NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. Organization and Limited Liability Company matters:

ATEL Capital Equipment Fund X, LLC (the “Company” or the “Fund”) was formed under the laws of the State of California on August 12, 2002 for the purpose of engaging in the sale of limited liability company investment units and acquiring equipment to engage in equipment leasing, lending and sales activities, primarily in the United States. The Managing Member or Manager of the Company is ATEL Financial Services, LLC (“AFS”), a California limited liability company. The Company may continue until December 31, 2022.

As of March 11, 2005, subscriptions for 14,059,136 Units ($140.6 million) had been received, of which 87,650 Units ($720 thousand) were subsequently rescinded or repurchased (net of distributions paid and allocated syndication costs, as applicable) by the Company through June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2017, 13,971,486 Units remain issued and outstanding.

The Company is governed by its Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement (“Operating Agreement”). On January 1, 2012, the Company commenced liquidation phase activities pursuant to the guidelines of the Operating Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Operating Agreement, AFS receives compensation and reimbursements for services rendered on behalf of the Company (See Note 5). The Company is required to maintain reasonable cash reserves for working capital, for the repurchase of Units and for contingencies. The repurchase of Units is solely at the discretion of AFS.

These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies:

Basis of presentation:

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q as mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the Managing Member, necessary for a fair statement of financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Certain prior period amounts may have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no significant effect on the reported financial position or results of operations.

Footnote and tabular amounts are presented in thousands, except as to Units and per Unit data.

In preparing the accompanying unaudited financial statements, the Managing Member has reviewed events that have occurred after June 30, 2017, up until the issuance of the financial statements. No events were noted which would require additional disclosure in the footnotes to the financial statements, and adjustments thereto.

Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Such estimates primarily relate to the determination of residual values at the end of the lease term and expected future cash flows used for impairment analysis purposes and determination of the allowances for doubtful accounts.

Segment reporting:

The Company is not organized by multiple operating segments for the purpose of making operating decisions or assessing performance. Accordingly, the Company operates in one reportable operating segment in the United States.

The primary geographic region in which the Company sought leasing opportunities was North America. The table below summarizes geographic information relating to the sources, by nation, of the Company’s total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and long-lived tangible assets as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (dollars in thousands):

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable represent the amounts billed under operating and direct financing lease contracts which are currently due to the Company.

Allowances for doubtful accounts are typically established based upon their aging and historical charge off and collection experience and the creditworthiness of specifically identified lessees and borrowers, and invoiced amounts. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectible are generally charged off against the allowance on a specific identification basis. Recoveries of amounts that were previously written-off are recorded as other income in the period received.

Accounts receivable are generally placed in a non-accrual status (i.e., no revenue is recognized) when payments are more than 90 days past due. Additionally, management periodically reviews the creditworthiness of companies with lease or note payments outstanding less than 90 days. Based upon management’s judgment, such leases or notes may be placed in non-accrual status. Leases or notes placed on non-accrual status are only returned to an accrual status when the account has been brought current and management believes recovery of the remaining unpaid receivable is probable. Until such time, revenues on operating leases are recognized on a cash basis. All payments received on amounts billed under direct financing leases are applied only against outstanding principal balances.

Investment in securities:

From time to time, the Company may purchase securities of its borrowers or receive warrants to purchase securities in connection with its lending arrangements.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies: - (continued)

Purchased securities

Purchased securities are generally not registered for public sale and are carried at cost. Such securities are adjusted to fair value if the fair value is less than the carrying value and such impairment is deemed by the Managing Member to be other than temporary. Factors considered by the Managing Member in determining fair value include, but are not limited to, available financial information, the issuer’s ability to meet its current obligations and indications of the issuer’s subsequent ability to raise capital. Based upon the Company’s review of its portfolio of investments in securities, no fair value adjustment was deemed necessary for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, and the three months ended June 30, 2016. However, a fair value adjustment of $9 thousand was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2016, to reduce the recorded value of certain securities to fair value. There were no investment securities sold or disposed of during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Warrants

Warrants owned by the Company are not registered for public sale, but are considered derivatives and are reflected at an estimated fair value on the balance sheet as determined by the Managing Member. There were no unrealized gains or losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, and the three months ended June 30, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded unrealized losses of $16 thousand on the fair valuation of its warrant holdings. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the calculated fair values of the Company’s warrant portfolio were deemed nominal. There were no exercises of warrants, net or otherwise, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Per Unit data:

The Company issues only one class of Units, none of which are considered dilutive. Net income and distributions per Unit are based upon the weighted average number of Other Members’ Units outstanding during the period.

