NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

Macquarie Equipment Leasing Fund, LLC ( the “Fund” or the “Company”), a Delaware limited liability company, was formed on August 21, 2008 for the purpose of being an equipment leasing program that will acquire a diversified portfolio of equipment, equipment leases and other equipment-related investments. The majority of the equipment is expected to be leased to corporate clients. The Fund’s objective is to generate income through the collection of lease rentals and other revenues, as well as through the sale of leased and off lease equipment and other portfolio investments. The Fund’s fiscal year end is December 31.

 

The manager of the Fund is Macquarie Asset Management Inc. (the “Manager” or the “Managing member”), a member of the Macquarie Group of Companies which is comprised of Macquarie Group Limited and its subsidiaries and affiliates worldwide (the “Macquarie Group”). Macquarie Group Limited is headquartered in Australia and is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. The Manager has made a total of $1,505,000 in capital contributions to the Fund. The Manager earns fees by providing or arranging all services necessary and desirable for the operations of the Fund, including those relating to equipment acquisitions and disposals, asset management and administrative, reporting and regulatory services. The Fund reimburses the Manager for costs incurred for managing the Fund and the Fund’s portfolio of equipment, equipment lease and other equipment-related investments.

 

The initial closing date for the Fund was March 5, 2010, the date at which the Fund raised over $2,500,000 and reached the minimum offering amount. The Fund’s offering period ceased on March 19, 2012 and the operating period commenced on that date.

 

This Report covers the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively and the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the interim period financial statements have been made. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full-year period. These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 as filed with the SEC on February 18, 2014.

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Accounting and Use of Estimates

 

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Fund considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with one financial institution.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Restricted cash consists of cash collected from the lessee of the CRJ 700 ER aircraft for maintenance costs.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Fund is treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. As a partnership, the Fund is not subject to federal and state income taxes, while each member will be individually liable for income taxes, if any, on their share of net taxable income from the Fund. Interest, dividends and other income realized by the Fund may be subject to withholding tax in the jurisdiction in which the income is sourced.

 

Leased Equipment at Cost

 

Investment in leased equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Leased equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term to the assets’ residual value. Initial direct costs (such as freight, installation, acquisition fees and expenses, legal fees and inspection fees) associated with the leases are capitalized as part of the cost of the leased equipment and depreciated over the lease term.

 

The lease term from the acquisition date by the Fund of each item of equipment is as follows:

 

7
 

  

MACQUARIE EQUIPMENT LEASING FUND, LLC

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

   Lease
   term (in years)
Aircraft engines (2 x CFM56-7B jet engines)  9
Aircraft Bombardier CRJ 700 ER  2
Aircraft (Airbus model A320-200)  2.5
Self-serve checkout equipment  5
Flat bed rail cars  5
Racetrack equipment  4
Smart safes  5
Machine tool equipment  5

 

The residual value and useful life are determined by the Fund’s Manager and are calculated using information from both internal (i.e. from affiliates) and external sources, such as trade publications, industry valuers, auction data, internal sales data, equipment dealers, wholesalers and industry experts, as well as inspection of the physical asset and other economic indicators. Once an asset comes off lease or is re-leased, the Fund reassesses its useful life and residual value.

 

Costs incurred in extending the useful life and/or increasing the resale value of leased equipment are capitalized into the cost of an asset. No such costs have been incurred to date.

 

If the equipment if returned at the end of a lease term, and the lessee has not met the return conditions as set out in the lease, the Fund is entitled in certain cases to additional compensation from the lessee. The Fund’s accounting policy for recording such payments is to treat the payments as revenue. No such payments were received for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

The lessee is generally responsible for the ongoing maintenance costs of the equipment under net lease arrangements.

 

The significant assets in the Fund’s portfolio are reviewed for impairment at least annually or when indicators of impairment exist. An impairment loss will be recognized only if the carrying value of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair market value. The Manager’s assessment for impairment (i.e. undiscounted cash flows used in the recoverability assessment) includes review of published values for similar assets, recent transactions for similar assets, lease terms, asset condition, adverse changes in market conditions for specific asset types and the occurrence of significant adverse changes in general industry and market conditions that could affect the fair value of the asset. No impairment charges were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

Net investment in finance lease

 

If a lease meets specific criteria under ASC 840 at the inception of the lease, then the Fund recognizes the lease as a net investment in finance lease on its Balance Sheet. The amounts recognized for finance leases consist of lease receivables, plus the estimated unguaranteed residual value of the leased equipment on the lease termination date, less the unearned income.

