1. Organization
ICON Cash Flow Partners L.P. Seven (the "Partnership") was formed on May
23, 1995 as a Delaware limited partnership with an initial capitalization of
$2,000. The Partnership is offering limited partnership units on a "best
efforts" basis to the general public with the intention of raising capital of
between $1,200,000 and $100,000,000. It was formed to acquire various types of
equipment, to lease such equipment to third parties and, to a lesser degree, to
enter into secured financing transactions. As of December 31, 1995,
subscriptions had been received for 13,481.43 units at $100 per unit, or
$1,348,143. The Partnership commenced business operations on its initial closing
date, January 19, 1996, with the admission of 26,367.95 limited partnership
units at $100 per unit representing $2,636,795.17 of capital contributions.
Through September 30, 1996 188,559.57 additional units were subscribed to,
bringing the total units and capital subscriptions to 214,927.52 and $21,492,752
respectively, at that date.
The General Partner of the Partnership is ICON Capital Corp. (the "General
Partner"), a Connecticut corporation. The General Partner will manage and
control the business affairs of the Partnership's equipment, leases and
financing transactions under a management agreement with the Partnership.
ICON Securities Corp., an affiliate of the General Partner, will receive an
underwriting commission on the gross proceeds from sales of all units. The total
underwriting compensation to be paid by the Partnership, including underwriting
commissions, sales commissions, incentive fees, public offering expense
reimbursements and due diligence activities will be limited to 13 1/2% of the
gross proceeds received from the sale of the units.
Profits, losses, cash distributions and disposition proceeds will be
allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the General Partner until each
limited partner has received cash distributions and disposition proceeds
sufficient to reduce its adjusted capital contribution account to zero and
receive, in addition, other distributions and allocations which would provide a
10% per annum cumulative return, compounded daily, on its outstanding adjusted
capital contribution account. After such time, the distributions will be
allocated 90% to the limited partners and 10% to the General Partner.
2. New Accounting Pronouncement
In March 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," which is
effective beginning in 1996.
<PAGE>
ICON Cash Flow Partners L.P. Seven
(A Delaware Limited Partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
The Partnership's existing policy with respect to impairment of estimated
residual values is to review, on a quarterly basis, the carrying value of its
residuals on an individual asset basis to determine whether events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be
recoverable and, therefore, an impairment loss should be recognized. The events
or changes in circumstances which generally indicate that the residual value of
an asset has been impaired are (i) the estimated fair value of the underlying
equipment is less than the Partnership's carrying value or (ii) the lessee is
experiencing financial difficulties and it does not appear likely that the
estimated proceeds from disposition of the asset will be sufficient to satisfy
the remaining obligation to the non-recourse lender and the Partnership's
residual position. Generally in the latter situation, the residual position
relates to equipment subject to third party non-recourse notes payable where the
lessee remits their rental payments directly to the lender and the Partnership
does not recover its residual until the non-recourse note obligation is repaid
in full.
The Partnership measures its impairment loss as the amount by which the
carrying amount of the residual value exceeds the estimated proceeds to be
received by the Partnership from release or resale of the equipment. Generally,
quoted market prices are used as the basis for measuring whether an impairment
loss should be recognized.
As a result, the Partnership's policy with respect to measurement and
recognition of an impairment loss associated with estimated residual values is
consistent with the requirements of SFAS No. 121 and, therefore, the
Partnership's adoption of this Statement in the first quarter of 1996 had no
material effect on the financial statements.
3. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting and Presentation - The Partnership's records are
maintained on the accrual basis. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.
Leases - The Partnership accounts for owned equipment leased to third
parties as finance leases. For finance leases, the Partnership records, at the
inception of the lease, the total minimum lease payments receivable, the
estimated unguaranteed residual values, the initial direct costs related to the
leases and the related unearned income. Unearned income represents the
difference between the sum of the minimum lease payments receivable plus the
estimated unguaranteed residual minus the cost of the leased equipment. Unearned
income is recognized as finance income over the terms of the related leases
using the interest method. Initial direct costs of finance leases are
capitalized and are amortized over the terms of the related leases using the
interest method. The Partnership's net investment in a leveraged lease consists
of minimum lease payments receivable, the estimated unguaranteed residual value
and the initial direct costs related to the lease, net of the unearned income
and principal and interest on the
<PAGE>
ICON Cash Flow Partners L.P. Seven
(A Delaware Limited Partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
related non-recourse debt. Unearned income is recognized from the leveraged
lease over the life of the lease at a constant rate of return on the positive
net investment. The Partnership's leases have terms ranging from two to seven
years. Each lease is expected to provide aggregate contractual rents that, along
with residual proceeds, return the Partnership's cost of its investment along
with investment income.
