NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1 INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The summarized financial information contained herein is unaudited;
however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only
of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of such
financial information have been included. The accompanying financial
statements, related footnotes and discussion should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements, related footnotes and
discussions contained in the National Lease Income Fund 7 L.P. (the
"Partnership") annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1995. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30,
1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the full year.
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Leases
For operating leases, rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line
basis and expenses (including depreciation) are charged to operations
as incurred. In addition, rental revenue received on leases that go
beyond the firm term (lessee does not supply notice of termination or
renewal as required by the lease) is recognized as earned. For the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, rental revenue earned on a
month-to-month basis comprised approximately 75% and 22%, respectively,
of the total rental revenue recognized.
For financing leases, unearned income is recognized as revenue over the
respective lease term so as to produce a constant rate of return on the
net investment.
Leased equipment
The cost of leased equipment represents the initial cost of the
equipment to the Partnership plus miscellaneous acquisition and closing
costs, and is carried at the lower of depreciated cost or net
realizable value.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method, over the
estimated useful lives of such assets (five years for equipment for
management information and electronic laser printing systems and eight
years for telephone equipment, retail sales equipment, voice mail
systems, transportation and related equipment).
When equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and
accumulated depreciation (and any related allowance for equipment
impairment) are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss on such
sale or disposal is reflected in operations. Normal maintenance and
repairs are charged to operations as incurred. The Partnership provides
allowances for equipment impairment based upon a quarterly review of
all equipment in its portfolio, when management believes that, based
upon market analysis, appraisal reports and leases currently in place
with respect to specific equipment, the investment in such equipment
may not be recoverable.
<PAGE>
3 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
The corporate general partner of the Partnership, ALI Capital Corp.
(the "Corporate General Partner"), the managing general partner of the
Partnership, ALI Equipment Management Corp., ("Equipment Management")
and Integrated Resources Equipment Group, Inc. ("IREG") are wholly
owned subsidiaries of Presidio Capital Corp. ("Presidio"). Fourth Group
Partners, was the associate general partner of the Partnership through
February 27, 1995. On February 28, 1995, Presidio Boram Corp., a
subsidiary of Presidio, became the associate general partner. Other
limited partnerships and similar investment programs have been formed
by Equipment Management or its affiliates to acquire equipment and,
accordingly, conflicts of interest may arise between the Partnership
and such other limited partnerships. Affiliates of Equipment Management
have also engaged in businesses related to the management of equipment
and the sale of various types of equipment and may transact business
with the Partnership.
Subject to the rights of the Limited Partners under the Limited
Partnership Agreement, Presidio will control the Partnership through
its direct or indirect ownership of all of the shares of Equipment
Management, the Corporate General Partner and, as of February 28, 1995,
the associate general partner. Presidio is managed by Presidio
Management Company, LLC ("Presidio Management"), a company controlled
by a director of Presidio. Presidio Management is responsible for the
day-to-day management of Presidio and, among other things, has
authority to designate directors of Equipment Management, the Corporate
General Partner and the associate general partner. In March 1996,
Presidio Management assigned its agreement for the day-to-day
management of Presidio to Wexford Management LLC ("Wexford").
Presidio is a liquidating company. Although Presidio has no immediate
plans to do so, it will ultimately seek to dispose of the interests it
acquired from Integrated Resources, Inc. through liquidation; however,
there can be no assurance of the timing of such transaction or the
effect it may have on the Partnership.
In March 1995, Presidio elected new directors for Equipment Management.
Wexford Management Corp., formerly Concurrency Management Corp.,
provides management and administrative services to Presidio, its direct
and indirect subsidiaries, as well as to the Partnership. Effective
January 1, 1996, Wexford Management Corp. assigned its agreement to
provide management and administrative services to Presidio and its
subsidiaries to Wexford. During the six months ended June 30, 1996,
reimbursable expenses to Wexford by the Partnership amounted to
$14,640.
The Partnership entered into a management agreement with IREG, pursuant
to which IREG would receive 5% of annual gross rental revenues on
operating leases; 2% of annual gross rental revenues on full payout
leases which contain net lease provisions; and 1% of annual gross
rental revenues if services are performed by third parties under the
active supervision of Equipment Management, as defined in the Limited
Partnership Agreement. The Partnership incurred equipment management
fees of $10,539 and $22,051 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively.
During the operating and sale stage of the Partnership, IREG is
entitled to a partnership management fee equal to 4% of distributable
<PAGE>
3 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (continued)
cash from operations as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement,
subject to increase after the limited partners have received certain
specified minimum returns on their investment. For the six months ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995, IREG earned partnership management fees of
$14,679 and $26,700, respectively.
The general partners are entitled to 1% of distributable cash from
operations, cash from sales or financings and cash from the equipment
reserve account and, in general, an allocation of 1% of taxable net
income or loss of the Partnership.
During the operating and liquidating stage of the Partnership, IREG may
be entitled to receive certain other fees which are subordinated to the
receipt by the limited partners of their original invested capital and
certain specified minimum returns on their investment.
Upon the ultimate liquidation of the Partnership, the general partners
may be required to remit to the Partnership certain payments
representing capital account deficit restoration based upon a formula
provided within the Limited Partnership Agreement. Such restoration
amount may be less than the recorded general partners' deficit, which
could result in distributions to the limited partners of less than the
recorded equity.
In April 1995, Equipment Management and certain affiliates entered into
an agreement with Fieldstone Private Capital Group, L.P. ("Fieldstone")
pursuant to which Fieldstone performs certain management and
administrative services relating to the Partnership as well as certain
other partnerships in which Equipment Management serves as general
partner. Substantially all costs associated with the retention of
Fieldstone will be paid by Equipment Management.
