proceeds from the sale of our limited partnership interests (“Interests”) in Capital Assets.  After these proceeds were invested, additional investments have been and will continue to be made with the cash generated from our initial investments to the extent that cash is not used for our expenses, reserves and distributions to limited partners.  The investment in additional Capital Assets in this manner is called “reinvestment.”  We anticipate investing and reinvesting in Capital Assets from time to time during our five-year operating period, which may be extended at our General Partner’s discretion, for up to an additional three years.  After the operating period, we will then sell our assets and/or let our investments mature in the ordinary course of business during our liquidation period.

 

Our General Partner manages and controls our business affairs, including, but not limited to, our investments in Capital Assets, under the terms of our limited partnership agreement.  Our Investment Manager, an affiliate of our General Partner, originates and services our investments.  

 

Recent Significant Transactions

 

We engaged in the following significant transactions since December 31, 2013:

 

           Telecommunications Equipment

 

On February 28, 2014, Global Crossing exercised its option to purchase certain telecommunications equipment at lease expiration for approximately $1,423,000. No gain or loss was recorded as a result of this transaction.

 

Notes Receivable

 

15


 

On July 26, 2011, we made a secured term loan to Western Drilling in the amount of $9,465,000. The loan bears interest at 14% per year and matures on September 1, 2016.  The loan is secured by, among other collateral, a first priority security interest in oil and gas drilling rigs and a mortgage on real property.  Due to a change in market demand, the utilization of Western Drilling’s rigs has declined, which led to Western Drilling’s failure to meet recent payment obligations. As a result, the loan was placed on non-accrual status and we recorded a credit loss of $3,412,087 during the year ended December 31, 2013 based on the estimated value of the recoverable collateral. Subsequent to March 31, 2014, the collateral was sold and based on estimated cash proceeds to be received, we recorded an additional credit loss of $794,999 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The net carrying value of the non-accrual status loan at March 31, 2014 was $3,502,050. No finance income was recognized for the impaired loan for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

On January 31, 2014, the INOVA Borrowers satisfied their obligation in connection with three term loans scheduled to mature on August 1, 2014 by making a prepayment of approximately $1,368,000. No material gain or loss was recorded as a result of this transaction. 

 

Tanker Vessels

 

On March 21, 2014, ICON Siva, through two indirect subsidiaries, entered into memoranda of agreement to purchase the SIVA Vessels from Siva Global for an aggregate purchase price of $41,600,000. The SIVA Coral and the SIVA Pearl were delivered on March 28, 2014 and April 8, 2014, respectively. The SIVA Vessels were bareboat chartered to an affiliate of Siva Global for a period of eight years upon the delivery of each respective vessel. The SIVA Coral was acquired for approximately $3,550,000 in cash, $12,400,000 of financing through the Loan from DVB and $4,750,000 of financing through a subordinated, non-interest-bearing seller’s credit. As of March 31, 2014, the draw down from the Loan associated with the SIVA Pearl and ICON Siva’s cash investment totaling approximately $15,950,000 for the purpose of acquiring the SIVA Pearl is being held in escrow. Our contribution to ICON Siva was $1,022,225.

 

Mining Equipment

 

On March 4, 2014, a joint venture owned 15% by us, 60% by Fund Twelve, 15% by Fund Fifteen and 10% by Fund Sixteen purchased mining equipment from an affiliate of Blackhawk. Simultaneously, the mining equipment was leased to Blackhawk and its affiliates for four years. The aggregate purchase price for the mining equipment of approximately $25,359,000 was funded by approximately $17,859,000 in cash and $7,500,000 of non-recourse long-term debt. Our contribution to the joint venture was $2,693,395.

 

Acquisition Fees

 

We incurred acquisition fees to our Investment Manager of $225,098 during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Subsequent Events

 

On April 14, 2014, we sold the aframax tanker, the Eagle Otome, to Navramar for approximately $7,395,000.

 

On April 15, 2014, we sold all of our interest in two term loans with Ocean Navigation to Garanti Bank for $14,400,000.

 

Subsequent to March 31, 2014, substantially all material conditions to closing were satisfied with respect to a commitment to acquire an offshore support vessel from a subsidiary of Pacific Radiance. A joint venture owned 12.5% by us, 12.5% by Fund Fifteen and 75% by Fund Twelve will acquire the vessel for $40,000,000. Simultaneously with the purchase, the vessel will be bareboat chartered to Pacific Radiance for a period of ten years. The joint venture intends to finance the purchase of the vessel with non-recourse senior debt from DVB in the amount of $26,000,000 and a seller’s credit from Pacific Radiance of $2,000,000.

 

Subsequent to March 31, 2014, substantially all material conditions to closing were satisfied with respect to a commitment to provide a senior secured term loan in an amount of up to $26,000,000 to TMA. A joint venture owned 12.5% by us, 12.5% by Fund Fifteen and 75% by Fund Twelve will provide the loan which will be used by TMA to purchase and upgrade two platform supply vessels. The loan will bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of between 13% and 17% and will be for a period of five years.  The loan will be secured by, among other things, a first priority security interest in each of the vessels.