Fair value:

Fair value measurements and disclosures are based on a fair value hierarchy as determined by significant inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs within the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for the asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis, generally on a national exchange.

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in the market.

Level 3 — Valuation is modeled using significant inputs that are unobservable in the market. These unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company’s valuation policy is determined by members of the Asset Management, Credit and Accounting departments. Whenever possible, the policy is to obtain quoted market prices in active markets to estimate fair values for recognition and disclosure purposes. Where quoted market prices in active markets are not available, fair values are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, broker quotes, information from third party remarketing agents, third party appraisals of collateral and/or other valuation techniques. These techniques are significantly affected by certain of the Company’s assumptions, including discount rates and

estimates of future cash flows. Potential taxes and other transaction costs are not considered in estimating fair values. As the Company is responsible for determining fair value, an analysis is performed on prices obtained from third parties. Such analysis is performed by asset management and credit department personnel who are familiar with the Company’s investments in equipment, notes receivable and equity securities of venture companies. The analysis may include a periodic review of price fluctuations and validation of numbers obtained from a specific third party by reference to multiple representative sources.

Recent accounting pronouncements:

In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-15 — Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 addresses specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the standard and its impact on operations and financial reporting. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 by the Company is not expected to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”). The main objective of this Update is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in this Update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendments affect entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the standard and expects the Update may potentially result in an increase in the allowance for credit losses given the change to estimated losses over the contractual life adjusted for expected prepayments.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). The new standard will require lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities arising from operating leases with lease terms greater than 12 months in the statement of financial position. Lessor accounting per ASU 2016-02 is mostly unchanged from the previous lease accounting GAAP. Certain changes were made to the lessor accounting guidance in order to align the lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Similar to the previous guidance, lessors will classify leases as operating, direct financing, or sales-type. Lessors in operating leases will continue to recognize the underlying asset and recognize income on a straight-line basis. Lessors determine whether a lease is a sale of the underlying asset based on whether the lessee effectively obtains control of the underlying assets. ASU-2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. While early adoption is permitted, the Company does not expect to elect that option. The Company expects to adopt the guidance in the first quarter 2019 using the modified retrospective method. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the financial statements and its operational and related disclosure requirements, including the impact on the Company’s current lease portfolio from a lessor perspective. Given the limited changes to lessor accounting, management does not expect material changes to recognition or measurement, but the Company is early in the implementation process and will continue to evaluate the impact. This adoption will primarily result in an increase in the assets and liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies: - (continued)

In January 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-01, Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2016-01”). The new standard provides guidance related to accounting for equity investments and financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. ASU 2016-01, among other things, (i) requires equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, (ii) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment, (iii) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, (iv) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, and (v) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the standard and its operational and related disclosure requirements. The Company’s implementation efforts include the identification of equity securities within the scope of the guidance, the evaluation of the measurement alternative available for equity securities without a readily determinable fair value, and the related impact to accounting policies, presentation and disclosures.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to customers. On July 9, 2015, the FASB approved the deferral of the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year and in August 2015, issued Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”). ASU 2015-14 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The Company expects to adopt the Standards Update. A preliminary evaluation of the impact of such adoption on the financial statements to the Fund indicates that such impact is virtually non-existent as the new revenue guideline does not affect revenues from leases and loans, which comprise the majority of the Company’s revenues. Management expects that accounting policies will not materially change since the principles of revenue recognition from the standard are largely consistent with existing guidance and current practices applied by the Company.