 

The residual values of the Fund’s significant finance lease assets are reviewed at least annually. If the review results in a lower estimate than had been previously established, the Fund will determine whether the decline in the estimated residual value is other than temporary. If the decline in estimated residual value is judged to be other than temporary, the accounting for the transaction shall be revised using the changed estimate and the resulting reduction in the net investment shall be recognized as a loss in the period in which the estimate is changed. An upward adjustment of a leased asset’s estimated residual value (including any guaranteed portion) shall not be made.

 

Maintenance reserve

 

Under the lease agreement for the Fund’s Bombardier CRJ 700 ER aircraft, the lessee is responsible for the costs of major maintenance on the components of the aircraft, including the engines, airframe, auxiliary power unit and landing gear at an approved maintenance facility in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance guidelines. The lessee is required to pay the Fund additional rentals, calculated monthly, which are based on the prior month’s flight hours and flight cycles. These additional rentals are set aside for future maintenance costs and are recognized as restricted cash on the Fund’s Balance Sheets when paid by lessee. As the maintenance is performed, and to the extent that the lessee has met all of its obligations under the lease, the lessee is reimbursed for costs incurred up to, but not exceeding, the related additional rentals the Fund receives from the lessee for maintenance. At the completion of each major maintenance event, the difference between the liability and reimbursement paid to the lessee is recorded as revenue if management is satisfied that the remaining reserve is considered sufficient to cover future maintenance or repairs.

MACQUARIE EQUIPMENT LEASING FUND, LLC

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

Cash is only collected for maintenance costs on the Fund’s CRJ 700 ER aircraft.

 

Revenue recognition

 

At the inception of a finance lease the Fund records the total minimum lease payments receivable from the lessee, the estimated unguaranteed residual value of the equipment at lease termination, the initial direct costs related to the lease, and the related unearned income. Unearned income represents the total minimum lease payments receivable plus the estimated unguaranteed residual value minus the cost of the leased equipment. Unearned income is recognized as finance income over the term of the lease using the effective interest rate method.

 

For operating leases, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Gains or losses from sales of leased and off lease equipment are recorded on a net basis in the Fund’s Statements of Operations.

 

Certain of the Fund’s leases contain provisions for late fees on past due rent. The Fund recognizes late fees as income when they become chargeable and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Allowance for doubtful accounts

 

The Fund is exposed to risks under its leasing transactions, including risk associated with a lessee’s creditworthiness, repossession and remarketing and the future market value of the equipment. The Fund evaluates the collectability of its lease receivables by analyzing the counterparties’ payment history, general credit worthiness and current economic trends. Although the Fund currently has no reason to believe that the lessees will fail to meet their contractual obligations, a risk of loss to the Fund exists should a lessee fail to meet its payment obligations under a lease. The Fund records an allowance when the analysis indicates that the probability of full collection is unlikely. No allowance was recorded as of June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013, respectively.

 

Write offs

 

The Fund takes write offs when it determines that a receivable is uncollectible and when all economically sensible means of recovery have been exhausted. No write offs were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2013, the FASB issued new guidance ASU 2013-08, Investment Companies - amendments to the scope, measurement, and disclosure requirements. The new guidance changes the approach to the investment company assessment in ASC 946 to clarify the characteristics of an investment company and provide comprehensive guidance for assessing whether an entity is an investment company. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Fund did not meet the amended definition of an investment company, and as such adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

 

3. LEASED EQUIPMENT AT COST

 

Smart Safe Equipment

 

In March 2014, as part of a master lease program, the Fund purchased additional smart safes for $189,066, including initial direct costs, from a U.S. safe manufacturer. These safes are on lease for a period of 60 months to a company that owns, operates or franchises restaurants. The safes are deployed in restaurants throughout the U.S. No leverage was used to finance this acquisition by the Fund. The lease term begins when the Fund signs the acceptance certificate and continues over the period of lease. At the end of the lease term, the lessee may return the equipment or continue to rent the equipment under a renewed lease agreement. The lease is recorded as an operating lease with rental income recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Fund has simultaneously entered into a Service and Remarketing agreement with a major U.S. cash logistics company who has been appointed as the exclusive service provider for the Fund and is responsible for billing, collecting and servicing the safes. In certain circumstances, the service provider has an option to request the purchase of the safes from the Fund at fair market value at the end of the lease term of 60 months. If the Fund consents to the service provider's request, fair market value in this case cannot exceed 29% of the asset’s respective cost.