Total revenue for the 2014 Quarter decreased $2,452,150, or 17.6%, as compared to the 2013 Quarter.  The decrease in finance income was a result of three vessels subject to bareboat charters with subsidiaries of Geden Holdings Ltd. (“Geden”) being placed on a non-accrual status and the satisfaction of several notes receivable during and subsequent to the 2013 Quarter.  This decrease was partially offset by an increase in income from investment in joint ventures as a result of entering into five additional joint ventures during or subsequent to the 2013 Quarter.

Total expenses for the 2014 Quarter increased $1,286,802, or 15.9%, as compared to the 2013 Quarter. The increase in credit loss in the 2014 Quarter was due to a credit loss recorded for Western Drilling with no comparable credit loss recorded in the 2013 Quarter. The change from a gain during the 2013 Quarter to a loss during the 2014 Quarter on derivative financial instruments was due to unfavorable movements in interest rates on our non-designated interest rate swaps. The increase in general and administrative expense was due to legal fees incurred during the 2014 Quarter related to Western Drilling and Kanza. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in administrative expense reimbursements due to lower costs incurred on our behalf by our Investment Manager and a decrease in interest expense as a result of scheduled repayments on our non-recourse long-term debt.

 

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

 

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests decreased $125,181, from $514,553 in the 2013 Quarter to $389,372 in the 2014 Quarter.  The decrease was primarily due to the change in fair value of our non-designated interest rate swaps in connection with a related party’s minority interest in our four leveraged operating leases.

 

Net Income Attributable to Fund Fourteen

 

As a result of the foregoing factors, net income attributable to us for the 2014 Quarter and the 2013 Quarter was $1,705,224 and $5,318,995, respectively. Net income attributable to us per weighted average limited partnership Interest outstanding for the 2014 Quarter and the 2013 Quarter was $6.52 and $20.34, respectively.

 

Financial Condition

 

This section discusses the major balance sheet variances at March 31, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013.

 

Total Assets 

Total assets decreased $18,160,456, from $410,277,896 at December 31, 2013 to $392,117,440 at March 31, 2014.  The decrease was primarily due to (i) scheduled repayments on our non-recourse long-term debt, (ii) distributions made to our partners and (iii) depreciation of our leased equipment at cost. These decreases were partially offset by cash receipts from financing and operating transactions during the 2014 Quarter.

 

Total Liabilities 

Total liabilities decreased $15,020,151, from $209,893,220 at December 31, 2013 to $194,873,069 at March 31, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to a prepayment and scheduled repayments on our non-recourse long-term debt, partially offset by an increase in accrued interest related to our Sub Debt during the 2014 Quarter.

 

Equity 

Equity decreased $3,140,305, from $200,384,676 at December 31, 2013 to $197,244,371 at March 31, 2014. The decrease was primarily the result of distributions made to our partners, partially offset by our net income in the 2014 Quarter.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Summary

 

At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5,054,144 and $9,526,625, respectively.  Pursuant to the terms of our offering, we have established a cash reserve in the amount of 0.50% of the gross offering proceeds from the sale of our Interests.  As of March 31, 2014, the cash reserve was $1,288,235. During our operating period, our main source of cash is typically from operating activities and our main use of cash is in investing and financing activities. Our liquidity will vary in the future, increasing to the extent cash flows from investments and proceeds from the sale of our investments exceed expenses and decreasing as we make new investments, make distributions to our partners and to the extent that expenses exceed cash flows from operations and the proceeds from the sale of our investments.

 

We believe that cash generated from the expected results of our operations will be sufficient to finance our liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future, including distributions to our partners, general and administrative expenses, new investment opportunities, management fees and administrative expense reimbursements.  At March 31, 2014, we had $8,472,398 available under a revolving line of credit pursuant to the borrowing base, which is available to fund our short-term liquidity needs.  For additional information, see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements.

 

Our ability to generate cash in the future is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors that affect us and our lessees’ and borrowers’ businesses that are beyond our control.

 

We have used the net proceeds of the offering and cash from operations to invest in Capital Assets located in North America, Europe and other developed markets, including those in Asia and elsewhere.  We have sought and continue to seek to acquire a portfolio of Capital Assets that is comprised of transactions that (a) provide current cash flow in the form of payments of principal and/or interest (in the case of secured loans) and rental payments (in the case of leases), (b) generate deferred cash flow from realizing the value of Capital Assets or interests therein at the maturity of the investment or exercise of an option to purchase Capital Assets, or (c) provide a combination of both.