3. Allowance for credit losses:

The Company’s allowance for credit losses totaled $17 thousand and $2 thousand at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. All of such allowance were related to delinquent operating lease receivables. The Company had neither financing receivables in non-accrual status nor impaired financing receivables at both June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Impairment of investments in leases and assets held for sale or lease:

Recorded values of the Company’s leased asset portfolio are reviewed each quarter to confirm the reasonableness of established residual values and to determine whether there is indication that an asset impairment might have taken place. The Company uses a variety of sources and considers many factors in evaluating whether the respective book values of its assets are appropriate. In addition, the Company may direct a residual value review at any time if it becomes aware of issues regarding the ability of a lessee to continue to make payments on its lease contract. An impairment loss is measured and recognized only if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset are less than their net book value. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows are the sum of the residual value of the asset at the end of the asset’s lease contract and undiscounted future rents from the existing lease contract, if any. The residual value assumes, among other things, that the asset is utilized normally in an open, unrestricted and stable market. Short-term fluctuations in the marketplace are disregarded and it is assumed that there is no necessity either to dispose of a significant number of the assets, if held in quantity, simultaneously or to dispose of the asset quickly. Impairment is measured as the difference between the fair value (as determined by a valuation method using discounted estimated future cash flows, third party appraisals or comparable sales of similar assets as applicable based on asset type) of the asset and its carrying value on the measurement date. Upward adjustments for impairments recognized in prior periods are not made in any circumstances.

As a result of these reviews, management determined that no impairment losses existed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

The Company utilizes a straight line depreciation method for equipment in all of the categories currently in its portfolio of operating lease transactions. Depreciation expense on the Company’s equipment was $245 thousand and $292 thousand for the respective three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and was $522 thousand and $596 thousand for the respective six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Initial direct costs amortization expense related to the Company’s operating and direct financing leases totaled $1 thousand and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The Company reflected initial direct cost amortization of $1 thousand for both of the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

All of the remaining property on lease was acquired during the years 2005 through 2011.

5. Related party transactions: - (continued)

The Fund’s Operating Agreement places an annual limit and a cumulative limit for cost reimbursements to AFS and/or affiliates. Any reimbursable costs incurred by AFS and/or affiliates during the year exceeding the annual and/or cumulative limits cannot be reimbursed in the current year, though such costs may be recovered in future years to the extent of the cumulative limit. As of June 30, 2017, the Company has not exceeded the annual and/or cumulative limitations discussed above.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, AFS and/or affiliates earned fees and billed for reimbursements of costs and expenses pursuant to the Operating Agreement as follows (in thousands):

       
  Three Months Ended

     $ 174     $ 246     $ 352     $ 438  

6. Non-recourse debt:

At June 30, 2017, non-recourse debt consists of a note payable to a financial institution. The note is due in monthly installments. Interest on the note is at a fixed rate of 1.97%. The note is secured by assignments of lease payments and pledges of assets. At June 30, 2017, gross operating lease rentals totaled approximately $210 thousand over the remaining lease terms and the carrying value of the pledged assets is $518 thousand. The note matures in April 2018.

The non-recourse debt does not contain any material financial covenants. The debt is secured by a specific lien granted by the Company to the non-recourse lenders on (and only on) the discounted lease transactions. The lenders have recourse only to the following collateral: the leased equipment; the related lease chattel paper; the lease receivables; and proceeds of the foregoing items. The non-recourse obligation is payable solely out of the respective specific security and the Company does not guarantee (nor is the Company otherwise contractually responsible for) the payment of the non-recourse debt as a general obligation or liability of the Company. Although the Company does not have any direct or general liability in connection with the non-recourse debt apart from the security granted, the Company is directly and generally liable and responsible for certain representations, warranties, and covenants made to the lenders, such as warranties as to genuineness of the transaction parties’ signatures, as to the genuineness of the respective lease chattel paper or the transaction as a whole, or as to the Company’s good title to or perfected interest in the secured collateral, as well as similar representations, warranties and covenants typically provided by non-recourse borrowers and customary in the equipment finance industry, and are viewed by such industry as being consistent with non-recourse discount financing obligations. Accordingly, as there are no financial covenants or ratios imposed on the Company in connection with the non-recourse debt, the Company has determined that there are no material covenants with respect to the non-recourse debt that warrant footnote disclosure.

Future minimum payments of non-recourse debt are as follows (in thousands):

     
  Principal   Interest   Total
Six months ending December 31, 2017    $      124     $       2     $      126  
Year ending December 31, 2018      83             83

9. Fair value measurements:

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, only the Company’s warrants were measured on a recurring basis. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the calculated fair values of the Fund’s warrant portfolio were deemed nominal.

Such fair value adjustments utilized the following methodology:

Warrants (recurring)

Warrants owned by the Company are not registered for public sale, but are considered derivatives and are carried on the balance sheet at an estimated fair value at the end of the period. The valuation of the warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes formulation of value based upon the stock price(s), the exercise price(s), the volatility of comparable venture companies, time to maturity, and a risk free interest rate for the term(s) of the warrant exercise(s).