 

Railcar Portfolio

 

In March 2014, the Fund purchased 45 flat bed rail cars for $1,032,186 including the initial direct costs. The rail cars are on lease to the U.S. subsidiary of a leading global manufacturer of wind turbines for a period of 60 months. No leverage was used to finance this acquisition. At the end of the lease term, the lessee may return, continue to rent or purchase the equipment for its fair market value. The lease is recorded as an operating lease with rental income recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

4. NET INVESTMENT IN FINANCE LEASE

 

The Fund’s net investments in finance leases primarily relate to racing track equipment, furniture, demo aircrafts and smart safes.

 

GA8-TC320 Airvan Aircraft

 

In January 2014, the Fund entered into a sale and leaseback arrangement with an Australian aircraft manufacturer where the Fund purchased four GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft for $2,097,647 including initial direct costs. The lease term is 48 months. The lessee has the option to purchase the aircraft from the Fund at any point during the lease term in certain circumstances for agreed upon amounts. If the repurchase options have not been exercised at the end of the lease, ownership of the aircraft is transferred back to the lessee on payment of $1,272,956 (for all four aircraft). The leases were classified as finance leases on the Fund’s balance sheet. No leverage was used to finance this acquisition.

 

In May 2014, the lessee exercised the early buyout option and repurchased one of the GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft from the Fund at an agreed buyout rate of 97.4% of the original cost of the aircraft to the Fund. Additionally, the Fund received a percentage of the proceeds over an agreed upon threshold from the lessee’s sale of the aircraft to a third party. The lessee paid a purchase price of $542,265 and the Fund recognized a loss of $8,900 on sale.

 

The Fund purchased an additional GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft for $360,500 including direct costs from the Australian aircraft manufacturer and entered into a sale and leaseback arrangement with the manufacturer for a period of 44 months. The lessee has the option to purchase the aircraft from the Fund at any point during the lease term in certain circumstances for agreed upon amounts. If the repurchase options have not been exercised at the end of the lease, ownership of the aircraft is transferred back to the lessee on payment of $232,430. The lease was classified as finance lease on the Fund’s balance sheet. No leverage was used to finance this acquisition.

Smart Safe Equipment

 

In connection with the Fund’s acquisition of additional smart safes in March 2014 as described in Note 3, one lease was classified as a finance lease. The cost of the safes classified as a finance lease was $21,084, including initial direct costs. The lease term is 60 months. The lease term begins when the Fund signs the acceptance certificate and continues over the period of lease. At the end of the lease term, the lessee may return the equipment or continue to rent the equipment under a renewed lease agreement. The Fund has simultaneously entered into a Service and Remarketing agreement with a major U.S. cash logistics company who has been appointed as the exclusive service provider for the Fund and is responsible for billing, collecting and servicing the safes. In certain circumstances, the service provider has an option to request the purchase of the safes from the Fund at fair market value at the end of the lease term of 60 months. If the Fund consents to the service provider's request, fair market value in this case cannot exceed 29% of the asset’s respective cost.

 

Sale of Office Equipment

 

In March 2014, on the expiration of one of the Fund’s leases, the lessee exercised its option to buy the equipment subject to the lease. The lessee paid a purchase price of $70,953 and the Fund recognized a gain of $51,445.

