"1997-B Members") formed ICON Receivables  1997-B L.L.C.  ("1997-B"),  a special
purpose entity created for the purpose of  originating  leases and  securitizing
its portfolio.  On July 30, 1998,  1997-B  securitized  substantially all of its
equipment  leases and finance  receivables and residuals.  The net proceeds from
the  securitization  totaled  $40,806,901,  of which $30,930,921 was used to pay
down 1997-B's debt, and the remaining proceeds,  after establishing reserves for
expenses,  were  distributed  to the 1997-B  Members  based on their  respective
interests.  1997-B became the beneficial  owner of a trust.  The trustee for the
trust is Manufacturers  and Traders Trust Company  ("M&T").  In conjunction with

capabilities were rated by Duff & Phelps and Fitch,  both nationally  recognized
rating agencies.  The General Partner, as servicer, is responsible for managing,
servicing,  reporting on and  administering  the  portfolio.  1997-B  remits all
monies  received from the portfolio to M&T. M&T is responsible for disbursing to
the noteholders their respective principal and interest and to 1997-B the excess
of cash  collected  over debt service  from the  portfolio.  The 1997-B  Members
receive  their pro rata share of any excess cash on a monthly basis from 1997-B.

Item 2. General  Partner'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 units representing $2,636,795.17
of capital  contributions.  Between  January 19,  1996 and  December  31,  1996,
249,172.52   units   were   admitted   representing   $24,917,252   of   capital
contributions.  In 1997, 285,927.35 units were admitted representing $28,592,735
of capital  contributions  while 1,625.63  units were redeemed.  From January 1,
1998 to June 30, 1998 298,386.69 units were admitted representing $29,838,669 of
capital contributions while 600.00 units were redeemed, bringing the total units
and capital subscriptions to 857,628.88 and $85,762,888, respectively.

    The Partnership's portfolio consisted of a net investment in finance leases,
estimated  unguaranteed  residual value,  leveraged leases, equity investment in
joint  venture and  financings  representing  81%,  12%,  5%, 1% and 1% of total
investments at June 30, 1998,  respectively and 71%, 13%, 10%, 5% and 1% at June

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997

    For the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 the Partnership  leased or
financed  equipment  with  an  initial  cost  of  $35,217,661  and  $12,121,225,
respectively to 146 and 6 lessees or equipment users respectively.

    Revenue  for  the  three  months  ended  June  30,  1998  were   $3,617,625,
representing  an  increase  of  $1,768,705  or 96% from 1997.  The  increase  in
revenues resulted  primarily from the increase in finance income of $1,698,065 ,
an increase in interest income and other of $58,353,  an increase in income from
an equity  investment in joint venture of $27,921 or 21%, and an increase in net
gain on sales or remarketing of equipment of $1,798 or 29%. These increases were
partially  offset by a decrease in income from leveraged leases of $17,430 or 4%
from 1997.  The  increase in finance  income  resulted  from the increase in the
average  size of the  portfolio  from 1997 to 1998.  Interest  income  and other
increased primarily as a result of the increase in the average cash balance from
1997 to 1998. Income from equity  investment in joint ventures  increased due to
the Partnership's increased investment in joint ventures.

    Expenses  for  the  three  months  ended  June  30,  1998  were  $3,231,384,
representing  an  increase  of  $1,425,833  or 79% from 1997.  The  increase  in
expenses  was due to an  increase  in  interest  expense of  $621,393 or 68%, an
increase in management  fees of $303,601 or 98%, an increase in provision of bad
debts of  $175,000,  an increase in  administrative  expense  reimbursements  of
$125,426  or 91%,  an  increase in  administrative  expense in  amortization  of
initial   direct   costs  of  $104,002  or  35%,  an  increase  in  general  and
administrative expense of $96,372, and an increase in minority interest in joint
venture of $39 or 3%. Interest  expense  increased due to an increase in average
debt outstanding  from 1997 to 1998.  Management  fees,  administrative  expense
reimbursement,   amortization   of  initial   direct   costs  and   general  and
administrative  expense  increased due to an increase in the average size of the
portfolio  from 1997 to 1998.  As a result of an  analysis  of  delinquency,  an
assessment of overall risk and a review of historical  loss  experience,  it was
determined  that a $250,000  provision  for bad debts was required for the three
months ended June 30. 1998.