The fair value of warrants that were accounted for on a recurring basis as of the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and classified as level 3 are as follows (in thousands):

   
  Three Months Ended June 30,   Six Months Ended June 30,
     2016   2016
Fair value of warrants at beginning of period   $ 13     $ 29  
Unrealized loss on the fair valuation of warrants           (16 ) 
Fair value of warrants at end of period   $ 13     $ 13  

Impaired investment securities (non-recurring)

The Company’s investment securities are not registered for public sale and are carried at cost. The investment securities are adjusted for any impairment based upon factors which include, but are not limited to, available financial information, the issuer’s ability to meet its current obligations and indications of the issuer’s subsequent ability to raise capital.

9. Fair value measurements: - (continued)

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company determined there were no impairment adjustments to the fair value of marketable securities. However during the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a non-recurring fair value adjustment of $9 thousand. The fair value adjustment recorded in 2016 reduced the cost basis of an impaired investment security to zero. The 100% reduction in value was based on a market approach technique and uses inputs that reflect qualitative and quantitative information provided by the management of the investee. Such information indicated a significantly reduced value as evidenced by the purchase price of the investee as contemplated in its acquisition terms.

Under the Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the fair value of the aforementioned impaired investment securities were classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

Impaired lease and/or off-lease equipment (non-recurring)

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company determined there were no impairment adjustments to lease equipment. When the Company deems certain lease equipment (assets) to be impaired, the Company will record a fair value adjustment to reduce the cost basis of the equipment.

When fair value adjustments are implemented, they are on a non-recurring basis. Under the Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the fair value of impaired lease assets were classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy as the data sources utilized for the valuation of such assets reflect significant inputs that are unobservable in the market. Such valuation utilizes a market approach technique and uses inputs that reflect the sales price of similar assets sold by affiliates and/or information from third party remarketing agents not readily available in the market.

The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the guidance provided by the Financial Instruments Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions, set forth below for the Company’s financial instruments, are made solely to comply with the requirements of the Financial Instruments Topic and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related notes.

The Company has determined the estimated fair value amounts by using market information and valuation methodologies that it considers appropriate and consistent with the fair value accounting guidance. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Cash and cash equivalents

The recorded amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value because of the liquidity and short-term maturity of these instruments.

Investment in securities

The Company’s investment securities are not registered for public sale and are carried at cost which management believes approximates fair value, as appropriately adjusted for impairment.

Non-recourse debt

The fair value of the Company’s non-recourse debt is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based upon current market borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Commitments and Contingencies

Management has determined that no recognition for the fair value of the Company’s loan commitments is necessary because their terms are made on a market rate basis and require borrowers to be in compliance with the Company’s credit requirements at the time of funding.

Overview

ATEL Capital Equipment Fund X, LLC (the “Company” or the “Fund”) is a California limited liability company that was formed in August 2002 for the purpose of engaging in the sale of limited liability company investment units and acquiring equipment to generate revenues from equipment leasing and sales activities, primarily in the United States. The Managing Member of the Company is ATEL Financial Services, LLC (“AFS”), a California limited liability company.

The Company may continue until December 31, 2022. However, pursuant to the guidelines of the Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement (“Operating Agreement”), the Company commenced liquidation phase activities subsequent to the end of the Reinvestment Period which ended on December 31, 2011. Periodic distributions will be paid at the discretion of the Managing Member.

Results of Operations

The three months ended June 30, 2017 versus the three months ended June 30, 2016

The Company had a net loss of $51 thousand and net income of $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The results for the second quarter of 2017 reflect a decrease in total revenues and an increase in total operating expenses when compared to the prior year period.

Revenues

Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 decreased by $1.5 million or 67%, as compared to prior year. Such decrease was largely due to a $553 thousand, or 99%, decrease in other revenues due to 2016’s Q2 one-time deferred maintenance fees charged on returned equipment; a $504 thousand, or 45%, reduction in operating lease revenues, mainly the result of run-off and dispositions of lease assets; a $317 thousand, or 99%, decrease in direct financing lease revenues, largely due to run-off of the portfolio, as well as the sale of certain lease assets and a reduced gain on sales of lease assets of $149 thousand, or 58%, primarily due to a change in the volume and mix of assets sold.