 

Net investment in finance lease (current and non-current) consists of the following:

 

   June 30, 2014   December 31, 2013 
Minimum lease payments receivable  $2,508,109   $1,786,413 
Estimated residual values of leased property (unguaranteed)   1,550,762    406,140 
Less: Unearned income   (688,560)   (328,014)
Net investment in finance lease  $3,370,311   $1,864,539 

 

Annual minimum future rentals receivable related to the Fund’s finance leases over the next 5 years consist of the following:

 

For the period July 1 to December 31, 2014  $510,065

As discussed in Note 1, the Fund is required to pay fees to the Manager and its affiliates for providing or arranging all services necessary for its operations, including those relating to equipment acquisitions and disposals, asset management and administrative, reporting and regulatory services.

 

The Fund pays the Manager and its affiliates’ fees for operating services performed including:

 

Acquisition fees of 3% of the purchase price that the Fund pays for each item of equipment or direct or indirect interest in equipment acquired, including under lease agreements, trading transactions, residual value guarantees, pay per use agreements, forward purchase agreements, total lease return swaps, participation agreements, equipment purchase options, other equipment-related transactions, joint ventures, special purpose vehicles and other Fund arrangements;

Payment of remarketing fees shall be subordinated until such time when investor return has been achieved. “Investor return” means such time when the aggregate amount of distributions to the members equals, as of any determination date, an amount equal to a pre-tax eight percent (8.0%) per annum internal rate of return compounded daily on all capital contributions of members;

 

Out-performance fees depending upon the extent to which investor return has been achieved prior to the time that investor return is achieved, cash distributions will be made 99.0% to the Fund’s members and 1.0% to the Manager. After the time that investor return is achieved, cash distributions will be made 81.0% to the Fund’s members and 19.0% to the Manager; and

 

Reimbursement of operating expenses depending upon the scope of services the Manager provides to the Fund.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Fund engaged Macquarie Rail Inc., an affiliate of the Manager, to provide due diligence services for its acquisition of the railcar portfolio described in Note 3. The fees were capitalized as part of the cost of the assets. No such fees were incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 the Fund engaged Macquarie Aircraft Leasing Services (“MALS”), an affiliate of the Manager, to provide management services for the Aircraft (Airbus model A320-200) lease described in Note 3. MALS is paid for its services from the management fee charged by the manager. The fees are expensed as incurred and included in the Fund’s Statements of Operations. No such fees were incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Fund has accrued, in fees payable (related party) on the Fund’s Balance Sheet, or paid to the Manager or its affiliates the following amounts:

6. EQUITY CONTRIBUTION

 

The Fund’s offering period ended on March 19, 2012 and the operating period commenced. As of June 30, 2014, the Fund had 9,430,343 shares of limited liability company interest outstanding (including the DRP shares and net of repurchase of shares). The subscriptions received include total contributions of $1,505,000 from the Manager, before offering costs.

 

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In July 2014, the Fund agreed to extend the lease for its Bombardier CRJ 700 ER aircraft for a period of two years beginning on June 1, 2014.

 

In connection with the lease extension, the Fund agreed with the lessee to offset the remaining receivables owed by the lessee of approximately $1.2 million against maintenance reimbursements owed to the lessee of approximately $1.3 million. No gain or loss was recognized for this transaction. This transaction was evaluated by management as a subsequent event and has not been reflected in the financial statements as of June 30, 2014 due to the timing of the lease extension and related agreement regarding the receivable satisfaction and liability extinguishment. The offset will be reflected in the Fund's September 30, 2014 financial statements.

Overview

 

Macquarie Equipment Leasing Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, was formed on August 21, 2008 for the purpose of acquiring a diversified portfolio of equipment and equipment leases. The Fund will also make investments in and loans collateralized by other equipment-related transactions which will allow it to directly or indirectly participate in the benefits and risks of equipment ownership or usage.

 

The Fund’s offering was for a total of 15,000,000 Shares at a price of $10.00 per share, subject to certain reductions. The Fund also offered up to 800,000 Shares pursuant to its Distribution Reinvestment Plan (“DRP”) at a public offering price of $9.00 per Share. The Manager has contributed a total of $1,505,000. The Fund’s fiscal year end is December 31.

 

The Fund’s offering period ended on March 19, 2012 and the Fund’s operating period commenced on that date. The Fund will continue to make investments in equipment, equipment leases and other equipment-related transactions. As of June 30, 2014, the Fund had 9,430,343 shares of limited liability company interest outstanding (including the DRP shares and net of repurchase of shares).