Investment in Financings - Investment in financings represent the gross
receivables due from the financing of equipment plus the initial direct costs
related thereto less the related unearned income. The unearned income is
recognized as finance income and the initial direct costs are amortized over the
terms of the receivables using the interest method. Financing transactions are
supported by a written promissory note evidencing the obligation of the user to
repay the principal, together with interest, which will be sufficient to return
the Partnership's full cost associated with such financing transaction, together
with some investment income. Furthermore, the repayment obligation is
collateralized by a security interest in the tangible or intangible personal
property.
Impairment of Estimated Residual Values - The Partnership's policy is to
review the carrying value of its residuals on a quarterly basis and write down a
residual if it has been determined to be impaired. Impairment generally occurs
for one of two reasons: (1) when the recoverable value of the underlying
equipment falls below the Partnership's carrying value or (2) when the primary
security holder has foreclosed on the underlying equipment in order to satisfy
the remaining lease obligation and the amount of proceeds received by the
primary security holder in excess of such obligation is not sufficient to
recover the Partnership's residual position. Generally in such cases, the
residuals would relate to equipment for which non-recourse notes payable were
outstanding. In these cases the lessees pay their rents directly to the third
party lender and the Partnership would not realize any cash flow until the
lessees have satisfied the initial note obligations and the equipment is
remarketed.
Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments - Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 ("SFAS No. 107"), "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments" requires disclosures about the fair value of
financial instruments. The fair value of receivables and non-recourse notes
payable approximates the carrying value at September 30, 1996. SFAS No. 107 does
not require disclosures about the fair value of lease arrangements.
Income Taxes - No provision for income taxes has been made as the liability
for such taxes is that of each of the partners rather than the Partnership.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
ICON Cash Flow Partners L.P. Seven (the "Partnership") was formed on
May 23, 1995 as a Delaware limited partnership with an initial capitalization of
$2,000. The Partnership is offering limited partnership units on a "best
efforts" basis to the general public with the intention of raising capital of
between $1,200,000 and $100,000,000. It was formed to acquire various types of
equipment, to lease such equipment to third parties and, to a lesser degree, to
enter into secured financing transactions. As of December 31, 1995,
subscriptions had been received for 13,481.43 units at $100 per unit, or
$1,348,143. The Partnership commenced business operations on its initial closing
date, January 19, 1996, with the admission of 26,367.95 limited partnership
units at $100 per unit representing $2,636,795.17 of capital contributions.
Through September 30, 1996, 188,559.57 additional units were subscribed to,
bringing the total units and capital subscriptions to 214,927.52 and
$21,492,752, respectively, at that date.
The Partnership's portfolio consisted of a net investment in finance
leases, leveraged leases and financings representing 36%, 34% and 30% of total
investments at September 30, 1996.
For the Nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Partnership leased
or financed equipment with an initial cost of $55,847,778 to 125 lessees or
equipment users. The weighted average initial transaction term was 44 months.
The Partnership commenced operations on January 19, 1996, therefore a
comparison of results of operations and liquidity and capital resources to prior
periods is not possible.
Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996
Net income for the Nine months ended September 30, 1996 was $195,586.
The net income per weighted average limited partnership unit was $1.65 for 1996.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership's primary sources of funds for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 were capital contributions, net of offering expenses, of
$18,591,229 from limited partners and cash provided by operations of $573,133.
These funds were used to fund cash distributions and to purchase equipment. The
Partnership intends to continue to purchase equipment and to fund cash
distributions utilizing funds from capital contributions and cash provided by
operations.
Cash distributions to the limited partners for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, which were paid monthly, totaled $834,659, of which $193,630
was investment income and $641,029 was a return of capital. The limited partner
distribution per weighted average unit outstanding for the Nine months ended
September 30, 1996 was $7.04, of which $1.63 was investment income and $5.41 was
a return of capital.
<PAGE>
ICON Cash Flow Partners L.P. Seven
(A Delaware Limited Partnership)
As of September 30, 1996, except as noted above, there were no known
trends or demands, commitments, events or uncertainties which are likely to have
any material effect on liquidity. As cash is realized from operations, sales of
equipment and borrowings, the Partnership will invest in equipment leases and
financings where it deems it to be prudent while retaining sufficient cash to
meet its reserve requirements and recurring obligations as they become due.
New Accounting Pronouncement
In March 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,"
which is effective beginning in 1996. The new standard is similar to the
Partnership's existing accounting policies relating to the impairment of
estimated residual values. As a result, adoption of SFAS No. 121 in the first
quarter of 1996 had no impact on the Partnership's financial statements.