Expenses

Total expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 increased by $22 thousand or 3%, as compared to prior year. Such increase was mainly attributed to a $107 thousand increase in franchise fees and taxes, attributed to an adjustment in estimated tax liability for prior year tax payments; a $56 thousand, or 156%, increase in railcar maintenance, related to the maintenance costs and wear and tear of the older equipment of the Fund’s railcar inventory; a $34 thousand, or more than 2 times, increase in professional fees related to year over year differences in timing and related billings for professional audit and tax services; and a $20 thousand, or 16%, increase in costs reimbursed to Managing Member and/or affiliates related to indirect cost allocations; offset, in part, by a $92 thousand, or 78%, decline in asset management fees to the Manager and/or affiliates, directly attributable to a reduced level of fund assets under management, reflective of the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Company’s continued liquidation; a $62 thousand, or 74%, decrease in storage fees due to a decrease in the number of railcars held in storage facilities; a $47 thousand, or 16%, decrease in depreciation expense, the result of run-off and sales of lease assets; and a $37 thousand, or 97%, decrease in interest expense resulting from a $2.0 million reduction in outstanding debt since June 30, 2016.

The six months ended June 30, 2017 versus the six months ended June 30, 2016

The Company had net income of $102 thousand, and $2.6 million for the respective six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The net results for 2017 reflected decreases in both total revenues and total operating expenses when compared to prior year.

Revenues

Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 decreased by $2.5 million or 61%, as compared to prior year. Such decrease was largely due to a $1 million decrease in other revenues from deferred maintenance fees charged on returned equipment; a $973 thousand, or 44%, reduction in lease revenues, mainly the result of run-off and dispositions of lease assets; a $681 thousand, or 98%, decrease in direct financing lease revenues, largely due to run-off of the portfolio, as well as the sale of certain lease assets; offset, in part, by a $126 thousand, or 63%, increase in gains realized on sales of lease assets mostly due to a change in the mix of assets sold.

Expenses

Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 decreased by $64 thousand, or 4%, as compared to the prior year period. The net decline in operating expenses was primarily due to a $129 thousand, or 70%, decline in asset management fees to the Manager and/or affiliates, directly attributable to a reduced level of fund assets under management reflective of the Company’s continued liquidation; a $92 thousand, or 97%, decrease in interest expense resulting from a $2.0 million reduction in outstanding debt since June 30, 2016; a $74 thousand, or 12%, reduction in depreciation expense, mostly the result of run-off and sales of lease assets; offset, in part, by a $146 thousand increase in franchise fees and taxes, attributed to an adjustment in estimated tax liability for prior year tax payments; an increase of $43 thousand, or 17%, in cost reimbursement to the managing member and/or affiliates related to indirect cost allocations, and a $40 thousand, or 45%, increase in railcar maintenance related to the maintenance costs and wear and tear of the older equipment of the Fund’s railcar inventory.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $5.9 million and $8.7 million, respectively. The liquidity of the Company varies, increasing to the extent cash flows from leases and proceeds of asset sales exceed expenses and decreasing as distributions are made to Members and to the extent expenses exceed cash flows from leases and proceeds from asset sales.

The primary source of liquidity for the Company is its cash flow from leasing activities. As the lease terms expire, the Company will re-lease or sell the equipment. The future liquidity beyond the contractual minimum rentals will depend on the Company’s success in remarketing or selling the equipment as it comes off rental.

The Company currently believes it has adequate reserves available to meet its immediate cash requirements and those of the next twelve months, but in the event those reserves were found to be inadequate, the Company would likely be in a position to borrow against its current portfolio to meet such requirements. AFS envisions no such requirements for operating purposes.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, which are based upon historical experiences, market trends and financial forecasts, and upon various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and at that certain point in time. Actual results may differ, significantly at times, from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Company’s critical accounting policies are described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies since December 31, 2016.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

The Company’s Managing Member’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer (“Management”), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, Management concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

The Company does not control the financial reporting process, and is solely dependent on the Management of the Managing Member, who is responsible for providing the Company with financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Managing Member’s disclosure controls and procedures, as they are applicable to the Company, means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control

There were no changes in the Managing Member’s internal control over financial reporting, as it is applicable to the Company, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Managing Member’s internal control over financial reporting, as it is applicable to the Company.