 

As of August 14, 2014, the Fund had 9,419,189 shares of limited liability company interest outstanding (including the DRP shares and net of repurchase of shares).

 

Second Quarter Transactions

 

GA8-TC320 Airvan Aircraft

 

In May 2014, the lessee exercised the early buyout option and repurchased one of the GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft from the Fund at an agreed buyout rate of 97.4% of the original cost of the aircraft to the Fund. The lessee paid a purchase price of $542,265 and the Fund recognized a loss of $8,900, driven by acquisition fees capitalized in the cost of the aircraft.

 

The Fund purchased an additional GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft for $360,500 including direct costs from the Australian aircraft manufacturer and entered into a sale and leaseback arrangement for a period of 44 months. The lessee has the option to purchase the aircraft from the Fund at any point during the lease term in certain circumstances for agreed upon amounts. If the repurchase options have not been exercised at the end of the lease, ownership of the aircraft is transferred back to the lessee on payment of $232,430. The lease was classified as finance lease on the Fund’s balance sheet. No leverage was used to finance this acquisition.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

 

Total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 increased by $371,042 and $1,472,401 respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 primarily due to an increase in rental income of $381,652 and $1,437,323 respectively. The increase in rental income was due to additional equipment purchased by the Fund during the second half of 2013 and in the first six months of 2014. These additional lease transactions include assets such as machine tool equipment, an Airbus A320-200 aircraft, smart safes, four GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft, and railcars. The Fund also realized a gain of $51,445 from sale of office equipment and a loss of $8,900 from sale of one GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft in the first six months of 2014.

 

Total expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2014 increased by $309,901 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013 primarily due to an increase in other expenses of $188,291, depreciation expense of $80,330 and operating expenses of $39,163. The increase in other expenses was due to one off transaction costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The costs were initially capitalized and subsequently expensed when it became more likely than not that the transaction would not be completed. Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased by $732,764 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense of $408,484, other expenses of $197,148, operating expenses of $68,157 and asset management fees of $58,975. The increase in depreciation and management fees were driven by the purchase of additional equipment during the second half of 2013 and in the first six months of 2014.

 

The Fund evaluated a number of equipment transactions during the first six months of 2014 and closed some of these transactions. To date, the Fund has not used leverage to finance these transactions. The Fund continues to pursue additional equipment investment as well as debt leverage opportunities on the existing equipment portfolio.

 

Financial Condition

 

This section discusses the major balance sheet variances from June 30, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013.

 

Total Assets

 

Total assets decreased by $750,706, from $82,732,255 as of December 31, 2013 to $81,981,549 as of June 30, 2014. The decrease in total assets during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was due to the following: cash decreased due to the acquisition of leased assets for a total of $3,693,250 and cash distributions to members of $3,767,172, partially offset by rents collected and rentals received in advance from certain lessees. Operating lease assets increased due to the aforementioned acquisitions, the increase was partially offset by depreciation expense of $2,499,137. Net investment in finance leases increased by $1,505,772 due to new acquisitions, partially offset by the sale of two finance lease assets, amortization of unearned revenue and the collection of rentals. Lease receivables decreased due to the payment of outstanding rentals.

 

Total Liabilities

 

Total liabilities increased by $442,916, from $5,096,833 as of December 31, 2013 to $5,539,749 as of June 30, 2014. The increase in total liabilities is the result of an increase in fees payable to related parties of $208,989, receipt of a security deposit for $90,000, an increase in other payables by $76,482 and an additional accrual for maintenance of the CRJ 700ER aircraft of $63,928. Fees payable to related parties increased due to accrual of operating expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and an increase in management fees related to the Fund’s additional asset purchases. Operating expenses due to the Manager are settled on an annual basis in December. Other payables increased due to additional accrued deal expenses for a deal the Fund did not proceed with.