                                  June 30, 1998

    Net income for the three  months  ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 was  $386,241
and  $43,369,   respectively.  The  net  income  per  weighted  average  limited
partnership unit was $.48 and $.12, respectively.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997

    For the six months  ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 the  Partnership  leased or
financed  equipment  with  an  initial  cost  of  $81,651,301  and  $56,130,601,
respectively to 150 and 21 lessees or equipment users respectively.  The weighed
average  initial  transaction  term  for  each  period  was  54  and  51  months
respectively.

    Revenues  for  the  six  months   ended  June  30,  1998  were   $6,713,788,
representing  an  increase  of  $3,306,849  or 97% from 1997.  The  increase  in
revenues resulted from an increase in finance income of $3,163,442,  an increase
in interest income of $127,005 and an increase in income from equity  investment
in joint venture of $100,646 or 65%. These increases were partially  offset by a
decrease in net gain on sales or  remarketing of equipment of $31,093 or 79% and
a decrease  in income  from  leveraged  leases of  $53,151 or 7% from 1997.  The
increase in finance income resulted from the increase in the average size of the
portfolio from 1997 and 1998. Interest income and other increased primarily as a
result of the increase in the average  cash  balance  from 1997 to 1998.  Income
from equity  investment  in joint  venture  increased  due to the  Partnership's
increased investment in joint ventures.  The net gain on sales or remarketing of
equipment  decreased due to a decrease in the number of leases  maturing and the
underlying  equipment being sold or remarketed for which proceeds  received were
in excess of the remaining carrying value of the equipment.

    Expenses  for  the  six  months   ended  June  30,  1998  were   $6,080,148,
representing  an  increase  of  $2,842,121  or 88% from 1997.  The  increase  in
expenses was due to the increase in interest expense of $1,578,090,  an increase
in management  fees of $424,425 or 64%, an increase in  amortization  of initial
direct  costs  of  $216,719  or  36%,  an  increase  in  administrative  expense
reimbursements  of $181,780  or 63%,  an increase in general and  administrative
expense of $116,046,  an increase in  provision  for bad debt of $325,000 and an
increase in minority  interest in joint venture of $61 or 3%.  Interest  expense
increased due to an increase in the average debt  outstanding from 1997 to 1998.
Management fees,  amortization of initial direct costs,  administrative  expense
reimbursement  and  general  and  administrative  expense  increased  due  to an
increase in the average size of the portfolio  from 1997 to 1998. As a result of
an  analysis  of  delinquency,  an  assessment  of overall  risk and a review of
historical  loss  experience,  it was  determined  that a $400,000  and  $75,000
provision  for bad debts was required for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and
1997, respectively.

    Net income for the six months  ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 was $633,640 and
$168,912,  respectively.  The net income per weighed average limited partnership
unit was $.84 and $.49, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    The Partnership's primary sources of funds for the six months ended June 30,
1998  and  1997  were  capital  contributions,  net  of  offering  expenses,  of
$25,810,449  and  $10,226,311,  respectively.  These  funds  were  used  to make
payments on borrowings,  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.

                                  June 30, 1998

    Cash  distributions  to limited  partners  for the six months ended June 30,
1998 and 1997,  which were paid  monthly,  totaled  $4,289,724  and  $1,685,232,
respectively,   of  which  $627,304  and  $167,223  was  investment  income  and
$3,662,420  and $1,518,009  was a return of capital,  respectively.  The monthly
annualized cash  distribution  rate to limited  partners was 10.75% for 1998 and
1997,  of which 1.57% and 1.1% was  investment  income and 9.18% and 9.65% was a
return of capital  respectively,  calculated as a percentage  of each  partner's
initial  capital  contribution.  The limited partner  distribution  per weighted
average  unit  outstanding  for the six months  ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 was
$5.38,  of which $.79 and $.49 was  investment  income and $4.59 and $4.89 was a
return of capital, respectively.

    As of June 30, 1998,  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 capital  contributions,
operations,  sales of equipment and borrowings,  the Partnership  will invest in
equipment leases and financings and fund cash distributions where it deems it to
be prudent while retaining  sufficient cash to meet its reserve requirements and
recurring obligations as they become due.