 

Cash Flows

 

Operating Activities

 

Cash provided by operating activities increased $8,216,821, from $6,888,653 in the 2013 Quarter to $15,105,474 in the 2014 Quarter.  The increase primarily related to the release of restricted cash due to certain defaults being cured on our non-recourse long-term debt and the collection of certain financing receivables, including a redelivery fee related to certain vessels. This increase was offset by a decrease of finance and rental receipts as a result of the satisfaction of several notes receivable and the termination of certain leases during or subsequent to the 2013 Quarter.    

 

Investing Activities

 

Cash flows from investing activities increased $5,805,072, from a use of cash of $4,918,888 in the 2013 Quarter to a source of cash of $886,184 in the 2014 Quarter. The increase primarily resulted from the use of less cash to make investments and the prepayment by the INOVA Borrowers to satisfy their obligation in connection with three term loans during the 2014 Quarter.  The increase in proceeds from the sale of leased equipment was due to Global Crossing exercising its option to purchase certain telecommunications equipment during the 2014 Quarter. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in principal received on finance leases primarily due to subsidiaries of Geden having only partially satisfied their lease payment obligations during the 2014 Quarter.

 

Financing Activities

 

Cash used in financing activities increased $9,873,318, from $10,590,821 in the 2013 Quarter to $20,464,139 in the 2014 Quarter. The increase was primarily due to a prepayment and scheduled repayments on our non-recourse long-term debt during the 2014 Quarter.

 

Non-Recourse Long-Term Debt

 

We had non-recourse long-term debt obligations at March 31, 2014 of $170,046,127. Most of our non-recourse long-term debt obligations consist of notes payable in which the lender has a security interest in the underlying assets. If the borrower were to default on the underlying lease or loan, resulting in our default on the non-recourse long-term debt, the assets would be

21


 

returned to the lender in extinguishment of that debt.

 

On March 31, 2014, we satisfied the Senior Debt obligations in connection with the two aframax tankers by making a final payment of approximately $5,680,000. This satisfaction cured any default related to these vessels associated with the Senior Debt.  On April 14, 2014, one of the aframax tankers, the Eagle Otome, was sold and the proceeds were used to partially pay down the outstanding principal and interest related to the Sub Debt.

 

We restructured the non-recourse long-term debt associated with a crude oil tanker, the Center, and the non-recourse long-term debt associated with two supramax bulk carrier vessels, the Amazing and the Fantastic on March 19, 2014 and March 31, 2014, respectively, to amend the repayment stream and financial covenants.  The interest rates and maturity dates remain the same for the loans.  As of March 31, 2014, we were in compliance with all covenants related to the loans associated with the Amazing and the Fantastic and we were not in compliance with a certain financial covenant related to the loan associated with the Center. Subsequent to March 31, 2014, we cured such non-compliance.

 

Distributions

 

We, at our General Partner’s discretion, make monthly distributions to our limited partners beginning with the first month after each such limited partner’s admission and expect to continue to make such distributions until the termination of our operating period.  We made distributions of $52,277, $5,175,446 and $0 to our General Partner, limited partners and noncontrolling interests, respectively, during the 2014 Quarter.

 

Commitments and Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

 

Commitments and Contingencies

 

At the time we acquire or divest of an interest in Capital Assets, we may, under very limited circumstances, agree to indemnify the seller or buyer for specific contingent liabilities.  Our General Partner believes that any liability of ours that may arise as a result of any such indemnification obligations will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole.

 

On September 27, 2010, we, through ICON SE, participated in a $46,000,000 facility by agreeing to make a secured term loan to SE for the purchase of a new-build heavy lift vessel and accompanying equipment.  Although all of the material conditions to closing were satisfied, SE breached its obligations under the loan by refusing to draw down on the facility. Subsequently, ICON SE commenced an action against SE in the United Kingdom for SE’s failure to pay ICON SE the commitment fee due in accordance with the loan agreement.

 

At March 31, 2014, we had non-recourse and other debt obligations. The lender has a security interest in the majority of the assets collateralizing each non-recourse debt instrument and an assignment of the rental payments under the lease associated with the assets. If the lessee defaults on the lease, the assets would be returned to the lender in extinguishment of the non-recourse debt. At March 31, 2014, our outstanding non-recourse long-term indebtedness was $170,046,127.

 

In connection with certain investments, we are required to maintain restricted cash balances with certain banks. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had restricted cash of $3,323,420 and $10,860,964, respectively. 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

 

None.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2014, our General Partner carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the management of our General Partner, including its Co-Chief Executive Officers and the Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our General Partner’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on the foregoing evaluation, the Co-Chief Executive Officers and the Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that our General Partner’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

In designing and evaluating our General Partner’s disclosure controls and procedures, our General Partner recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.  Our General Partner’s disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Disclosure controls and procedures cannot detect or prevent all error and fraud. Some inherent limitations in disclosure controls and procedures include costs of implementation, faulty decision-making, simple error and mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based, in part, upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all anticipated and unanticipated future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with established policies or procedures.  

 

Evaluation of internal control over financial reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