4 DISTRIBUTIONS TO PARTNERS
Distributions payable to the Limited Partners and General Partners of
$175,339 ($3.50 per unit) and $1,771, respectively, at June 30, 1996,
were paid in August 1996.
5 EQUIPMENT SALES - 1996
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership sold certain
equipment for management information systems, which it had originally
purchased for purchase prices aggregating $761,518 inclusive of
associated acquisition fees, to various unaffiliated third parties for
an aggregate sales price of $41,790. Such equipment had net carrying
values aggregating $1,011 (net of allowances for equipment impairment
aggregating $129,811 provided for in prior periods with respect to such
equipment) when sold.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership declared a cash distribution of $3.50 per unit of
limited partnership interest totaling $177,110 for the quarter ended
June 30, 1996, which represented cash from operations of $154,495
generated during the current quarter and sales of $2,605 during the
current quarter as well as from reserves generated in prior periods. As
of June 30, 1996, the Partnership had operating reserves of
approximately $283,000 which was comprised of undistributed cash from
operations, as well as general working capital reserves of $250,460.
Although expense levels have been reduced, the Partnership anticipates
that most of its administrative expenses (i.e. accounting and investor
services including printing) are fixed and thus will not decrease
significantly during the Partnership's future operating period. Other
expenses such as insurance and fees to affiliates will decline during
such period.
As of June 30, 1996, the Partnership remained the owner of equipment
originally purchased for an aggregate of approximately $3,276,000
(inclusive of approximately $1,404,000 of equipment originally
accounted for as financing leases) of which approximately $1,742,000 is
leased on a month-to-month basis (on an original cost basis). Excluding
rents on a month-to-month basis and renewals, the leases of equipment
(subject to operating leases) with purchase prices aggregating
approximately $244,000 and representing approximately 16% of the
Partnership's monthly rentals generated during the quarter ended June
30, 1996, are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 1996, unless
renewed or remarketed. The Partnership's anticipated cash from
operations for the remainder of 1996, based on firm term leases in
place, is not sufficient to maintain previous distribution levels.
Distribution levels will fluctuate based upon the remarketing success
of the Partnership's equipment including any proceeds generated by the
sale of the assets and requirements for operating reserves, if any.
The Partnership provided additional allowances for equipment impairment
of $55,000 for the current quarter to recognize the loss in value with
respect to certain equipment remaining as of June 30, 1996, as well as
certain leased equipment sold during the quarter ended June 30, 1996.
The net carrying values above reflect such provisions.
Upon the sale of the remaining assets, the Partnership will have
liquidated all of its equipment portfolio. The Managing General Partner
will then prepare a final accounting of the assets and liabilities and
commence the dissolution and termination of the Partnership and make a
final distribution to partners.
At the present time, the level of fees payable to IREG for services
rendered to the Partnership and other affiliated equipment leasing
partnerships is declining. The effect of this situation cannot be
determined at this point. The management agreements between the
Partnership and IREG may be terminated by either party to such
agreements.
<PAGE>
In April 1995, the Managing General Partner and certain affiliates
entered into an agreement with Fieldstone pursuant to which Fieldstone
performs certain management and administrative services relating to the
Partnership as well as certain other partnerships in which the Managing
General Partner serves as general partner. Substantially all costs
associated with the retention of Fieldstone will be paid by the
Managing General Partner.
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
On February 28, 1995 Presidio Boram Corp., a subsidiary of Presidio,
became the Associate General Partner upon the withdrawal of Fourth
Group Partners, the former Associate General Partner.
Inflation and changing prices have not had any material effect on the
Partnership's revenues since its inception nor does the Partnership
anticipate any material effect on its business from these factors.
The Partnership had no outstanding material commitments for equipment
acquisitions as of June 30, 1996.
Results of Operations
Net income decreased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996
as compared with the prior year's periods, primarily due to the
reduction of rental revenues and the reduction of gains recognized on
dispositions of equipment in the current year periods, partially offset
by the decrease in expenses.
Rental revenues decreased for the quarter and six months ended June 30,
1996, due to the expiration of certain leases in accordance with the
terms of such leases subsequent to the prior year's periods, as well as
the sale or disposition of certain equipment during and subsequent to
the prior year's period. Equipment subject to operating leases
decreased from approximately $4,022,000 at June 30, 1995 to
approximately $2,932,000 at June 30, 1996 (both amounts at original
acquisition cost) due to the sale or disposition of equipment, which is
consistent with the Partnership's decision, in 1992, to cease
reinvestment in additional equipment and commence the liquidation of
the Partnership.
Costs and expenses decreased in the quarter and six months ended June
30, 1996 in comparison to the prior year as follows: (i) fees to
affiliates decreased due to the reduction in equipment management fees
as a result of a decrease in rentals (as defined, which include
operating and financing leases) on which such fees are based, as well
as to the decrease in partnership management fees resulting from a
reduction in the distribution of cash from operations generated during
the current year's period; and (ii) depreciation expense decreased due
to the elimination of depreciation expense resulting from the sale or
disposition of certain equipment during or subsequent to the prior
year's period, as well as to the fact that certain equipment was fully
depreciated during or prior to the current year's period. Additionally,
the Partnership recorded provisions for equipment impairment of $55,000
to recognize the loss in value of certain equipment for the quarter
ended June 30, 1996 compared to $75,000 for the comparable prior year's
period. During the six months ended June 30, 1996 the Partnership
recorded provisions for equipment impairment of $130,000 as compared to
provisions of $165,000 recorded during the prior year's period.
Net gains recognized in connection with the disposition of equipment
were $1,594 and $40,779 during the current quarter and six month period
ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the net gains recognized of $75,879
and $88,208 during the prior year periods.