 

Equity

 

Equity decreased by $1,193,622 from $77,635,422 as of December 31, 2013 to $76,441,800 as of June 30, 2014. The decrease in equity is primarily due to distributions to investors of $3,744,525, of which $3,124,452 were paid and $620,073 were payable as of June 30, 2014. Additionally, 29,041 shares were redeemed for $246,457 during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was offset by net income of $2,797,360 for the same period.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash Flows Summary

 

The following table sets forth summary cash flow data for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

   June 30, 2014   June 30, 2013 
Net cash provided by (used in) :          
Operating activities  $6,552,795   $5,113,989 
Investing activities   (3,108,370)   (25,435,602)

14
 

  

See the Statements of Cash Flows included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

 

As of June 30, 2014, the Fund had cash and cash equivalents of $8,639,766. The amount of cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 of $6,552,795 consisted primarily of rentals collected during the six months from assets on lease.

 

The cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 is primarily attributable to the purchase of five GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft for $2,458,147, purchase of additional railcars for $1,032,186 and the purchase of additional smart safes for $210,150. This decrease is partially offset by proceeds of $542,265 received from sale of one GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft and $70,953 received from sale of office equipment and the security deposit of $90,000 received from the lessee of the GA8-TC320 Airvan aircraft.

 

The cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 is primarily attributable to distributions to members and share repurchases.

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are held in operating and money market accounts at Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

 

Sources and Uses of Cash

 

The Fund’s main activities and principal use of cash has been to acquire a diversified portfolio of equipment, equipment leases and other equipment-related investments which are denominated in US dollars and are on lease to corporate clients around the world. We will also make investments in other equipment-related transactions which will allow us to directly or indirectly participate in the benefits and risks of equipment ownership or usage and make loans collaterized by equipment.

 

As of August 14, 2014 we have used approximately $96,391,971 of the offering and equipment sale proceeds to acquire the following assets:

 

   Purchase Price 
Participation interest in Commercial jet aircraft engines (sold in March 2012)  $6,500,000 
Aircraft Bombardier CRJ 700 ER   9,758,734 
Self-serve checkout equipment   2,097,353 
ETS-364B semiconductor test system (sold in May 2012)   383,898 
Furniture, office and other related equipments   811,400 
Furniture, office and other related equipments (sold in Nov 2013 & Mar 2014)   870,453 
Semiconductor manufacturing tools (sold in June 2012)   6,400,800

GA8-TC320 Airvan Aircraft (sold in May 2014)   572,274 
   $96,391,971 

 

Sources of Liquidity

 

We believe that cash generated from our operating activities and from debt borrowings, if required, will be sufficient to finance our liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future, including distributions to our members, funding of new investment opportunities, payment of management fees, equipment maintenance events, and administrative expense reimbursements. 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’ businesses that are beyond our control.

 

The Fund’s liquidity may be adversely affected by unanticipated or greater than anticipated operating costs or losses, including the inability of a client of the Fund to make timely lease payments or costs associated with off lease assets or assets available for sale. The Fund anticipates that it will fund its operations from cash flow generated by operating and financing activities. The Manager has no intent to permanently fund any cash flow deficit of the Fund or provide other financial assistance to the Fund.

 

15
 

   

The Fund also intends to incur indebtedness on future acquisitions for its portfolio. During periods of general illiquidity in financial markets, it may not be possible for the Manager to source debt on the Fund’s behalf at an appropriate interest rate, on appropriate terms, at appropriate levels or at all.

 

Distributions

 

The Fund began making monthly cash distributions on April 15, 2010 and paid cash distributions to our members in the amount of $1,902,741 and $3,767,172 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

 

While the Fund anticipates making monthly cash distributions, it may vary the amount of, or completely suspend making distributions at any time and without notice.

 

Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

 

Other than obligations associated with our investing activities or as set forth in our Operating Agreement, we have no contractual obligations and commitments, contingencies or off-balance sheet transactions as of June 30, 2014.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Accounting Policies, Accounting Changes and Future Application of Accounting Standards

 

See Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies”, in our financial statements in “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Part I, Item 1, of this Form 10-Q for financial information and further discussions, for a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies, including a discussion of recently adopted and issued accounting pronouncements.

 

Item 3.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

There have been no material changes to the disclosures reported in our Form 10-K, dated February 18, 2014.

 

Item 4.        Controls and Procedures

 

Under the direction and with the participation of our Manager’s President and Principal Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Manager’s President and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014. There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.        Legal Proceedings

 

In the ordinary course of conducting our business, there may be certain claims, suits and complaints filed against us.
