                    SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND DECEMBER 31, 1994


(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     (a)  Nature of Operations

          IEA Income Fund XII, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership
          organized under the laws of the State of California on August 28, 1991
          for the purpose of owning and leasing marine cargo containers. Cronos
          Capital Corp. ("CCC") is the general partner and, with its affiliate
          Cronos Containers Limited (the "Leasing Company"), manages and
          controls the business of the Partnership.

     (b)  Leasing Company and Leasing Agent Agreement

          The Partnership has entered into a Leasing Agent Agreement whereby the
          Leasing Company has the responsibility to manage the leasing
          operations of all equipment owned by the Partnership. Pursuant to the
          Agreement, the Leasing Company is responsible for leasing, managing
          and re-leasing the Partnership's containers to ocean carriers and has
          full discretion over which ocean carriers and suppliers of goods and
          services it may deal with. The Leasing Agent Agreement permits the
          Leasing Company to use the containers owned by the Partnership,
          together with other containers owned or managed by the Leasing Company
          and its affiliates, as part of a single fleet operated without regard
          to ownership. Since the Leasing Agent Agreement meets the definition
          of an operating lease in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
          (SFAS) No. 13, it is accounted for as a lease under which the
          Partnership is lessor and the Leasing Company is lessee.

          The Leasing Agent Agreement generally provides that the Leasing
          Company will make payments to the Partnership based upon rentals
          collected from ocean carriers after deducting direct operating
          expenses and management fees to CCC and the Leasing Company. The
          Leasing Company leases containers to ocean carriers, generally under
          operating leases which are either master leases or term leases (mostly
          two to five years). Master leases do not specify the exact number of
          containers to be leased or the term that each container will remain on
          hire but allow the ocean carrier to pick up and drop off containers at
          various locations; rentals are based upon the number of containers
          used and the applicable per-diem rate. Accordingly, rentals under
          master leases are all variable and contingent upon the number of
          containers used. Most containers are leased to ocean carriers under
          master leases; leasing agreements with fixed payment terms are not
          material to the financial statements. Since there are no material
          minimum lease rentals, no disclosure of minimum lease rentals is
          provided in these financial statements.

     (c)  Basis of Accounting

          The Partnership utilizes the accrual method of accounting. Revenue is
          recognized when earned.

     (d)  Financial Statement Presentation

          These financial statements have been prepared without audit. Certain
          information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
          statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
          procedures have been omitted. It is suggested that these financial
          statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
          accompanying notes in the Partnership's latest annual report on Form
          10-K.

          The interim financial statements presented herewith reflect all
          adjustments of a normal recurring nature which are, in the opinion of
          management, necessary to a fair statement of the financial condition
          and results of operations for the interim periods presented.



                                                                     (Continued)

(2)  Net Lease Receivables Due from Leasing Company

     Net lease receivables due from the Leasing Company are determined by
     deducting direct operating payables and accrued expenses, base management
     fees payable, and reimbursed administrative expenses payable to CCC, the
     Leasing Company, and its affiliates from the rental billings payable by the
     Leasing Company to the Partnership under operating leases to ocean carriers
     for the containers owned by the Partnership. Net lease receivables at
     September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994 were as follows:

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

It is suggested that the following discussion be read in conjunction with the
Registrant's most recent annual report on Form 10-K.

1)   Material changes in financial condition between September 30, 1995 and
     December 31, 1994.

     During the first nine months of 1995, the Registrant's cash balances
     increased by $635,260 to $2,796,049. Additionally, the Registrant's
     collection of outstanding lease receivables and sales proceeds has been
     favorable, contributing to the aforementioned increase in cash and cash
     equivalents, and to a $25,176 decline in net lease receivables due from the
     Leasing Company. Direct operating payables and accrued expenses, a
     component of net lease receivables, increased $78,411. This increase
     results from a $60,393 increase in accrued operating expenses and an
     $18,018 increase in deferred revenue from advance billings to container
     lessees. The reserve for container repairs covered under the damage
     protection plan increased $68,666 as a result of an increase in the number
     of containers covered by the plan. The amount due to the General Partner
     declined $722,000, as the Registrant continued to make payments to the
     General Partner for acquisition fees deferred during the build-up phase of
     the Registrant's fleet and operations.

     During the first nine months of 1995, the Registrant acquired 23 new
     twenty-foot dry cargo containers at an aggregate manufacturers' invoice
     cost of $56,925, replacing containers which had been lost or damaged beyond
     repair. The Registrant's cash balances at September 30, 1995 include
     additional sales proceeds from equipment disposals in the amount of
     approximately $205,000. The Registrant will use these sales proceeds in
     subsequent periods to purchase additional containers as replacements for
     lost or damaged containers.


2)   Material changes in the results of operations between the three and
     nine-month periods ended September 30, 1995 and the three and nine-month
     periods ended September 30, 1994.

     Net lease revenue for the third quarter of 1995 was $2,249,891, an increase
     of 6% over the third quarter of 1994. Gross rental revenue (a component of
     net lease revenue) for the quarter was $3,138,632, as compared to
     $3,115,543 for the same period last year. For the first nine months of
     1995, net lease revenue was $6,599,072, an increase of 2% when compared to
     the first nine months of 1994. Gross rental revenue increased 2% to
     $9,200,276 over the same nine-month period.

     Gross rental revenue increased slightly when compared to the same three and
     nine-month periods in the prior year, as the Registrant continued to
     recognize higher ancillary revenues, such as pick-up and drop-off charges.
     These ancillary revenues helped to offset the effects of a slightly smaller
     fleet size and stable utilization rates. However, competitive pressures
     within the container leasing market, as well as the Leasing Company's
     efforts to improve the credit quality of its customer portfolio, combined
     to create a resistance to higher average dry cargo container per-diem 
     rental rates. Accordingly, these rates remained relatively stable when 
     compared to the same periods in the prior year. The Registrant expects
     to gain long-term benefits from the improvement in the credit quality of
     this customer portfolio, as the allowance for doubtful accounts and related
     expenses should decline. However, average refrigerated container per-diem
     rental rates declined approximately 3% when compared to the same the three
     and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994, as many of the term leases
     originally entered into during the Registrant's initial year of operations
     have since been renewed at lower, current market rates.

</TABLE>


     During the third quarter of 1995, the container leasing market began to
     experience the effects of increasingly competitive market conditions,
     including, but not limited to, a resistance to higher per-diem rental
     rates, slightly lower utilization rates resulting from an expanding supply
     of marine cargo containers within the container industry, and the economic
     condition of the shipping industry, which has experienced a current trend
     toward consolidation. Accordingly, the Registrant expects a stable
     container leasing market during the remainder of 1995 and first half of
     1996.

     Declines in the provision for repairs covered by the damage protection
     plan, and the provision for doubtful accounts, were contributing factors to
     declines in rental equipment operating expenses of 23% and 2%, when
