Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 1996
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of ICON Cash Flow Partners L.P. Seven (the
"Partnership") have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and, in the opinion of
management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
accruals) necessary for a fair statement of income for each period shown.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and
regulations. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make
the information represented not misleading. The results for the interim period
are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Partnership's 1996
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
2. Net Investment in Leveraged Lease
On August 20, 1996, the partnership acquired, subject to a leveraged
lease, the residual interest in an aircraft. The aircraft is a McDonnell Douglas
DC-10-30F, built in 1986. It is on lease with Federal Express and has a
remaining lease term of eight years. The purchase price was $40,973,585
consisting of $6,000,000 in cash and the assumption of non-recourse senior debt
of $26,217,294 and non-recourse junior debt ("junior debt") of $8,756,291.
On December 31, 1996, the Partnership acquired, subject to a leveraged
lease, an aircraft on lease with Continental Airlines, Inc. The aircraft is a
1976 McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30 and has a remaining lease term of six years. The
purchase price was $11,320,923 consisting of $2,104,262 in cash and the
assumption of non-recourse senior debt of $9,216,661.
The net investment in the leveraged leases as of March 31, 1997 consisted of the
following:
Non-cancelable minimum rents receivable (net of
principal and interest on non-recourse debt) $ 910,000
Estimated unguaranteed residual values 24,818,000
Initial direct costs 1,428,392
Unearned income (16,857,255)
----------------
$ 10,299,137
Unearned income is recognized from leveraged leases over the life of the
lease at a constant rate of return on the positive net investment.
Prior to the acquisition of the Federal Express transaction, the free cash
flow, the rent in excess of the senior debt payments, was financed by an
affiliated partnership, ICON Cash Flow Partners, L.P., Series D, (i.e., the
junior debt). On January 29, 1997, the Partnership refinanced a portion of the
junior debt with a third party.

4. Investment in Joint Venture
The Partnership Agreement allows the Partnership to invest in joint
ventures with other limited partnerships sponsored by the General Partner
provided that the investment objectives of the joint ventures are consistent
with that of the Partnership.
On March 11, 1997, the Partnership and two affiliates, ICON Cash Flow
Partners, L.P., Series D and ICON Cash Flow Partners L.P. Six, (collectively
"the Members"), contributed and assigned $5,794,273, $6,712,631 and $6,582,150
in equipment lease and finance receivables and residuals with a net book value
of $4,874,857, $5,553,962 and $5,465,238, respectively to ICON Receivables
1997-A LLC ("1997-A"), a special purpose entity created by the Members. The
Members received a 30.67%, 34.94% and 34.39% interest, respectively, in 1997-A
based on the present value of their related contributions. 1997-A was formed for
the purpose of originating new leases, managing existing contributed assets and,
eventually, securitizing its portfolio. In order to fund the acquisition of new
leases, 1997-A obtained a warehouse borrowing facility from Prudential
Securities Credit Corporation (the "Facility"). Borrowings under the Facility
are based on the present value of the new leases, provided that in the
aggregate, the amount outstanding cannot exceed $20,000,000. Outstanding amounts
under the Facility bear interest equal to Libor plus 1.5%. Collections of
receivables from new leases are used to pay down the Facility, however, in the
event of a default, all of 1997- A's assets are available to cure such default.
The net proceeds from the expected securitization of these assets will be used
to pay-off the remaining Facility balance and the remaining proceeds will be
distributed to the Members in accordance with their membership interests. The
Partnership accounts for its investment in 1997- A under the equity method.

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. 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 March 31, 1997, 188,559.57
additional units were subscribed to, bringing the total units and capital
subscriptions to 314,470.52 and $31,447,052, respectively.
The Partnership's portfolio consisted of a net investment in
finance leases, leveraged leases, equity investment in joint venture and
financings representing 78%, 14%, 7% and 1% of total investments at March 31,
1997, respectively and 95%, 0%, 0% and 5% at March 31, 1996, respectively.
For the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 the Partnership
leased or financed equipment with an initial cost of $44,009,376 and
$4,894,1546, respectively to 15 and 9 lessees or equipment users respectively.
The weighted average initial transaction term for each year was 44 and 38 months
respectively.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were $1,558,019,
representing an increase of $1,482,884 from 1996. The increase in the revenues
resulted primarily from an increase in finance income of $1,050,175, an increase
in income from leveraged leases, net of $380,630, an increase in net gain on
sales or remarketing of equipment of $32,891 and an increase in minority
interest of $20,808. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in
interest income and other of $1,620. The increase in finance income and income
from leverage lease, net, resulted from the increase in the average size of the
finance lease portfolios from 1996 to 1997. The net gain on sales or remarketing
of equipment increased due to an increase in the number of leases maturing and
the underlying equipment being sold or remarketed, for which the proceeds
received were in excess of the remaining carrying value of the equipment.
Interest income and other decreased due to a decrease in the average cash
balance from 1996 to 1997.
Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were
$1,432,476, representing an increase of $1,364,200. The increase in expenses was
due to an increase in interest expense of $539,644, an increase in management
fees of $344,041, an increase in amortization of initial direct costs of
$301,372, an increase in administrative expense reimbursement of $145,296, an
increase in general and administrative expense of $32,753 and an increase in
minority interest in joint venture of $1,094. Interest expense increased due to
an increase in the average debt outstanding from 1996 to 1997. Management fees,
amortization of initial direct costs, administrative expense reimbursement,
general and administrative expense increased due to an increase in the average
size of the portfolio from 1996 to 1997.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 was
$125,543 and $6,859, respectively. The net income per weighted average limited
partnership unit was $0.40 and $0.15, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership's primary sources of funds for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 were cash provided by operations of ($341,011) and
$154,937, respectively, proceeds from sales of equipment of $1,890,143 and $0,
respectively. These funds were used to make payments on borrowings,
<PAGE>
fund cash distributions and to purchase equipment. The Partnership intends to
purchase additional equipment and fund cash distributions utilizing capital
contributions cash provided by operations, proceeds from sales of equipment and
borrowings.
<PAGE>
Cash distributions to limited partners for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996, which were paid monthly, totaled $767,568 and $48,957,
respectively, of which $124,288 and $6,790 was investment income and $643,280
and $42,167 was a return of capital, respectively. The monthly annualized cash
distributions rate to limited partners was And Of which And Was investment
income and And Was a return of capital, respectively. The limited partner
distribution per weighted average unit outstanding for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996 was and $1.09, of which and $.15 was investment income
and And $.94 was a return of capital, respectively.
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 three months
ended March 31, 1997, 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.
As of March 31, 1997, 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.
